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.
