The Promise, Chapter 4, read by Your Truly


Here's another chapter of my memoir The Promise, or the Pros and Cons of Talking with God. It is my tale of first faith and first love and how the two became almost fatally intertwined. The Kindle edition of the book is currently on sale on Amazon for .99 cents. That's a savings of seven dollars!

I say this book is my tale of first faith and first love and how the two became almost fatally intertwined. This chapter, Saved!, starts the first faith portion. It is, perhaps, the longest chapter in the book so I did condense it a bit during my read. (All the more reason for you to pick up the Kindle edition to read the unabridged version.) So far, I have been using real photos to show the people and places depicted in the book. I could not do that with this chapter since the subject is more more esoteric. Instead, I mainly uses renaissance period religious paintings and the illustrations from Catholic prayer cards I found at my grandmother Rita's house after her death. Most of the cards were at least a century old. Some of them even had Bohemian text. Interestingly, a number of them were used as small post cards with personal messages handwritten on the back.

I hope you enjoy this chapter.
