W poszukiwaniu duchowości praktycznej. Studium teologiczno-duchowe na kanwie życia biskupa Czesława Domina

Abstract

Every science – especially theological science – has to face the risk of abstraction to the extence that it could mean lack of any connection with what people live with in the real world. It can be a danger for the theology of spirituality when it stops asking about practical and existential dimension of its research. Theology of spirituality derives from both sources – Bible and Tradition, but also takes inspiration from people’s lives who were demonstrating practical dimention of Christian spirituality. Seams that every human being not only needs teaching but testimony that comes from specific people who would give the example of a good and practical belief in angels and saints. Bishop Czeslaw Domin is one of such individuals. The intimacy with angels and saints was one of central elements in his spirituality, the one that he could heve been recognized with, also among clergy. I this article we will focus on Bishop Domin’s relationship with sains and angels which was practical and derived from the Tradition of the Church. His life gives many impulses to the contemporary theology of spirituality.
