The Shack

I mentioned previously that I'm reading The Shack. This book is a profoundly impacting book. So much so, I wanted to share it with my wife. Last night I began reading it aloud to Carrie, so we could share it together.

I can't say that I was ready for Chapter 11. At times, I was forced to stop reading as I simply couldn't continue. Carrie and I wept together as we read and considered the message that was being shared. I'm glad I wasn't in a public place as that may have been a little strange trying to explain to someone else.

Don't worry, I won't spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it yet. But I strongly urge you to read this book if you haven't. Don't get distracted by trying to dissect the theology, but allow the bigger message to hit you between the eyes as it has done to me.
