We found ourselves shut inside a condo on Indian Rocks Beach, in Clearwater, FL, this winter during a freak storm of high wind and rain. Had it not been for the little library within the beach front unit, I may have gone crazy!
My granddaughter suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, Papaw, you have to read this book!"
That may have been may have been one of the highlights of my entire life. I've read the Bible through in several versions, but never had I completely grasped the meaning of a relationship with the Holy Trinity. "The Shack"*, by William P. Young, opened my mine to the great love of each part of God. It also made me more aware of the Holy Spirit, a part that we often overlook in our thoughts, action, and prayers.
PLEASE, PLEASE, read this book soon; it will change your life and relationship with everything!
Plus, there is a movie coming out soon, and you need to read the original thoughts of Mr. Young before you see it!
*A grieving father receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him to meet in the Oregon wilderness where his daughter has been abducted and murdered. 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?"
