Home - Plugging In - News - Shack Review
The fiction book called The Shack is a very popular book in Christian circles and although it is 'just a fiction book' as some have argued we believe people are influenced by what they read and as such even fiction books should not misrepresent Scripture.
We have serious concerns about the influence of The Shack and would encourage you to check out some of these reviews to see for yourself why we think this book is NOT a good read nor to be recommended.
- Here is a detailed overview of the book as well as a very articulate and detailed review of the significant concerns we would share - review is by Tim Challies - click here to read this this PDF.
- Gerald Hiestand has posted a very good review of some theological concerns with The Shack on his blog - click here to read his review.
- Here is an additional theological review following up on Gerald's - click here.
- Finally - here is a GREAT and detailed uncovering of the serious problems with this book by Dr. Albert Mohler. This is a link to his radio broadcast of April 11, 2008. The first 10 minutes (approximate) of his radio program are some commentary on the US election but PLEASE stay tuned through this for his commentary on The Shack is very insightful.
