"The Shack" Author Brings Heresy to Evangelical Churches

Larry DeBruyn is the senior pastor of Franklin Road Baptist church, and author of Church on the Rise: Why I'm Not a Purpose Driven Pastor.

God is an overweight African-American woman? Jesus is not The Christ? There is no penal, substitutionary atonement of Christ? These are just a few of the problems with The Shack and its author, William Young, who is now on a speaking tour and is coming July 12 to one of Milwaukee, Wisconsin's largest mega-churches, Elmbrook Church.

For months, The Shack has been dominating the New York Times best seller list. Why? Even though it's an allegory, the book tugs upon the emotions of the reader because of the tragedy that's described when the main character's daughter is kidnapped, raped and killed.

Is The Shack an innocent allegory that sheds light on what God has already written in his Word or is this another attempt at teaching universalism? Join Jim and Pastor DeBruyn as they cross reference this book with Holy Scripture to bring listeners the truth on this important subject.
