So healing, so full of truth about Dad's heart. It's been rather jarring, however, to have people come up to ME and ask me if I've read the book. Hey! I'm supposed to be the out of the box thinker, what's up with that? Yeah, people who I would NEVER have pegged as Shack readers / fans are really excited about the story. That's too cool. My friends are teasing me now that I'll have to find something else to be different. hahah. Tina We love this story. So healing, so full of truth about Dad’s heart.

I love the picture, the smiles, the story! I see Papa smiling too.

Those that take time to hear the Lord will probably hear more and more instructions to do what they do outside the accepted system. That system does not like it when they do not have control. Of course the message is important. However to me it is more important to see examples like this where Christians are not bowing down to a religious system. May it continue to have great success. It is obvious to me that a lot of prayer has gone into this. I also believe that through that communion with the Lord that the love of money will not entrap you with the success to come. I truly believe that many followers of Christ will experience similar things. The club I attend is really growing in the idea that the religious system is not what God wants. He wants fellowship and obedience to HIS VOICE. I just love the fact that people are successfully communicating the Christian message outside of traditional means.

Thanks for the heads up on the feature article. Wayne, thinking about everything that has happened around this story makes me think of the harsh emails I got shortly after the book was released from people needing to express their opinions to me about the book not being any good. It seems like so long ago and it hasn't even been a year yet. What a ride. Hey, it’s the three clowns that didn’t know what they were doing.
