It is a continuation of the handbook entitled Pastoral Theology (Lublin 2000-2002) edited by Rev. Prof. Ryszard Kamiński. Lexicon of Pastoral Theology attempts to keep balance between intellectuality and spirituality. Intellectuality without spirituality results in hypocrisy and religious relativism, and spirituality without intellectuality – in fanaticism and religious fundamentalism. This balance in Lexicon of Pastoral Theology is based on appreciating both intellectual Catholicism and folk religiousness. Lexicon of Pastoral Theology puts a lot of stress on personalization and socialization of pastorate. On the one hand it tackles several issues and problems of psychology of pastorate and subjectivity of people in the Church, and on the other it talks about sociological conditions of pastorate and it emphasizes strongly the Church’s social pastorate promoted by John Paul II. The keynote of Lexicon of Pastoral Theology is harmonizing faith with life. It is done through implementing the commandment about love of God and one’s neighbor.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/Leksykon teologii pastoralnejleksykony teologiczneleksykonyleksykony teologicznopastoralneteologiateologia pastoralnateologia praktycznaeklezjologia pastoralnaduszpasterstwoeklezjologiaLexicon of Pastoral Theologytheological lexiconslexiconstheological-pastoral lexiconstheologypastoral theologypractical theologypastoral ecclesiologyministrypastorateecclesiologyArticle
