I like Paul Young. Having heard him speak about his life and book three times in Portland, Oregon, in fall of 2008, I found him to be passionate, witty and funny. While at Young's alma mater (Warner Pacific College), I was able to spend a few moments with him privately, during which time I asked him to respond personally to several criticisms and concerns that I and other Christians are raising about the theological content of his book. I wish I could report that he allayed my apprehensions, but instead I went away convinced that The Shack is more than just a little offbeat but is, as Dr. Albert Mohler pegged it during his May 26, 2008, radio broadcast, "blatant heresy."
