I read this book in jail. I randomly picked it up and it changed my life. I had a very hard heart towards God at the time calloused by drug use and the recent loss of my grandpa, who I was very close with. The book softened my heart towards God, and I became a Christian just a few months later after a near-fatal overdose. God will never leave you or forsake you, just turn to Him - let Him love you and heal you.

[@junglee9646]

I'm glad that you found your way through Him. Do you recommend that I send this to my friend who is incarcerated?

Just found out about this movie on Netflix & I could not fight back the tears. I don’t care how tough & bad you think you are in this world, this movie should be your wake up call to trust in the Holy Spirit & have faith & learn how to live better in all aspects!!! Beautiful movie, actors & actresses!!

[@carpenterscollector2910]

Well said Jeff :) i`m 60 this year and whilst i`ve been an emotional wreck anyway over the last few years, this movie reduced me to cry like a five year old. Subject matter aside and tough to watch in that respect, it was one of the most beautiful, soulful films i`ve ever watched and like alot of the comments, i learned alot from it! I think every person on the planet should watch this movie and perhaps we could all start loving each, rather than trying to rip each others heads off :) All the best Jeff and thank you Netflix.

I just watched this movie last night and I had no idea what I was in for. I am not a "deeply" religious person but I do believe in God and consider myself a Christian. After this movie ended I prayed to God and cried the entire time I was praying. We have no right to judge anyone as our minds cant comprehend the gravity of what every single decision we make means no matter how big or small. If you watch this and dont find yourself closer to God then i weep for you. Be a force for good in this world and you will be rewarded more than you could imagine. This is a must watch but be prepared and bring a few tissues with you when you sit down.

You Atheists need to stop commenting on a CHRISTIAN movie trailer. We get it, you don't believe in God. It doesn't mean you need to shove it in our faces. Most atheists complain about us pushing our faith in their faces when they are do the exact same to us. Why can't we all just respect each others religion instead of causing violence and hate over it??... As for the actual video, this movie brought tears to me eyes. And I rarely cry with movies. And not just because of the tragedy. Also because of how beautifully well-put together it was. Awesome movie!!

As an Atheist, I agree with what you're saying. Tho I havent seen any atheist comments yet.

You actually do have a point. I never considered that. That is true. Atheists get hormonal and faint when anyone uses the word God, but then they want you to stop talking about it because they don’t like it. Not all Atheists of course. And not all Christians. There are good, the bad, and the annoying in all groups.

I think what he is referring to (if you've ever read the book) is that most struggle with the whole "God is good" thing and as much as they want to believe it, the way we see life becomes a hinderance.

May God (Allah) guide everyone astray. Whoever searches the books knows very well that the Trinity, divinity, and humanity are not present in them, and there is no mention of them or of Christ’s confession that he is God, God forbid. They are all interpretations of priests, as if God needs explanations for the basis of his divinity. In all religions there are differences, but the origin is clear with regard to God, except for Christianity. God. There are throughout history conflicts over his divinity and identity. Christ himself was calling on God and asking Him like any human being. God guided everyone to His unity and satisfaction Whoever searches for answers to doubts about Islam will find them, but most people want what their priests allow

Shalom BLD Lightpainting. You type : "He (God, His Son, and Spirit) only wish to daily walk with you out of a personal friendship". So would you tell your brothers and sisters He wants us, ..... yes, needs us to stop sinning? And when we sin that we need to repent. Would you tell your brothers and sisters He asks for holiness (separateness from the world)? Would you tell your brothers and sisters that besides their friend He is their King, and they are His subjects? Would you tell people in general that the only way to the Father is through His Son? I simply ask this because i love people but God even more so. Ha Shem doesn't need me asking you this, but He lets His people know they have the responsibility to do so.

[@autumnemerald1019]

@cosmiq-空 God isn't the one who causes bad things to happen. When people say "the Lord works in mysterious ways," it means that he provides lessons to us in manners that we probably wouldn't suspect at first glance. He has a plan and that plan can never be destroyed. The reason as to why all of these tragedies and traumatic events exist is because we are living in a fractured creation. We have free will, which God gave to us so we could willingly make the choice to either follow him or the world. So, he's not the one at fault for this fallen world. It's our fault that it's destroyed. God steps in and takes advantage of the storms that we experience, using them to make us stronger and to provide us with lessons. That's the true meaning behind "the Lord works in mysterious ways." Sometimes, you'll experience tests. Sometimes, you'll fall and learn a lesson. And other times, you'll pick up on the lesson rather quickly instead of stumbling beforehand. In the end, the teacher is always quiet during the test ... and God really is magnificent.

[@mailethompson7076]

cosmiq-空 the lord doesnt cause bad things to happen to people people do. Death is something you cannot stop its apart of life and thats the one thing the bible CLEARLY states we are born and we shall pass. Cancer is man made cancer is caused by people many diseases were caused by people many were made simply off of the biology of life. And PEOPLE HURT PEOPLE god does nothing to cause us pain god cannot control evil he can only make us aware that evil exists. The person who sexually abused you is NOT of god he is evil and trust he will pay his due god punishes not by inflicting pain but by karma. simply what goes around comes around no he may not be sexually assaulted like you were but there are many ways karma can destory a person and their lives and if you leave it up to god he will pay the price for what hes done to you. You may not see it happening in front of you but just know it will happen. When you think god think love god is love im spreading my love to you now god is speaking to you through somebody. The person that hurt you DID NOT get away with the pain he caused you he will pay the price. You dont have to believe in god but believe in life the goodness there is in life and stay strong.

My entire childhood I blamed myself for not protecting her after I had promised my birth mum I would always be there for her. I was adopted by a pastoral family a few years later and one day my youth pastor took me aside and gave me The Shack to read, not promising anything, just hoping I wasn't going to make a bad choice with my life. I couldn't put it down that night. I read through it and poured myself into the pages. The next morning I remember my parents asking me what had happened, what was this change they had seen over night. Now my dad is a traditional pastor; he's got no time for fantasies, just his work with God. I passed him the book and challenged him to read it. He went out a few days later and but over 100 copies to take with him on his missions trips. This is who I had always seen God as, and I saw my family completely change their views on faith because of a great author's insight to Grace. I still read the chapter "Bring on the Judge" as part of my devotions

I've never been a religious guy but this story... it's about so much more. It's about pain, trauma, grief, and loss. It's about falling in the worst parts of despair. Learning how to face. Learning how to forgive those around you and more importantly how to forgive yourself.

It just seems like you have a chip on your shoulder. The most important thing Jesus taught was love. To love one another and love him. So if we all just loved there wouldn’t be any rebuking or people getting behind you.

Remember Jesus said “Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets." Matthew 22:36-40

He sees us .. and He wants to reach out to us .. we just need to let go and let Him . surrender our fear and keep our eyes on him.. i think i want to say "Thank you Lord .." i feel like i was hugged by the Him and they're saying "hey ... its ok .. everything's gonna be alright " ..
