Product Description
Mackenzie Allen Philips' youngest daughter, Missy, has been abducted during a family vacation and evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later in the midst of his Great Sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment he arrives as the shack on a wintry afternoon and walk back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change Mack's world forever. In a world where religion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant The Shack wrestles with the timeless question, Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain? The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. You'll want everyone you know to read this book.

 The Shack September 5, 2008
"The Shack" was so different than any book I've read. I have read it twice! The first time through I was so excited that I read it too fast. It has the most unusual story Line that grabs you from the beginning to the end of the book. Little but mighty.
Great book to share September 5, 2008
I purchased a dozen copies of "The Shack" and sent them all over the country. Already I've had many favorable responses for a book that really touched my heart. I highly recommend it and believe it will change the way you look at life and your relationships.
It is hard to put down. September 5, 2008
Highly recommended. We've bought about 30 to give away already.
This is one you'll be glad you took time to read.
Thought provoking September 5, 2008
"The Shack" is a challenging, thought-provoking book. A man who has experienced a very tragic situation is invited by God to return to the place of the tragedy. Almost against his will, he is drawn back to the scene, where God shows up. The reader is not only drawn into the plot itself, but into expanding his understanding of the three Persons of the Godhead, their love and unity and relationship with each other and with the questioning believer. Wonderful, deep, emotional, and riveting after the first chapter or so.
An absolutely stunning work of "fiction" September 5, 2008

The reason I put the word fiction in quotes is because this book is all too real. There is a Willie and a Mack in all of us. "The Shack" opens the way to the conversations we are too scared, bitter or frustrated to have, and sheds the light of redemption upon the weary and skeptical all at the same time.
This book has really changed me in a positive way. It has changed the way I look at God, relate to God; my devotion and relationship with the Father is richer because of it. An amazing account of God's love, this book is a must read.
