The Soul’s Upward Yearning

Fr. Robert Spitzer
Ignatius Press, 2015
375 pages, paperback $19.95

Legatus’ former international chaplain delivers another profound read. The book — subtitled Clues to Our Transcendent Nature from Experience and Reason — contends that scientific materialism over the last 100 years has so undermined our belief in the human capacity for transcendence that many people find it difficult to believe in God and the human soul.

Father Spitzer provides a bright light in the midst of the darkness by presenting evidence for God and a transphysical soul. He shows that we are transcendent beings with souls capable of surviving bodily death and that we have the dignity of being created in the very image of God.
