Bestselling author joins Swedesburg?s Lifetree Café

The author of the best-selling book "The Shack", will weigh in on whether God loves imperfect people at Lifetree Café on Wednesday, May, 13, at 7 p.m.

The program, entitled, "Can God Love a Mess Like Me?" features an filmed interview with ?The Shack? author, William Paul Young.

"The Shack" has sold over 18 million copies despite Young?s original plan to never have the book published.

"I wrote to communicate to my kids about the character of God, to make asking questions about God's kindness and goodness okay," Young says.

Admission to the 60-minute event is free. Refreshments are available. Lifetree Café is located in Swedesburg at 201 Academy Avenue.

Lifetree Café is a place where people gather for conversation on life and faith in a casual coffeehouse-type setting. Questions about Lifetree may be directed to Mark Youngquist at 319-631-8564 or pastor@swedesburglutheran.org.
