Do our kids need shoes of iron?

Studies show that many young Catholics and other Christians leave the Church by the time they finish college. One of the main reasons they leave is that they are not getting sufficiently satisfying answers to key questions they have regarding the compatibility of faith and science…questions about what the church and science have to say about the existence of God, about an immortal soul and about the life and resurrection of Jesus.

Join us as we explore these important topics and more with Father Robert J. Spitzer, SJ, PhD, President of the Magis Center and the Spitzer Center.

Father Spitzer and the team at the Magis Center have been working hard to provide apologetics, information and resources that help students, parents, churches and educators to get the answers they need.

Father Spitzer is a Jesuit priest, philosopher, educator, author, speaker, former President of Gonzaga University. He is the founder and President of the Magis Center of Reason and Faith and he is also President of the Spitzer Center of Ethical Leadership.

He has made many TV appearances including: Larry King Live debating Stephen Hawking, the Today Show, The History Channel in “God and The Universe,” a multiple part PBS series “Closer to the Truth,” and the Hugh Hewitt Show.

Currently he is appearing weekly on EWTN in “Father Spitzer’s Universe“ where he covers a lot of great topics, including those of science and faith.

He’s written many great books which you may find on the Magis Center website.

Father Spitzer has a Bachelor of Business Administration degree (magna cum laude) from Gonzaga University, a Master's degree in Philosophy from St. Louis University (magna cum laude), a Master of Divinity degree from the Gregorian University in Rome (summa cum laude), a Master of Theology degree in Scripture from the Weston School, now the Boston College School of Theology and Ministry (summa cum laude) and a Doctor of Philosophy degree from the Catholic University of America (summa cum laude).
