<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Well-respected Bible teacher and Christian psychologist helps readers stop chasing happiness and become grounded in God's sacrificial love, freeing us to love like Jesus in all of our relationships, whether they are challenging, disappointing, or rewarding.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>How to Love When You Don't Feel Like Loving<br/></b><br/>Everywhere we look, we see evidence that love is in short supply. Terrorists and political corruption, school shootings and troubled marriages, impatient online sniping and character assassination--all point to the fact that we do not know how to love one another as Jesus commanded and modeled. We put our own interests and happiness first, despite the fact that the greatest happiness comes through sacrificial love.<br/><br/>In this book, <i> </i>Dr. Larry Crabb shows readers how to understand the deep and perfect love we are shown by our Creator and Redeemer, and how to pour that love into other people. This love is about more than being nice and serving others. It's about relating to others in such a way that they feel heard, seen, and valued. This love sacrifices and suffers and keeps loving, even when doing so is costly. This kind of love, says Crabb, is the kind worth fighting for in all of our relationships, and <i>A Different Kind of Happiness</i> shows how to make it a reality.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><b>True happiness comes from true relationship--and true relationship comes from sacrificial love<br/></b><br/>"Larry Crabb has done it again! In <i>A Different Kind of Happiness</i> I've been diagnosed gently, kindly shown Jesus, and then offered a better way. This is a profound, honest, life-changing book. This old cynical preacher found hope here. You will too."--<b>Steve Brown</b>, radio broadcaster, author, and seminary professor<br/><br/>"You will not be able to put this book down. Dr. Crabb shows the way to true happiness and joy--being like Jesus and getting your joy from Him. You may never be quite the same again after reading it."--<b>R. T. Kendall</b>, former minister of Westminster Chapel, London<br/><br/>"Dr. Crabb has a message that challenges the status quo: ultimately the Bible is about relationship. He reminds us that growing in sacrificial other-centeredness is not easy, but it is the way of Christ, which is a critical message for the body of Christ."--<b>Jason Kanz, PhD, ABPP</b>, board certified in clinical neuropsychology, Marshfield Clinic<br/><br/>"While reading this book I found my heart longing to love like Jesus loves. Larry writes in a way that stirs the deepest part of me, which truly does want what God wants. I wish every Christ-follower would read this book and allow God to create a vision in them for loving well."--<b>Bill Lenz</b>, senior pastor, Christ the Rock Community Church, Appleton, Wisconsin <br/><br/>"We were built for happiness. The path there is mostly misidentified and counterintuitive. In this book, Larry points to the life-giving way."--<b>Dr. Kent Denlinger</b>, pastor, Valley Springs Fellowship<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Dr. Larry Crabb</b> is a well-known Christian psychologist, conference and seminar speaker, Bible teacher, and author of more than twenty-five books--including <i>When God's Ways Make No Sense</i> and two Gold Medallion award-winners, <i> Inside Out</i> and<i> Understanding People</i>.
