Magisterium pastoralne w posłudze papieża Franciszka
Hajduk, Ryszard (Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu Papieskiego Jana Pawła II, 2022)
The teaching of Pope Francis raises some controversy, and even causes accusations of infidelity to Catholic Tradition and turning away from the teaching of his predecessors on the throne of Peter. Such reactions may be due to a misunderstanding of the nature of the papal Magisterium, which has a clear pastoral profile. This article aims to help understand the Pope’s intentions and the content of his teaching, showing the Church’s turn towards pastoral issues, made at the Second Vatican Council inspired by John XXIII, as well as Francis’ approach to the Church’s transmission of the Christian truth. For this purpose, the documents of the Church will be used, the analysis of which, supported by the reflection of theologians, allows the justification of the thesis that the Magisterium teaching of Pope Francis is a continuation of the conciliar thought both in terms of its form and the content of its message. This approach to the transmission of the Christian truth enriches the inner life of the Church and dynamizes its activity in the world.
