Biblijne przykłady ludzi wiary i modlitwy w zastosowaniu katechetycznym
Stypułkowska, Beata (Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu Papieskiego Jana Pawła II, 2015)
Religious education should provide pupils with examples of the life of faith. Such examples can be found, first of all, in the Bible. Both in the Old and in the New Testament, we can read about people who met God and this fact influenced all their life. The biblical canon provide us with distinct catalogues of people to whom the God’s Wisdom revealed itself and who are the examples of the life of faith. Two lists can be found in the Old Testament: one in the Book of Wisdom, verses 10, 11 – 11, 3, second in the Wisdom of Sirach, in the so-called “Praise of the Ancestors”, verses 44, 1 – 50, 21. The third series occurs in the New Testament, written by the author of the Letter to the Hebrews in Chapter 11. The present paper begins with the introduction of the catalogues of persons given by biblical authors as the examples of faith and prayer. Then follows the analysis of both the Core Curriculum of Catechesis of the Catholic Church in Poland and the Program of Roman Catholic religious education for kindergartens and schools with respect to this matter. The paper is concluded with suggestions for both the religious classes in public schools and the parish catechesis.
