“In a culture where millennials are leaving the Church at staggering rates because they are convinced that organized religion is irrelevant and irreconcilable with modern science, Father Robert Spitzer has developed free online science based apologetics and usable resources to answer this generations doubts about the reality of God.

“Our 6, 7 & 8-grade students constantly raise intriguing questions during our Religious Education classes. These age groups continuously challenge our catechist/volunteer teachers because they want to think about their faith in a deeper way. We found the 7 Essential Modules to be our way to respond to the need of our students and equip our volunteer teachers to lead our students in a more meaningful conversation.
As said, the parents truly appreciated it and for most, it brought a refreshing new approach to table dinner discussion with the entire family. Some parents mentioned that it provided an avenue to be closer and to have a more open relationship with their growing teens.
The sessions became interesting as we moved from one module to the next. Having Father Spitzer join the Q & A portion towards the end was a PLUS factor. His response to the questions raised which leads from one discussion to the next was a BONUS. We will continue to include the 7 Essen-tial Credible Catholic Modules to our middle school Religious Education program.”

“Truly an awe inspiring experience, helping me to sharpen my spiritual axe, reaffirming what I al-ready understood, correcting what I misunderstood and awakening me to what has been lost. The Credible Catholic Series is lucid, well organized and meticulously laid out, all of which are important elements needed if your goal is returning proper apologetics to the educational system.

The research on religious disaffiliation among our youth shows a staggeringly concerning trend. A primary reason for the “break up’ is the perceived rift between faith and science in so many of our students. Catholic schools provide a safe and nurturing environment for students to ask critical questions. The Credible Catholic Modules meet our kids where they live and assist in answering many of those same questions.
The content is well-researched, comprehensive in breadth and depth, and yet it is presented in a way that makes understanding accessible to our youth. Our high school religion teachers report that their students love the Modules because this is the kind of stuff they want to know! The content delivery is visually engaging and the facilitator materials are excellent. The Credible Catholic Program is a great toolbox for any catechist or Catholic school religion/theology teacher.

“Ever since I first encountered Fr. Spitzer’s work, I was awestruck by the depth, rigor, logical ra-tionale tied to theory, and the coherence in which he presented the principal tenets of the Catholic faith. For the first time in my life, somebody articulated for me the vastness, depth, and intelligibility of the faith, and presented a perspective that was not only non-dismissive of the hard questions but also profoundly reverential to the curious nature of the human mind.

Credible Catholic is Incredible
It excites the mind
It soothes the soul
It makes the Catholic Church
A place kids want to go
It convinces the doubters
And makes them believers
It brings back the drifters
Even the faithful
Will rejoice with delight
With this rock-solid evidence
“Where has this been all my life!”
So thank you Father Spitzer
For Credible Catholic
And for the Magis Center
You’ve again worked your magic!

Credible Catholic has renewed in me my love of studying and learning about my faith. The history, tradition, Scripture mystery, and wonder that I have been able to explore again with new eyes and a new heart have come at a very important point in my life. The content of Credible Catholic validates many thoughts and feelings that I have about daily life.

I have used a few bits and pieces of “Evidence of God from Science” from Module 2 in my freshman Divine Revelation course. Students have always reacted favorably, and it has helped break down the myth that Science and Religion are at odds. I have never used a full Module, however, I am familiar with them and have always wanted to utilize them in my courses. Because of the volume of infor-mation in the modules, I was never able to figure out how to use them and cover the Theology cur-riculum mandated in the USCCB Framework.
The Credible Catholic LMS is amazing. It has taken what was an overwhelming amount of infor-mation that was complicated and now presents clear, manageable, and simple, but important and powerful material that anyone can follow. The LMS is very easy to navigate and the lessons are ef-fortless. This is a game-changer as far as using Credible Catholic as an enrichment extension for our high school curriculum.
Seriously, I am extremely excited about the LMS!

“This class helped me grow my faith as a Catholic Woman by reconciling any doubts I may have had about the faith. This class reaffirmed my strength in the faith with concepts many struggle with, such as the debate between science and faith. This course will help me spread the word of God by allowing me to deepen my relationship with Him and to become more educated on parts of the faith I was unaware or unsure about previously.”

