The Shack Revisited: There Is More Going On Here than You Ever Dared to Dream

An excellent book interpreting gospel through a story unveiling deep truth about Father Son and Holy Spirit and their deep desire to bring everyone to have life abundant in their own circle of joy.

I wasn't sure what to expect when buying this book. But I enjoyed "The Shack" and it put a band aid on my own personal "great sadness" for about ten years. I suppose that ideally I had hoped that this book might offer a permanent healing. But far from it. The best bits are the foreword and the prologue, and the foreword is written by W. Paul Young!There isn't as much of "The Shack" in this book as I had hoped, and with the exceptions of a couple of chapters it is very, very dry. The author has a PH.D and so a lot of the theology went way over my head. This book simply didn't speak to me in the way that "The Shack" did. I did finish it, but found it uninspiring, at times downright boring. It lacks the inspiration behind "The Shack", which is a shame, as I had high hopes and high expectations.

I bought this book after reading The Shack. I was disappointed. As an Orthodox Christian I found the explanation of the theology written in The Shack not in keeping with traditional Christian teaching. A shame, as it could of been a good book. This is what happens when 'theologians' are disconnected from the life and Tradition of the early Christian Church.

I gave this book 5 stars as that is the maximum we can, however I found this to give a wider and deeper view on the Shack or maybe that should be on the amazing undeniable incredibly deep and unending love of GOD and the whole TRINITY for each one of us. This book will help you go further in understanding of how much love FATHER has for us a love that brings HIM to us to enable us to step into HIM. Sorry if these words confuse anyone what I am really saying is if you have read the Shack this is a excellent book to follow-up. As you can guess I do highly recommend this book which in my opinion is well worth the 5stars.

Very disappointed and could not read to the end. It is a betrayal of someone else’s opinion of the book which took away my enjoyment of the original book

If you are religious then this book helps you take what you thought you knew about God and chuck it out the window and begin to rethink again. Not with heresy but with well reasoned and better thought through understanding. It is the best life transformation you will ever experience!
