Men & Women: Enjoying the Difference

What does it take to get along for a lifetime? Men and women share a deadly problem that kills good relating. The problem is this: we are committed, first of all, to ourselves. Each of us, without blushing, holds fast to an overriding concern for our own well-being. Giving numerous examples from his counseling and speaking ministry, Crabb explores how we can turn away from ourselves and toward each other, how we can become what he calls 'other-centered.' Dr. Crabb maintains that men and women are different in important ways that, if understood and honored, can lead to a deep enjoyment of one another, an enjoyment that can last forever.

In an updated edition of his bestseller--now including a discussion guide--Larry Crabb explores the rich but ofter troubled relationships between men and women. Giving numerous examples from his counseling and speaking ministry, Crabb demonstrates how we can turn away from ourselves and toward each other, to become what he calls "other-centered, " rather than self-centered.

This book's premise is that men and women struggle to relate to one another because they are self-centered and do not recognize and honor the God-created differences between men and women.

Dr. Lawrence J. Crabb Jr. (Ph.D., University of Illinois) is a well-known speaker, author of numerous bestselling books including Finding God, and Men and Women, and distinguished scholar-in-residence at Colorado Christian University in Morrison, Colorado.
