I love to read! I love reading mostly spiritual books because I learn so much from them. I am not religious by any means. My spirituality is based in Eastern Philosophy and Native American spirituality...it is soul healing to me.
I haven't been reading like I used to due to being on the internet so much. I had a meltdown last weekend or what I would rather say, a spiritual awakening and realized what an addiction that I have to the internet, Facebook to be exact. So after some heavy things that went down, I decided to go back to a healthier routine after work and read vs. staying up to the wee hours on the computer. I have to say that I feel much better in doing so.
I read this book last year but while multi-tasking on the computer and reading another book at the same time so I didn't really read it in depth and didn't get what I am getting out of it now. The Shack is a great read!
Here is the description of the book...
Mackenzie Allen Philips' youngest daughter, Missy, has been abducted during a family vacation and evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later in the midst of his Great Sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment he arrives at the shack on a wintry afternoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change Mack's world forever. In a world where religion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant "The Shack" wrestles with the timeless question, "Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?" The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. You'll want everyone you know to read this book!
