Your husband is far from perfect, right? Well, guess what? So are you. Here's pastor, author,

and yes, imperfect husband, Crawford-Laritz. The ability to express forgiveness, the ability to say

I'm sorry, the ability to say I'm wrong, is terribly important. To be married means of necessity you're going to have to

forgive. This is the Revive Our Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss-Walgamut, author of

Choosing Forgiveness for July 25th, 2019.

All this week, Nancy has been joined by Crawford and Karen Leritz to talk about building a marriage that matters for generations to come. You can listen to previous

parts of this conversation at revive our hearts.com. Well, if you've been listening for the past

several days, you've enjoyed, as I have, the conversation we've been having with Crawford

and Karen Leritz talking about marriage and the fact that your marriage is not just for today,

but that it's also sowing seeds for a legacy that you're leaving for a time you cannot see,

for tomorrow, and talking about the importance of being missional in marriage, but also giving us

some really practical helps and handles for how to build

a marriage that honors the Lord, no matter what your background may be, no matter what baggage or

dysfunction you may have brought into your marriage, there is hope. That's been the message

resonating throughout these past several days. So Crawford and Karen have been longtime friends. You served for many years in what was then known as Campus Crusade for Christ, now crew. And you've been speakers on the family life marriage team weekend to remember. You may have heard Crawford and Karen there pastoring in Atlanta, Georgia

area. And our paths have crossed over the years, and I've always been so thankful. And now,

as a kind of newlywed myself, I'm really grateful for this book that you've written and for the

practical resource that it is for me. I read it not once but twice.

And I'm so thankful that we can be offering it to our listeners this week.

Thank you for joining us here on Revive Our Hearts.

Thank you for having.

It's great to be here, Nancy.
