Publisher's Summary After his daughter's murder, a grieving father confronts God with desperate questions - and finds unexpected answers - in this riveting and deeply moving number one New York Times best seller. When Mackenzie Allen Phillips's youngest daughter Missy is abducted during a family vacation, he remains hopeful that she'll return home. But then, he discovers evidence that she may have been brutally murdered in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later, in this midst of his great sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note that's supposedly from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment, he arrives on a wintry afternoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change his life forever. ©2013 William P.

I mean, I get the fact that it is symbolic, a metaphor, and a parable. Still, you would think people would be less satisfied with the easy answers that The Shack provides. I, too, grew up as a missionary kid. I experienced an eerily similar childhood to Wm. Paul Young. After reading his book, however, I am left even less satisfied and confident that God exists, let alone that she/he desires a personal relationship with me. To be sure, I have an ambivalent relationship with religion and religious institutions. In that sense, the book was refreshing. Despite areas of agreement, I can’t help feeling like The Shack paints an overly simplistic picture of the great sadness and the soul-searching that comes from a lifetime of religious brainwashing, abuse, and neglect.
