I have just begun a new book, The Shack, by William P. Young. It has come HIGHLY recommended by several of my friends. I will be reading it. I have been warned that it is a very deep book. From what I know about it, I will laugh, cry, and learn more about the love of God then I ever thought possible.

The Shack is a fictional tale, yet I am finding that it clearly intens to communicate theological truths. From what I understand, the book was written not merely to share a story, but to communicate a theology and impact the way the reader (of which there have been a million-plus) thinks about God, suffering, the Church, and a variety of other issues about faith.

I'll keep you posted on my progress...I hope!
