Ohmygosh! Please read this book. If you have anyone in your life who is going through a difficult time, this book would be a great gift.
(This BLOG is NOT intended to be a book review site, but I have books on my mind this week).
Young's poetic and artistic license in fleshing out the 3 persons of the trinity was remarkable. I find myself thinging of Sarayu several times a day (read the book). Immediately after finishing it, I realized that I will NEVER understand the depth of the love God has for us. I have a better understanding of why bad things happen to good people, and that He will never leave us in times of trouble. Yes, these points and 10,000 more can be found in scripture, I just felt like God's hand was on this author. I can't help but feel closer to Jesus and have a better understanding of the nature of God by reading Christian fiction. (Yes, Marti and Kevin, I always return to scripture to verify details of any writings) If God wanted me to understand Him a little better by reading this little book, mission accomplished. I can't wait for the movie. Tell your friends.

MickiJerry!!! This is a great idea for a blog...Mike will be proud of you. =] Regarding "The Shack", you're the second person in the same week saying this book is a MUST READ for everyone. And you practically had the same exact feedback. I don't normally read fiction, but this one may pull me out of my rut!! Blessings to you and your family!
Love, Deb