“Throughout this course of faith and reason, there have been many informative, valuable lessons incorporated into the unique understanding of Catholicism.
This class has not only provided us with a different perspective of our faith, but a stronger connection to God within this course, as well. While diving into the building blocks of faith and reason, I have developed a deeper meaning as to how my faith influences my decisions and critical thinking, and what that means for my future ahead.
After participating in such a helpful, fundamental course, I believe that every Catholic high school should incorporate the learning of faith and reason by Fr. Spitzer. As many young adults are prone to stray away from their faith, it is imperative that we develop a deeper connection with God through our education. I have confidence in the idea that if all students were exposed to this type of material, many would create an everlasting bond with their faith, rather than struggle with understanding the meaning behind it. In my personal point of view, I feel that within the four years of students’ high school careers, senior year is the best fit for exposure to this course. While seniors are also more likely to be developed in their maturity, it is also essential for them to keep a strong tie to their faith in God, mainly because of the fact that they are starting a new path to adulthood. With the upcoming college experience, I have personally felt that I have taken this course at the best possible level of my academic career. Becoming more involved in my faith this year has encouraged my chances of succeeding in all fields within the near future, due to the fact that I have developed an even stronger support system through God. Without taking the course of faith and reason as a senior, I would not feel as confident in myself and the years ahead. ”

“Through my journey of taking this Faith and Reason course, I have gained much knowledge which has opened my eyes to a new way of practicing my faith. I have taken religion courses for the past 11 years of my life, but never one to the magnitude of this faith and reason course. This course, which is very different from others, gives reasoning and examples which proves God’s love for us, and how he exists in our everyday lives. We also talked about some of God’s healings and the impact it made on certain individuals’ lives.”

“If I could speak to Fr. Spitzer about the course he has developed, I would first compliment him on the course then say thank you. This course had a major impact on my faith, as it made me learn about how the afterlife works, why we suffer, how to be happier in this life and the next, and this course even showed how science backs up the Catholic faith and how they work together, rather than being apart, which is the common misunderstanding.
I would also want him to know that this program has had a major impact on me as a person. It made me stop comparing myself to others to see how much better of a good and better person I can be, rather now I think how I can make that person’s life change for the better, even if it is a small thing I do.”

“After four years of religion classes, Faith & Reason probably had the biggest impact on my faith. Although I do come from a religious family, this course has deepened my understanding of why I believe in the things that I do and has given me the tools to stand up for what I believe in.
Even though I was raised from a young age to believe in God and miracles, after taking this class, I came to realize that I never understood why I believed, I just always accepted it to be true and followed blindly. Chapter 5 of the course, “Why Be Catholic? Proof from Contemporary Miracles,” really opened up my eyes as to the reasons why Catholics believe what we do. I have come to understand why the Church was created and how the Church is meant to guide and teach us. In addition, I have come to realize that science and religion are not at war with each other, but rather allies. Growing up, I was always a science kid and am pursuing a career in science, but, as I got older, what I was learning started to seemingly question my religious beliefs. This confusion was soon settled within the first few chapters of the course, especially chapters 1 and 2. The explanations for the creation of the universe and the NDE experiences both proved how science can actually enforce religion, not tear it apart. ”

“This course of Faith & Reason was the most beneficial religion class I have ever taken in high school.

I learned valuable scientifically-proven theories and facts that prove God’s existence that I hadn’t known in all my years of private (Catholic) schooling.”

