We need a strong voice anchored in truth to call us back to what really matters when a man and a woman say, "I do." I do not know a couple more qualified and capable of pointing us in the right direction than Crawford and Karen Loritts. Their faithful lives in ministry and marriage have already been a well-written book, drafted with intentionality and attention to God-honoring detail. Now, decades into the journey, the lessons they've garnered and the generational impact they've created for their own family is at our fingertips within the pages of this book. This is the compass we've been looking for. Theirs is the voice that we need and it's the one I'm listening to. You should too.

Crawford and Karen are at once relatable and convicting, funny, and wise. Through this timely book, they show us how husbands and wives do more than build a family; they leave a gospel legacy. Marriage and parenting done God's way can be the greatest contribution we can make to the Great Commission. We will send our children to places we can never go—most notably, the future. If you want your marriage to be infused with the power that Jesus promises will accompany the Great Commission, don't just read, but spend time with this helpful book.

As a still fairly newlywed myself (married at age fifty-seven!), I was delighted to learn that Crawford and Karen had written this book, and was eager to read it and learn from their wisdom. I've known this couple for many years and they are two of my favorite people. The very different backgrounds they brought to their marriage could have been a recipe for a less than ideal future. But by God's grace, their marriage has gone the distance and is a beautiful reflection of the gospel story. They have been intentional about passing on to their children and grandchildren a rare, precious legacy of devotion to Christ. This book is warm, personal, insightful, thought-provoking, practical, and above all robustly biblical. I heartily commend it to every believer who cares about experiencing and sharing with others a vision for marriage as God intended it to be.

Any time I have a conversation with Crawford Loritts, I come away with much needed perspective. He's one of those guys who opens his mouth and just lets wisdom flow from it, effortlessly and graciously. Your Marriage Today . . . and Tomorrow comes from the heart, gleaned from a marriage of nearly fifty years. The first thing I thought was this should be required reading for all newlyweds. And then I realized that as a man who has been married for thirty-five years, I was learning things that will serve me and my wife well for years and years to come. Well done, Crawford . . . again.

Your Marriage Today . . . and Tomorrow is one of those rare books I'll read after seeing the "movie." My life has been profoundly shaped by my folks, and I couldn't be more thrilled you get the chance to catch the overflow of what me and my siblings received.

Marriage can either be a source of great peace and joy or, unfortunately for some, conflict and sorrow. So learning to manage marriage toward positive outcomes is vitally important. Thankfully, my friends Crawford and Karen Loritts have charted a course to follow based on biblical wisdom and practical experience. Whether your marriage is thriving or struggling, you will find their insights to be of great benefit. Highly recommended!
