Book Review of The Shack

The Shack
lexicon4 avatar reviewed on


I would never give this book to anyone, especially a nonbeliever, or a new Christian. It is full of blasphemous statements and ideas that seem to weave together (in a vague, horrible attempt) Christianity with new age "religions." God the Father is not a big black woman who loves to cook, the Holy Spirit is not an Asian woman who seems to float gently on the breeze, and Jesus Christ is not a white carpenter in worn blue jeans. We need to know and love God the Father, the Spirit, and Christ, but to reduce them to such humanistic forms is to deny His/Their Divine Nature. I burned my copy, and will beg you, dear reader, do NOT order this book.
