Homilia w dokumentach polskich synodów diecezjalnych (2000-2012)
Szewczyk, Leszek (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2016)
The purpose of this paper is to analyse documents of ten Polish diocesan synods that took place between 2000–2012. The paper analyses a question of importance of diocesan synods for the work of preaching the Word of God. The issues discussed are importance of a synod in life of a local Church, statements of diocesan synods on the role of preaching the Word of God, an attempt to specify a role of a homily as well as content and formal elements of homiletic preaching. From analysis of diocesan documents one concludes that in defining the essence of a homily they draw from the teaching of the universal Church. The documents show that the content of preaching should be Christocentric and touch upon the most vital existential problems of listeners. Majority of the analysed documents encourages preachers of homilies to adjust the needs and capacities of listeners. A significant gap is lack of reference to preaching the Word of God in specific dioceses.
