Re: The Shack

I read the book, and if you read it like you would read This Present Darkness, without looking for theology you might get something out of it. The over all theme that God loves us and is in control is a good one.

The negatives - Neither the author nor his publishers (former pastors) attend an "organized church." There are places in the book that his antagonism toward church comes out. When I found out after reading the book that this was the case I wasn't surprised, it is pretty evident in the book that he is antagonistic towards the church.
