Women's Book Club Note: The last meeting of the Women’s Book Club (until next fall) is May 12th. |
| We will be starting up again this fall on September 30th, with a new fiction novel called, “The Shack”. This selection does not include a bible study. We are meeting on Tuesday afternoons (every other) at 1:30 pm for about 1 to 2 hours at Kathy Olson’s home…please call Crossing Point for directions. This book can be purchased at a number of bookstores, such as Northwestern Books, Back to Books in Hudson, Amazon.com, or Target. Bring your book, bible, paper, and a pen/pencil…come join us! This is a quick description of the book--- Mackenzie Allen Philips' youngest daughter, Missy, has been abducted during a family vacation and evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later in the midst of his "Great Sadness," Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment he arrives at the shack on a wintry afternoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change Mack's world forever. In a world where religion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant "The Shack" wrestles with the timeless question, "Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?" The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. |
