![]() ![]() God will not provide for me, so I spend more time away from my family to provide for them.Unfortunately while we can keep them hidden from everyday thought, when push comes to shove we act out of those lies. ![]() ![]() These lies often live deep within our hearts which we keep safely hidden from others because we intellectually know they do not match the words of truth in Scripture. The unhealed pain and unresolved issues of our lives have a tendency to feed lies into our hearts about ourselves and/or about God. But, this beginning is necessary to understand the depths of struggle Mack will have later on trying to balance the anger he feels and the emotions he feels are being asked of him. This may be hard for some to read – for those who emotionally connect with stories like me. ![]() As with any good book, it begins with setting the stage. The story follows the character Mack through his struggle with coming to grips with a loving God and deep tragedy. (see our blog post on We Love Because God First Loved Us). The story does a great job getting past our preconceived ideas about God and challenges the lies that we believe about Him. I just finished reading The Shack by William Paul Young and highly recommend it to anyone. ![]()
