When a book is promoted by certain Christians as being akin to "The Pilgrim's Progress", then one needs to listen and rebuke, not because Pilgrim's Progress is such a great book apparently, but because it is being promoted as an allegory to the Christian life, or the Godhead or something...
In Pilgrim's Progress, God is clearly represented, the cross is there and the gospel itself is not changed.
From what I hear about the "Shack", God is a woman...
That's enough.
Even Narnia books don't go that far...
