Encountering God in the Shack

The Shack was written in 2007 by Paul Young and tells the story of a Christian called Mack called to meet with God following his despair at the horrific murder of his beloved daughter Missy. Almost a modern equivalent of John Bunyan’s Pilgrim’s ProgressThe Shack deals in story form with the most profound reflections upon the issue of suffering but also the nature of God as Trinity and a number of other themes as well. The help which a number of Christ Church members have already received from the book has prompted this sermon series during which we will seek to reflect upon the biblical truths that The Shack is seeking to present.
