Głoszenie słowa Bożego wobec wyzwań współczesności

Abstract

The article deals with the subject of challenges which the preaching of the word of God takes up today. Omitting challenges concerning its content, language, variety and different mentality of the listeners, it focuses on the challenges of the general nature. The first of them is the return to the theology of preaching and, on its basis, the renewal of the faith in the power of the preached word, making it a real pastoral priority. The second one is evangelisation, penetrating the whole preaching, concentrated on bearing witness to Risen Christ, with special attention to the role which direct preaching plays in it. The third challenge is the spirituality of the preacher requiring intellectual, human and religious sensitivity, which is the ultimate reason to deal seriously with all the challanges which preaching the word of God faces today.
