"As a prominent urban radio host, we talk about relationships a lot on our shows and when it's time to call on an expert, there aren't too many 'experts' I trust who talk the talk, walk the walk, and lead by example--but Pastor Cal is it. Marriage Ain't for Punks is consistent to what we love and trust about Pastor Cal. It's realistic, honest (brutally, when needed), and practical. I honestly wish I had the type of guidance shared in this book a few years back ... but I'm glad I have it now."

--Nina Brown, radio and TV host

"I adore Pastor Cal! His spirit is incredibly warm and the way he helps couples work through their issues is done with nothing but pure love."

--Nicole Haynes, EBONY Media executive

--Ty Law, Pro Football Hall of Fame, class of 2019

"Marriage Ain't for Punks is a must-read for couples who are struggling to make their relationship work. Pastor Cal, in his typical fashion, pulls no punches with his straightforward and direct approach. Fans finally have the opportunity to get his advice and apply his strategies to their own marriages and learn how not to 'punk out.' I can't wait to share this book with the couples I work with!"

--Jessica L. Griffin, PsyD, associate professor of psychiatry and pediatrics, UMASS Medical School, department of psychiatry; relationship expert and TV personality; CEO of Love Builder, Inc.

"Pastor Cal has created a clear and concise guide that can help you navigate the crazy ups and downs of marriage. This isn't a one-time read, this is a manual that should be referenced over and over again as you meet the many different challenges of wedded bliss."

--Kevin Frazier, TV host
