Book Review of The Shack

The Shack
reviewed The Shack - Harmless Story or Dangerous Theology? on + 5 more book reviews


"I just finished reading ""The Shack"", and was planning on being mildly pleased at very best, both from a literary and theological perspective. Man was I pleasantly even overwhelmingly surprised! A fabulous read with great truths written with a boldness that doesn't avoid the difficult questions.

I've heard a lot of discussion around this book being dangerous. The only danger from this book is the danger of having one's paradigms overturned and being lead into a fulfilling relationship with God. If you take what the author puts forth, word for word and in context, it lines up with Bible on both a high level and in-depth comparison.
I do think it is quite capable of making people uncomfortable in it's approach to God based on relationship rather than rules or religion.

For a good story full of encouragement and truth, I would recommend ""The Shack"" to anyone."
