If this was commented on in 2009, I am a late-comer to the comments; however, I was suckered into reading 'The Shack' awhile ago, and like you, David, found it 'way out of line with sound biblical teachings.

Your dead on. I enjoyed the story very much, but I can't recomend the book because I am afraid the mischaracterizations of God are so powerfully tempting to believe, that many may be sucked in!

So would it be accurate to say you enjoyed reading the book, but found the theology deeply lacking?

Do you think it contains heresy?
