  • For years tere were quesions about God that know one could ever anwsre after hours of thinking, and all the answered were answerd wth in 8 hours (The time it took me to read The Shack) Teachers were amazed that me a 13 year old was reading this book they said it was really avanced and I can see it. It was so confusing and I barely remember half of it, but tha means the next time I read it...... it will be that more amazing.

  • Great book!! I've grown closer to God after having read this book. I've recommeded it to othet friends are buying it and can't wait to read it. I can't puy this book down. What a journey for me. I love it!!! Don't hate!!!!

  • @raybaboon Well bless your heart,

    the truth may hurt but this work (the Shack) is truly heretical even in fiction, portraying the nature of God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit differently from what the bible teaches is breaking the second commandment.

    Making for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below?

    Have you ever bowed down to them or worship them?

  • @00Gladiator1 You ugly spawn of satan, crawl back to the infested anus from which you came from! Please take your mentally perverse and childlike understanding of syntax and context somewhere else. And God please forgive me for sinning against my brother.

  • GOD IS GOOD

  • Excellent book!! Don't judge!! People are bashing the book!! It's fiction .. Very good book!! People have been led to the Lord thru this book!!! God can be whatever or whoever he wants to be!! End of story!!!

  • @00Gladiator1 Young says @2:52 "even as believers we get the idea that he is that he mad at us or at least based upon our performance, how we are getting along with him and I think part of that also comes down to the core that if there is any place to run to in the middle of our pain or our disappointment or wondering what is going on in our life it's not to God as God the Father, we might be able to go to Jesus because he can understand us".

    Young has gone against the 1st & 2nd commandments.

  • @2:43 Paul says "we have had a lot of bad theology that have created a god that is not on our side"

    yes Bad Theology is why we have so many cults like Mormonism and Jehovah Witnesses. Paul thinks our understanding of the Trinity (God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit) is too hard to understand so Paul creates a heretical story redefining the biblical nature, characteristics and attributes of God to somehow clear things up?

    Paul has cheapened the biblical descriptions of God.

  • I can't even discribe my feelings during reading this book. I felt like I was there, with God, in this beautiful place that is greater than my big imagination. I consider myself as an artist and now I can really see that God gave me so many talents so that He can be through being me. The book has given me so many answers and now, more than ever, I'm not afraid of death. At all. I just want to give love to the people with my songs, texts and drawings. Is it so hard to understand?

  • I'm reading this book right know, i browwed it from my pastor and its AMAZING
