Katecheza a doświadczenie człowieka

Abstract

The article begins with the notion of experience which it analyzes from the catechetical point of view, proceeding subsequently to the catechesis of experience. Experiance is treated as a direct relation to the reality as such. Close interrelationship of general experience and religious experience is stressed. The latter is understood as so-called comprehensive rather than distinct experience, being the deep existential experience of man. Thus, the attitude to God results from the attitude to the actuality. When relating catechesis to experience not only its employment in catechesis is suggested (i.s. bringing catechesis closer to experience), but also creation of catechesis resulting from and immersed in experience.
