Publisher Description: This concise, direct book is aimed at young adultscradle Catholics who have left the Church. Patricia Wittberg, a Sister of Charity, makes no attempt to persuade readers to swallow seemingly irrelevant teachings or to engage in rituals they may find boring or unintelligible. "Young adults in the twenty-first century have their own needs, desires, and questions," she writes. "Catholic spirituality is wide and varied; there is something in it for everyone." This book invites young adults to sample some of the spiritual treasures and wisdom of Catholicism as they search for their own answers. "Yes, it is no longer your grandparents' (or even your parents') Catholic Church," Wittberg writes, "but it can be yours, to make of it what you will." |
