Selling more than 7 million copies and spending 49 weeks on the NY Times best seller list, The Shack has been a stellar success for William (Paul) Young. The book has generated its fair share of controversy, yet there can be no doubt that Paul’s book has struck a chord with millions of people. The following is the 1st part of 3 ten minute clips that reflect the bulk of my phone conversation with Paul. Paul offers practical insight concerning some very controversial issues of social change, the Gospel and culture. There are even a few answers that may shock you!

“But false prophets also arose among the people, just as there will also be false teachers among you, who will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the Master who bought them, bringing swift destruction upon themselves. Many will follow their sensuality, and because of them the way of the truth will be maligned; and [...]

- Metrospirituality And “Self” As The Object Of Pleasure
In my first post on this topic I outlined the two kinds of Metrospirituals: Organics and Christians. Now I would like to move into a deeper study of the Christian-Metrospiritual (CM). You are all probably familiar with the term “metrosexual.” In 2002 Mark Simpson at Salon.com wrote an article giving his own [...]

Regarding the interview with Paul Young author of “The Shack.” I am sorry it took me so long to get to this, I listened to it twice with too much interuptions, so I came home today and put my headsets on and sheeewwwed everyone out so I could listen ;O)))
First, Joe, you are an EXCELLENT interviewer! I found it informative and enlightening. It was NOT at all what I was expecting! I don’t know why, but I really thought you were going to ask him questions about his book!?! I was interested in hearing about how he came up with the characters…his insight into the development of this personal revelation. If he was planning to write a sequel…you know. ;o)) I thought your theological discussion was great though. ;O)
Glad you dug it Pam.
Sorry I did not get into questions about the book for you. There are a lot of interviews like that on YouTube you can find. I wanted to offer something a little different.
Don’t get me wrong………..I enjoyed the interview. It just wasn’t what I was expecting, and I don’t know why I thought you were doing that kind of interview because you didn’t read the book! lololol ;o))))
