Funny how Mars Hill, with a very conservative viewpoint of scripture takes a big hit. And the author of The Shack is shown as a good example.

Excerpt from “The Shack”:

“Those who love me come from every system that exists. They are Buddhists or Mormons, Baptists or Muslims, Democrats, Republicans and many who don’t vote or are not part of any Sunday morning or religious institutions. I have followers who were murderers and many who were self-righteous. Some are bankers and bookies, Americans and Iraqis, Jews and Palestinians. I have no desire to make them Christian, but I do want to join them in their transformation into sons and daughters of my Papa, into my brothers and sisters, into my Beloved. (p. 182)”

Re: The Shack quote

I despise that kind of babble. All new age channeling shares the same puffed up, watered down claptrap. Read Scripture and such nonsense just dissolves!
