WE SAW 'THE SHACK'

Currently in Kerrville TX (Low 58 Breezy and Cloudy with some Sun High 79) 

We saw another movie while in Kerrville, this time we saw "The Shack".


If you are expecting a theologically correct movie then "The Shack" is not the movie for you. This is a work of fiction after all. If you can overcome this, and a movie that does does drag in spots, you are going to see a movie with some interesting spiritual overtones. On the surface the main character, Mack a church going husband and father, has a model life with a loving wife and 3 kids. Beneath the surface was a troubled childhood followed by another tragedy causes Mack to question in his believe and trust in God.

Getting an invitation from God to spend the weekend at "The Shack" at first Mack is reluctant to go but at last relents. What follows is a weekend full of symbolism, forgiveness and reconciliation. Whether the visit actually occurs or just in the mind you'll not find out but it does not matter.

This is a movie that probably isn't for everyone and is slow in some spots so it is difficult to give this a recommendation.

Till next time,

Bob and Jo
