Great product!
People that know just enough about me to know I read a lot keep recommending these damn things to me. As if those of us that like to read will read any damn thing; cereal boxes, airplane seat-back safety cards (admittedly, I love these), and shitty immature porn.
I also have this terrible habit of listening to people's awful book recommendations when I am drunk. This is exacerbated by my kindle, which is always with me. So drunken super_luminal will IMMEDIATELY PURCHASE horrible books on the recommendation of drunken strangers she meets at bars with wild abandon.
I woke up one morning with a terrible hangover and a copy of The Shack blinking back at me.
So much shame.
The book has sold millions of copies.
First of all,
Props to you velogirl. Announcing that you found God on reddit is an open invitation for ridicule. So gtz on your interwebds gonads.
Secondly, I'm happy that you found something that is working for you, and has allowed you to get to a healthier place in your life. People often criticize the lack of God's presence in the world, but fail to consider that perhaps they're their own problem. I'm sure the whole experience feels like a light switch has turned on; I know it did for me.
Finally, good luck with your SO. I dated a solid Atheist for 3 years and I know that's far from easy. The conflicting views, lack of respect, and waves of condensation can (and will) cause serious wear. Personally, I recommend reinforcing your knowledge of God and the bible, as well as your ever growing relationship with him as much as you can.
No one has all the answers. This debate is as old as time, there will never ever be cold proof to trump either side.
Some recommended "God Stuff":
And on reddit, a user named " seeing_the_light " usually leaves his debaters cold in their tracks. His orthodox education is inspiring. Good luck!
The book I'm going to read is called 'The Shack'. I don't know the whole background on it, but it's fiction, and somehow talks about the religions in church is not 'the religion' that is in the bible yadda yadda yadda.
From Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Shack-William-P-Young/dp/0964729237/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1252527523&sr=1-1
I suggest reading A More Christlike God by Brad Jersak.
For lighter reading, read or watch The Shack
