Marcus Warner & Stefanie Hinman · 2024
🎙 Narrated by Linda Kimbrough
66/100
👎 Skip It
This one pairs a pastor-counselor's framework with a trauma-trained art therapist's toolkit, so the exercises feel more grounded than a typical resilience book. It's a ministry-published, niche title with little outside scrutiny, but the dual clinical-pastoral lens gives real practical weight for parents and helpers. Linda Kimbrough narrates a tight four-and-a-half-hour edition, though nobody's weighed in on how she delivers it.
