The Shack
William Young
What started out as a fun weekend camp out turned into the worst weekend of Mackenzie Phillip's life. His young daughter Missy was abducted and killed by a serial killer called the Little LadkyKiller. One year after that they find evidence that Missy was held in a tumble down shack. These events haunt Mack's life for a very long time, when suddenly he receives a strange letter from God telling him to go back to the shack. Mack goes to the shack where he encounters three beings, God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. Together the three of them have to teach Mack to forgive the killer, learn how to trust God again, and how to let go of his Great Sadness.
This book was very good and hit on some very strong theological points. It is a very good read for anyone who is interested in studying religion or just finding a good book about coming back to your life after a traumatic experience. My favorite part of this book was when Mack finally forgave the killer for killing Missy. This is a good book for adults and teens, because it can get very deep and confusing.
