    Papieża Franciszka prakseologiczna wiarygodność Kościoła. Zarys problematyki
    Mastej, Jacenty (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2020)
    The aim of this article is to outline issues related to the praxeological credibility of the Church as seen by Pope Francis. After demonstrating the Christic nature of the Church, the author discusses the four praxeological signs of the Church’s credibility. First, her holiness is presented, which Francis describes as the Church’s most beautiful face. Next, Christian joy as a sign of the Church’s credibility is presented. Then the author shows Pope Francis’ desire for the Church to be poor and for the poor. Finally, the ecological face of Ecclesia is uncovered. These considerations lead to the conclusion that praxeological credibility proposed by Francis clearly and convincingly reveals the Christ’s Church to modern man. This Francis’ novelty is manifested, among others, in his teaching style. The way he communicates the truths of the faith and moral life, which are important to him, is simple and direct, abundant in metaphors and vivid and lively images taken from everyday life. Rather than theoretically elaborating on them, the Pope demonstrates their practical application; he gives simple and useful tips that us to commit to a life of faith. Thus, the ecclesiological character of Francis’ message is characterised by ecclesial praxis. Such a praxeological orientation of ecclesiology opens new research perspectives on fundamental theology, which – while showing the Church’s credibility – should focus more on her Christic nature and be inspired by the lives of the faithful. Pope Francis’ praxeological presentation of the Church’s credibility is evident also in that he speaks of the Church with admiration, reverence and love. At the same time, while teaching in truth, he does not avoid difficult and painful subjects because he loves the Church and is aware of her great responsibility for the entire ecclesial community.
