I’ll Take God: Hold the Religion

By: Irene M. Tomkinson

Narrated by: Irene Tomkinson

"I'll Take God - Hold the Religion is compelling, funny, raw, and wise. This Jewish girl loves what this Catholic girl wrote and the way she wrote it. I came home to parts of my own story in a new way. We all have a relationship with this experience called life. Irene challenges us to live our experience by choice, not by default." - Nancy Slonim Aronie, author, Founder - Chilmark Writing Workshop, NPR Contributor.

"For anyone grappling with separating religion and God, or religion and spirituality, I'll Take God - Hold the Religion is a must. This amazing human being sharing her wisdom and experience from her own spiritual journey has helped me discover and learn to live from my still small voice. Yes, I have found my own deep sense of knowing. At 72, I am finally learning to trust myself." - Dr. Stephen C. Smith, Retired dentist and Vietnam Veteran.

Relatable

I enjoyed the vulnerability revealed in Irene’s book. I could relate on many different levels. This is a wonderful read/listen for anyone struggling with the concept of God and also anyone involved in any 12 step program.

Honesty and compassion

Nothing at all. It was very enlightening, and done with truth and love. I loved it.

Dry

I found this book dry and poorly narrated. Fast forwarding through most of it to get done and move on.
