The Shack Study by Rev. Scott Anderson is based on the book by Wm. Paul Young. The book itself gives us a fascinating perspective at what the relationship between the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit could look like and a setting or situation that could happen to any one of us. Rev. Anderson’s study plan breaks down all of the chapters and situations within and I can easily apply Mary Boys’ mapping grid to the study plan. The overall questions of what does it mean to be religious, faith and belief, theology and knowledge in the mapping grid are relevant to the question Rev. Anderson asks in his study plan. First and foremost, I am in support of any study plan of a book that has gathered so much attention and made so many people want to talk about God. This is the sort of study plan that could bring people of different denominations together for discussion as well as those who do not currently belong to a church, but have read the book and have questions. Second, I like the way the study addresses Mack’s questions of faith and belief in the book and opens these questions up for discussion. Third, I was pleased that the study plan was asking us to respond to some of the questions that were being posed to Mack. Mack is forced to really look at his relationship with God and the study plan gives us the chance to discuss these same questions. I enjoyed the study plan and would recommend it to any group wishing to explore their relationship with God.

‘The Shack Study’, written by Rev. Scott Anderson provides an extremely in depth look into the book ‘The Shack’. Anderson does a great job of breaking down each chapter of the book. Anderson’s study is broken into chapters that correspond to the chapters of the book. Within Anderson’s chapters, he provides an in depth summary of the book and provocative questions to get the reader thinking. Anderson, also, does a wonderful job of providing scripture, theological references and song lyrics relating what we have read to our relationship with the true Triune God. All in all, I think this is a great starting point for any book study.
I say ‘starting point’ for a few reasons. While I appreciate all the information, summaries and questions provided, the amount of content was almost over-whelming to engage in. The shear volume of this book study was surprising. With each chapter, Anderson provides extensive summaries that would be unnecessary if you were participating in this book study on a chapter-by-chapter basis. Along those same lines, the volume of this study provides the perfect place to start to begin to create your own book study.
My second concern is with whom and what type of group is this book study geared for? As I read through the book and the study simultaneously, I couldn’t figure out if this was a group study or individual? Geared toward Young or old? Male of female? Maybe this is a good thing, it works for all.
Again, I would like to say this book study is very well done. It has well thought out questions, excellent summaries and more. For some, I may be an excellent book study. If I were to use this study, I would use it as an excellent starting point; taking portions of this insightful study gearing it toward a specific demographic.

The Shack was complied with thoughtfulness, detail and compassion for the readers. Many internal and external emotions were dealt with in depth, also it was sounded by Biblical insight and pastoral concern. I appreciate how this study was directed to serve the Lutheran tradition and it could be a good support for a local church Bible study or a retreat for grief consulting.

I believe that this study is a very detailed look at "The Shack." I really appreciate all of the Bible references as well as the other texts that he brings in to the study. Rev Anderson also has some very indepth questions that can really help start the conversation between people about this very interesting and possibly life changing book. I really believe that you can use this study in an adult book study as well as a high school youth study. This can truly help shape the people in the study. I really believe that this is a very well written study guide.
