The foundation of the entire Spitzer Center curriculum is also foundational to human nature \u2013 namely, our universal desire for happiness. This notion of The Four Levels of Happiness\u00ae<\/em> was articulated by Fr. Robert Spitzer, through his study of the collective insights of more than 130 prominent theologians, philosophers, psychologists, and authors over two millennia. The Four Levels of Happiness\u00ae<\/em> seminar has been enthusiastically received by hundreds of priests and deacons across the country. A combination of education and inspiration, the offering is perfect for a clergy convocation, priest assembly, or education days. Featuring Fr. Spitzer in short video bursts, the professional delivery is interspersed with entertaining movie clips, discussion, and windows for personal reflection.
