Editorial Review:

Product Description:
There are two basic approaches to life–two pathways. One creates pressure, the other provides freedom.

In the Old Way of life, as best-selling author, psychologist, and spiritual director Larry Crabb describes it, “you have decided that what you most want out of life is within your reach, and you are doing whatever you believe it takes to get it.” But in the New Way of life, “you have realized that what you most want is beyond your reach, and you are trusting God for the satisfaction you seek. You want Him. Nothing less, not even His blessings, will do.”

The Old Way–the way most Christians define life and pursue fulfillment–is fundamentally wrong and harmful. It leaves us tired, in bondage, and feeling distant from God. But the New Way brings true freedom and refreshment as we tap into the power to draw closer to God in a personal way.

“We can’t always make life work. But we can always draw near to God. There is a different way to approach our problems. There is a NEW WAY to live.” —Larry Crabb

Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Christian Must Read
Outstanding! This book is a must-read for any Christian seriously trying to follow God in his/her everyday life. Crabb dispells the myths that have been fed to seeking believers for generations by churches that have rationalized and institutionalized the gospel of life. Many writings in Christian literature promise to take the follower of Christ to a higher level of fellowship but fail to deliver on that promise. "The Pressure'a Off" delivers!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not a new way, just God's old way
Too much psychologizing or mystifying of the great and mysterious yet rational and explainable relationship between man and God. Its not a NEW way, its God's old way.

On p. 42, Crabb says we need "one-on-one or small-group conversations where our lives are laid open in the presence of a person gifted to discern the workings of our inner life". Hunh? We need less talking to human beings and more talking to the one High Priest, Jesus Christ Himself. We need no human confessor. I ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great workbook for a great book!
I've read many of Larry Crabb's books, and they are even better when he writes a workbook to go along with it!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Mind and Life changing, worth the read
"The Pressure's Off," by Larry Crabb is the most significant book I've read related to my spiritual life and emotional healing in the past 20 years. I recommend this book for finally getting a correct perspective on God's plan and presence in our personal lives. This one book substitutes for a combination of numerous counseling or discipleship books. In addition, unlike the other books, Crabb's book will lead a person away from a self-analysis focus that goes deeper into the self toward an understanding ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - changed my life
This is without question the most powerful book I have ever read. I think I have read it at least a dozen times, and underlined in at least 5 different color highlighters and 4 or more ink colors. It exposes the self serving motives behind all my attempts at spirituality and unveils the greatest satisfaction that is available to me as a believer, the joy that I have overlooked in all my attempts to make life work. I will never be the same again...all my energy wasted on shallow pursuits that dissolve in the ... Read More
