Two authors join us—Catherine Brunell, author of Becoming Catholic Again: Connecting the Faith We Were Taught with the Faith We Live & Fred Casselman, author of Fresh Air: New Visions for the Catholic Church.

Brunell tells her personal story, examining how to maintain an authentic spiritual life and a connection to the Church in a postmodern world. Brunell invites us to find solace in her story—and to realize that faith can be approached as a route to personal discovery that can lead to spiritual growth.

Fred's book Fresh Air expands on tradition, bringing a more up-to-date, enlightened sense of love and the feminine into the Church. His writings are gentle and hold the space for new ways without invalidating the old.

"I have been standing on the side of life, watching it float by. I want to swim in the river. I want to feel the current.”

So writes Mamah Borthwick Cheney in her diary as she struggles to justify her clandestine love affair with Frank Lloyd Wright. Four years earlier, in 1903, Mamah and her husband, Edwin, had commissioned the renowned architect to design a new home for them. During the construction of the house, a powerful attraction developed between Mamah and Frank, and in time the lovers, each married with children, embarked on a course that would shock Chicago society and forever change their lives.
