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 int he Oregon wilderness. Four
years later in the midst of his Great Sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, ostensibly 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 and quite possibly your own.
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!

When
the imagination of a writer and the passion of a theologian
cross-fertilize the result is a novel on the order of The Shack. This
book has the potential to do for our generation what John Bunyan’s
Pilgrim’s Progress did for his. It’s that good!

An
exceptional piece of writing that ushers you directly into the heart
and nature of God in the midst of agonizing human suffering. This
amazing story will challenge you to consider the person and the plan of
God in more expansive terms than you may have ever dreamed.
