Mackenzie Allen Phillips's youngest daughter, Missy, has been abducted during a family vacation. Evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later, in the midst of his great sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note--apparently from God--inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment, he arrives at the shack on a wintry afternoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change his life forever.
This book is such a deep story of a man's spiritual journey. I found that at times I had to put it down just to digest all that I had read. It really makes you delve into yourself to see where you stand spiritually.
It scares me to read loose interpretations of the Bible when we, as lay people, aren't really sure that's what was meant at all. It would have been better to simply refer to the Holy Trinity as God, Jesus and The Holy Spirit instead of attaching ridiculous personas to them. I gave it 2 stars because at least it did have me thinking about actual Scripture and the basis of forming loving relationships.
I loved this book...I read it completely in 2 days and was a little sad when it ended. Religion can have different meanings to different people and it definitely is not just black or white. This book really made me think about things and appreciate life more deeply.
You know i have alot of issues with god and religions....my mom put this book in my hands...and i was captured...in the sadness the joy the anger the rage the ahh of it all...it was in a complete different view of things...i found this to be an amazing read on more than one level and i hope you all enjoy it. :
This is the most awesome book I've read in at least 20 years. I'd recommend it to everyone!!!
