Podążanie Józefa Kalinowskiego ku Bogu – wewnętrzne zmagania i powrót do praktyki sakramentów

Abstract

At the time of his studies, the later saint Józef Kalinowski loosened his relationship with God. As a result, he stopped receiving sacraments. This took place when he was still a young man, pursuing answers to the basic questions regarding the human existential structure. This period was marked by seeking constant values and the meaning of life. However, Józef did not reject God, the Church, or the Christian Tradition. Even during those diffi cult years, God was always his anchor, his sole point of reference. Amidst his internal struggles, his relationship with God was growing and maturing. It goes without saying that the January Uprising and his exile to Siberia also left their mark on his path to God.
