Publisher Description

Do you long to be loved unconditionally - to be able to share who you really are without masks or pretense? Is it your desire to be a part of a family of believers who are changing into the likeness of Christ? Do you wonder if such a fellowship actually exists?

Yes, it does, says Larry Crabb. He calls it The Safest Place on Earth. Rather than a place for people to display their goodness and hide their failures in fear of censure, the church should be open, supportive, and compassionate in dealing with our weaknesses, says Dr. Crabb. In such a place, there is no expectation that people have arrived at some level of perfection; it's a place where people journey toward God.

With compelling narrative, Larry Crabb presents an inspiring new vision of this wonderful place where we learn what it means to be like Jesus, what the process of getting there looks like, and how we can act as God's agents in each other's lives to help each other stay on course.

"This such an eye-opening book. I find the depth of thought about the importance of true acceptance of friends, community & self is enlightening. I am only on Chapter 4 and have learned SO many good life skills to use in my future! :)"

    " While there were some points that prompted good reading and discussion (the differing rooms)I am not a big fan of Crabb's writing style or his philosophy of counseling. However, when I read Crabb I do gain insight from someone in the field that gives me a larger perspective. "

    " A great call to individual believers and the church to live at God's intended level of intimacy with one another and living out the reality that God has made us into new creations. Who we are at our core is holy. "

    " I really like the premise of turning our chairs to face one another and that spiritual community cannot be forced or managed, it must come through the Holy Spirit. Some of the mystical stuff got a little fluffy for me, but otherwise it was a good read. Took a little long to read though. "
