For those of us that go to a church that teach us that God wants us to have a relationship with him and others, this book won't really affect you that much. But fair warning if you are going through a tough time in your life and you keep asking God why? then this book will get to you a little bit.

Though the message was clear I was a bit disappointed with the murder mystery part of this book. Being in law enforcement I'm waiting to find out who the killer is, the evidence etc etc etc. The author takes you so deeply into Missy's murder, but the way the end it left me feeling empty. I wanted a name, a face, something, and there was nothing there. So that really disappointed me. And when Mack must forgive, I figured that Papa would bring the killer to Mack but it doesn't happen that way.

So again, not the most wonderful Christian book I have ever read, but not the worst either.
