Featuring: Author William Paul Young

October 17th, 2026
9:00am - 2:30pm PT

Celebrating William Paul Young’s highly anticipated new book, Return to the Shack (debuting October 6), with a special one-day online retreat.

More than fifteen years after The Shack invited millions into a deeper encounter with God’s love, Return to the Shack continues that journey with fresh wisdom for today. We are honored to welcome Paul Young to Stillpoint just days after the release of his new book.

Together we’ll explore what it means to return—not simply to a beloved story, but to the Love that continually calls us into healing, freedom, and faithful presence.

About the Presenter:

Paul Young, author of The Shack, Cross Roads, Eve, and Lies We Believe About God, was born a Canadian and raised among a stone-age tribe with his missionary parents in the highlands of West Papua. He suffered great loss as a child and young adult and now enjoys the “wastefulness of grace” with his growing family in the Pacific Northwest of the USA.

A few facts never tell real stories. They don’t speak to the potency of love and forgiveness, the arduous road of reconciliation, the surprises of grace and community, of transformational healing and unexpected emergence of joy.