“This course has helped my faith grow, and this growth happened progressively. It all started over the Summer, when we were assigned reading about a near-death experience. Reading about this near-death experience as well as learning about them in class helped my faith grow tremendously. I thought it was very intriguing how people could maintain consciousness after bodily death.
What I found especially convincing was that these people were meeting relatives in their experiences whom they would not have known otherwise. Learning this information is what first caused me to really think about my faith and choose to believe.
I was further convinced of my faith when we learned about the Shroud of Turin, the Facecloth of Oviedo, and the Eucharistic Miracle of Buenos Aires. I had heard of these things before but had never gone as in depth about them as we had during this course. What I found most intriguing about this conversation was that the blood on the Shroud of Turin, the blood on the the Facecloth of Oviedo, and the blood in the Eucharistic miracle all had to be from the same person. I also found it very interesting that the Facecloth of Oviedo and the Shroud of Turin showed some of the same wounds, all of which were consistent with Jesus’ crucifixion.
The final thing, which I actually think is what helped my faith grow the most, was learning about suffering, and the reasons and purpose of suffering. This is something I had really struggled to understand before upon pondering my faith. Now, I completely understand the idea of God permitting what he hates to accomplish what he loves. I understand that God allows suffering in order to help us grow in faith, and that it is not a mere result of our own sins. I think this is something that is misunderstood not only by me, but also by much of the Church. I am glad to have had the truth explained to me, so that I don’t feel so abandoned by God whenever I go through something difficult. I can now see suffering in a completely different light.
I always believed, but because of this course I can say that I am Catholic with much more confidence. It gives me comfort knowing there is so much evidence for what I believe, and that I can stand up against anyone who tells me my faith is untrue. There have been times in my life when I have struggled with and questioned my own faith, but now I can say with confidence that I know these times will come less often. I now truly believe, for so many reasons. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to take this course throughout my time in High School, so that I can bring my knowledge with me to the challenging political environment of my future college campus. I have confidence that I will be able to defend my faith, and that I will be able to do so with much evidence supporting me.”

“The main thing in this course that helped me grow in faith was the scientific perspective. In most religion classes, we do not learn about scientific proof that is evidence for God’s existence. It has been a misconception that science cannot prove that God exists. However, I learned that this is quite the opposite. There are several examples proving God’s existence, and that part of the course interested me the most.”

This class broke the boundaries that surround the other religion classes and goes beyond simple history and fact patterns to get lessons across.
As I learned more about the history and principles of the Catholic faith throughout my religious education courses and my time at Sea, there were still questions about God and the Church that I could never seem to find the answers to. This course gave me many of the answers I had been looking for, and even some that I did not think I needed. My faith has grown immensely since taking this class.”

“This course is unlike any other course I have taken throughout my academic career. It covered topics that are meant to be forgotten after the test but are meant to be remembered for the rest of my life.
As I think about my faith in the future, I will think back to the second semester of my senior year of high school and reflect on the various topics covered. This course helped my faith because it provided me with justification of my beliefs from reputable sources instead of having a volunteer parent at CCD class tell me things are true just because they are.”

This course took these topics and broke them down and created a new way of looking at your faith. Learning about the proof of God’s existence, Jesus’ Resurrection, and the different miracles that took place has definitely kept me engaged in the class. The main thing that I took from this class is to focus more on my faith and strive for true happiness.”

By taking the course and fully understanding its material I was able to find my own faith and nurture it every day of my life. I seek the good in others, not their faults and I seek God in others. Beyond just the topics discussed, I found what it is to be Catholic and why it is I pray to God.

Most of the topics in this class I think everyone should know of and looking back I’m surprised I knew not much about it before taking the class. The arguments of NDE’s and fine tuning stuck out to me and proved the existence of a creator. But the Shroud of Turin was the most remarkable thing to me and will be something I will bring up for the rest of my life to those who doubt the resurrection.”

Faith and Reason has certainly helped fill whatever void was present in my faith. “

“Walking into my 5th period class, I was unaware of what to expect. Would reasoning my faith actually contradict it? Would I like the course? What could I possibly learn? All the questions that rushed through my head as I sat in my seat the very first day of class. Little did I know how much I was going to learn in such a short span of time. This course was not only highly educational, but it simultaneously became one of my favorite courses that I took throughout my time at St. Joseph By The Sea High School.
This course has been very difficult for me. Struggling with religion since my freshman year, I was not looking forward to this class. However, I am pleased to say that it was one of the best courses that I could have ever taken, spiritually. I have learned and grown immensely since this course. My faith is so strong because I no longer feel as if I am roaming aimlessly. With my new found beliefs, I have this course to thank. Leaving St. Joseph By The Sea, you tend to forget why you came here in the first place. I am so happy to be reminded of the reason I enrolled here. Not only do you graduate with a great reputation, but you also graduate with a strengthened faith.”
