Leveraging Your Differences
Crawford and Karen Loritts share how they’ve learned to leverage their distinctive differences to make their marriage stronger. Crawford praises Karen’s organizational and money management skills now, but he was slow to appreciate those skills early on. Crawford, on the other hand, excels at casting a vision for their future. Together they remind us that the goal of marriage isn’t to change one another but to press into Jesus and accept the differences.
Looking for a way to keep going?
These six conversations are just a glimpse into the type of conversations prompted by our new marriage study, Art of Marriage, currently 25% off through August 31.
If you’ve been craving more—more connection, more understanding, more joy together—Art of Marriage is a powerful next step. This six-session, video-based study dives into the core of how to love our spouse the way God loves us: how to have an unwavering love no matter the challenge, a love full of strength and resiliency, a love that is selfless, a love that forgives because of the grace He has shown us, a love so intimate that you feel fully known and seen, and a love that is a representation of Christ just in how others see you love each other.
You can walk through it with friends, a small group, host an event at your church, or go through it with just the two of you. Learn more or preview session one at ArtofMarriage.com
