Few subjects are as compelling-or as endlessly variable-as love and marriage. The Bible is filled with references to husbands and wives, from the story of Adam and Eve to advice in the New Testament, each open to interpretation. In The Meaning of Marriage, Timothy Keller, pastor of New York's Redeemer Presbyterian Church and bestselling author of The Reason for God, uses the scriptures as his guide to show readers what God's call to marriage is, and why this is such a powerful call.

Good marriage book - Doesn't come with survey code
This was a book that really made me think about communication in my marriage. A couple chapters in the book discussed an online communications survey. The audio book did not come with a code to take this survey. While I really recommend the paper book, I would not recommend the Audiobook purchased on Audible for this reason.

Should Purchase the Book for Assessment Passcode
This was a decent book, but if you want to get the full benefit from it, I would purchase the book because the terms and phrases would be easier to remember. Plus, there is a passcode in the book somewhere (probably inside or back cover) that the authors give to the buyer so they can go online to purchase the much-talked-about Love Talk Assessment. I wish I had known this, I would have driven down to the bookstore to purchase the item instead.

Doesn’t include the materials mentioned in the book
So at about the halfway point they direct you to their website to take a survey that seems really critical to understanding where you fit in to the material presented in the book. The problem is that the survey is no longer on the website and even if it were, the required passcode is not included with the audiobook.
