Explore the intersection of faith and science with Science at the Doorstep to God and Christ, Science, and Reason by Father Robert Spitzer, S.J.

Whether you are religiously minded or a skeptic, you will explore the fascinating relationship between science and the transcendent and gain keys to attaining the heights of joy.

In Science, Reason, and Faith, Fr. Robert Spitzer, SJ, draws the modern reader's attention to the many seeming conflicts between science, reason, and Catholic teaching. By tackling these difficult questions, he shows that it is precisely through the integration of science, reason, and faith that we can truly discover ourselves, our world, and our God.

This is the most comprehensive scientific treatment of God and the afterlife to date. It combines natural scientific method, metaphysical method, medical studies, anthropological and genetics studies, and phenomenologicaldescriptions, showing how each distinct method and data set reinforces the others.

Jesus said, "The truth will set you free." Father Spitzer lays bare the theological and philosophical roots of Catholic morality, and also uses secular statistical studies to demonstrate that these teachings, even from a scientific standpoint, help human beings to flourish.

In this second volume of the Called Out of Darkness trilogy, Father Robert Spitzer, S.J., draws together some of the best advice given by Catholic spiritual masters across the ages and brings it into harmony with modern scientific research, offering practical ways to live out the gospel in our busy days. It is a roadmap to a deeper relationship with the Lord and to authentic transformation through the imitation of Christ.

Father Spitzer provides the biblical and theological background of Jesus’ victory over Satan. The author also explores the reality of the Devil, including extraordinary manifestations of diabolic activity such as possession. He recalls the true story of the famous possession case on which the novel and film The Exorcist were based.

In the Called Out of Darkness trilogy, Fr. Spitzer confronts the reality of spiritual evil. Escape from Evil’s Darkness dives into Jesus’ victory over Satan and explores possession. Christ versus Satan merges Catholic wisdom with scientific research and offers practical ways to live the gospel, while Moral Wisdom of the Catholic Church uses secular studies to show that Catholic morality leads to human flourishing.

 One of the hottest topics in contemporary culture is happiness. The explanation for this current fixation seems to lie in the contrary phenomenon – unhappiness. Despite the fact that we have tremendous access to every imaginable form of entertainment, we experience a pervading sense of insecurity, emptiness, and malaise amid sporadic peak experiences.

This book shines a bright light into the darkness by presenting traditional and contemporary evidence for God and a transphysical soul. It shows that we are transcendent beings with souls capable of surviving bodily death; that we are self- reflective beings able to strive for perfect truth, love, goodness and beauty; that we have the dignity of being created in the very image of God.

Even if we accept that God is real, why believe that he has personally revealed himself to mankind? In God So Loved the World, Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J., probes this major question. Father Spitzer shows how it is reasonable to believe that the Creator has revealed himself because he is completely intelligent and completely positive. As such, he is in possession of a completely positive virtue—namely, love.

The Purpose of this Book—Seeing Light in the Darkness. “Suffering can be a remarkably positive inspiration and power—when we view it within the context of love and eternal life. I did not appreciate this in my earlier years, but have come to realize that it is the highpoint of wisdom – if we have faith in a loving God.”

Robert J. Spitzer’s award winning book New Proofs for the Existence of God examines the considerable evidence for God and creation that has come to light from physics and philosophy during the last forty years.
