Excellent!

The narrator has a smooth, calming voice that’s very easy to listen to, which made the whole book even more enjoyable.

Great advice. After being married 39 years, I agree to all of these ideas and would add in praying together. There is nothing more intimate than praying for your children, concerns, and each other. It is a truly authentic expression to share together and draws your relationship deeper than it has ever been.
