You are welcome here…
There is a Wind… that wraps itself around the edges of necessity, tugging and pulling until those boundaries become torn and begin to move to the motion of that which is not visible.
If you are so inclined and would like to write a review for Amazon and/or Barnes & Noble, especially a 5 star review, we would greatly appreciate it.
I am more than pleased that you dropped by! If you would be so kind as to leave a comment or note, I would be appreciative. Let me know where you are from. If you are too shy to comment on a Blog, just go to ‘CONTACT‘ and you can scroll down to leave a comment or drop me an email.
I do try and respond, but the email load is increasing almost every day and I am already quite behind (about 1000 behind so far). I do eventually read them all, so please know that I am grateful you took the time. You might also get a response from Amy, one of my daughters, who is helping me organize my life. Please forgive the auto-response if you get one.
If you are looking for specific blogs, click on the Category buttons on the left column. The Shack category, for example, will take you to posts written specifically about the book, its background etc. such as "Is Mack Real?" In that article I explain that just as the cover indicates, The Shack is a work of FICTION, even though many of the elements are true. The article, "Fiction, Truth, Reality and all that stuff" uses a story to help us understand that while something might be fiction, it can still be true.
Explore a bit and you might find some surprises. Fun!! You might also be interested in pod-casts and interviews that I have been a part of. You can find these at the following links:

SHACK SOMEONE: Take a look at this incredible website from some folks that were touched deeply by the story: www.papaslove.org
I just posted a article that I have been working on. Every person has a right to an opinion, but there is much being stated that is simply not true - I still have no idea what a Black Madonna is. No, I am not a universalist!!! There is no ‘agenda’ behind my book - I wrote it for my six children. The Shack is not scripture, not a book on systematic theology, it is fiction. I love the community of believers and am not particularly bothered by how they choose to gather - I am the master of no one. People are people, and Papa has purpose in everything, and adores each of us.
Moving forward finally on the Audio Book - we will be having a professional do it…details to follow. Movie project still moving forward.
Thank you everyone for all that each of you is doing. This is about the character and grace-full heart of the one who knows us best and loves us most. To the praise of his glory!!
