The Shack

Has anyone read the book, The Shack? I just finished reading it, and, WOW! My life will never be the same after reading that book! Even as I was in the middle of reading it I could sense myself being changed and was more cognizant of the way in which I was interacting with God and others. I can't give away many details about the book other than it is amazing. I've just recently joined a 'book club' on The Shack, which I have never done, and I'm loving it!

Rachel my mom gave that book to Brian for his birthday. I know he'll never read it but one of these days I'll have to read it. I used to be such a reader- now I just read blogs! Maybe I ought to put this computer away and pick up a book!
Have a good weekend,
Jen

Ha Ha Jen -- I think I've exchanged reading books for reading blogs too. Problem is you can't interact with a book like you can with your fellow bloggers.

Rachel- I've heard good things about the book. You've convinced me that I need to go out and get it.

Rachel, if you are interested, I work with Abunga.com which is hosting an online chat with the author of "The Shack" on Oct. 22 at 2 p.m. EDT. It's completely free to join in at Abunga.com/AuthorsAtAbunga, so I hope you can make it!
