It has been 45 days since ordering. I have been billed. I filed a complaint with Amazon and the vendor and received no response. I am frustrated taht there is no way to contact Amazon direct about the order and talk to a live person. Sam C

This book is far from a Christian view. If you want to know what God is REALLY like you need to read the BIBLE.
The Shack November 17, 2008 Mark W. Dixon, HHP (Newport Beach CA USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
This short novel will be a welcome relief to anyone laboring under an understanding of God as a gray old man sitting up in the clouds, causing or allowing things to happen like some holy puppeteer. I've always wondered about all the rituals and doctrines invented by humans in a feeble attempt to figure out how they got here, what they are to do while they're here, where they're going when they die and what will happen to them when they get there, and The Shack has helped to lift a veil from my spiritual eyes, a surprisingly profound story that speaks a simple truth I can hear. I highly recommend The Shack to any person seeking a truth they have not found in a church pew.

When Emotion-packed "Sheep" Fiction Cloaks a Wolf's Blasphemy November 17, 2008 George Wearteborough (Lewisville - Double Oak, Texas United States) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful
Religious humanism at a new and putrid low, purportedly teaching the "truth" about forgiveness, yet only delivering a cheap (bait-and-switch) counterfeit to the reader. Many insist on eating nutritious food, and drinking safe (potable) water, yet would nonetheless read and even recommend the theological pollution (marketed as "The Shack") passing as "sheep" fiction, when (in theological reality) this humanistic novel is nothing but a "wolf-in-sheep's-clothing" product that mischaracterizes the triune God of the Bible as a sub-divine trinity of happy-silly-emotional (and truth-evading) HUMAN fools: 1 man, 2 women, with one of the females sporting a masculine name. In "The Shack", fiction-pressed emotions are used to disarm and dismiss doctrinal truth, employing a blasphemously farcical (and minimally "holy") "trinity", who conveniently deny that human sin is divinely punished, and who are repeatedly "emerging" in silly and human-like ways that somehow can't seem to match the doctrinal content of the Holy Bible's teachings about Who God really is and how God reveals Himself to mankind. This is post-modern false prophecy "emerging" in all its anti-Biblical pollution and epistemological bankrupty, exposed for anyone duped into reading it. If you begin to read and then want to vomit, there is hope for you! If not, shame on you -- try to repent! God said that He honors His Word even above His own name, so you can can guess what He (not "She") thinks about this humanistic Trinity-trivializing, Bible-denying "literature".
