Thousands of readers have read The Shack by William P. Young. It has been on the New York Times Best Sellers List for over 30 weeks and continues to be popular because readers keep talking about it. The Madison Public Library and Reverend Sandra Larson offer an opportunity for readers to talk about this book on May 12 and 19.
Reverend Sandra Larson, First Presbyterian Church in Madison, will lead a two-part discussion of The Shack at the Madison Public Library on Tuesday May 12 and May 19 beginning at 7:oo p.m. in the library's meeting room.
According to Reverend Larson The Shack will surprise, shock and inspire readers. The story begins with a family's tragedy. What follows is a spiritual adventure that gives a fresh and thought-provoking perspective on who is God; why am I here; and how to cope with tragedy. "This book's deep emotion and spiritual wisdom will nudge you to reflect on what you believe and what you value," states Reverend Larson.
Copies of The Shack are available at the Shepherd Shop and Books and More. Madison Public Library has several copies that are currently spoken for, however interested patrons may have their names added to the reserve list for future reading.
All interested readers are invited to join this discussion. Please contact the Public Library, 256-7525, if you plan to attend.
