Winging It
Meditations of a Young Adult

Therese Johnson Borchard

Honest, enriching reflections for men and women in their 20s and 30s on career, friendship, spirituality, suffering, personal growth, and much more.

160pp. 5-3/8 x 8-1/4
ISBN 1-57075-357-1
Original Paperback
$12.00


Who am I? What am I here for? Is there life after work? Why do I sometimes still lose it when I call my parents? What about marriage and children? How can I forgive the past? Live in the present? Stay fit, eat what I want, and not care one way or another?

From the eternal questions to the mundane particulars of life Therese Borchard shares her search for meaning, her ups and downs, and learns a few things along the way. Each reflection begins with a quote from popular culture (from Seinfeld to Seuss), continues with a personal story that everyone can relate to, and ends with a biblical passage that invites contemplation.

Presented with warmth and humor by a 30-year-old author, Winging It speaks not only to a new generation of adults but to seekers of all ages.

Therese Johnson Borchard has an M.A. in theology from the University of Notre Dame, and is the author/co-author of 15 books, including I Like Being Catholic (Doubleday). She lives in Annapolis, Maryland, and speaks to groups of young adults nationwide.
