Wisdom from Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J.
Jesus teaches us his way to love in the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The Samaritan’s openness to the goodness and lovability of the man who had been beaten by the robbers—beyond all appearances—empowers his compassion. The Samaritan saw right through the bloody, half-dead figure lying on the side of the road—to a good and precious individual who had been unjustifiably mistreated, not just robbed of his belongings but of his intrinsic dignity and humanity.
—Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J.
from his book, God So Loved the World: Clues to Our Transcendent Destiny from the Revelation of Jesus

In this volume, the brilliant Fr. Spitzer probes in detail the major question: whether an intelligent Creator God—who is the source of our desire for the sacred and for truth, love, goodness, and beauty—would want to reveal himself to us personally and ultimately. After examining the rational evidence for this, he reviews all world religions to see if there is one that reveals such a God—an unconditionally loving God who would want to be with us in perfect empathy.
