The author of the best-selling book “The Shack” will weigh in on whether God loves imperfect people at Lifetree Café on Monday, June 17, at 2 p.m.

The program, titled “Can God Love a Mess Like Me?” features a filmed interview with William Paul Young, author of “The Shack” and “Cross Roads”.

“The Shack” has sold over 20 million copies, though Young never intended to publish it. “I wrote it to communicate to my kids about the character of God, to make asking questions about God’s kindness and goodness OK.”

“The Shack” became a major motion picture released in March 2017 and went on to win the Gospel Music Association Dove Award for Inspirational Film of the Year.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Lifetree Café meets at Jalapeno’s Mexican Restaurant, 314 N. Second Ave., Sandpoint.
