Muszyński, Henryk Józef2025-06-162025-06-162018Studia Bydgoskie, 2018, Tom 12, s. 7-18.1898-9837https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/32584The article offers reflections on the place and role of Christianity in contemporary secularized Europe. While it is commonplace to say that we live in a post-Christian Europe, it turns out that the Gospel is still alive and continues to be the biblical yeast and the salt of the earth. The author points to those values that are rooted in Christianity and form a prerequisite for any European renewal. Those include human dignity, love, freedom, solidarity, family and hope, the last of which is in high demand in Europe. The presence of Christian values in modern Europe depends on the dynamism of faith that is being reborn through renewal movements such as the Chemin Neuf, L’Arche, the Alliance of Families and the Neocatechumenate, all of which are open to the Holy Spirit. Faced with secularized culture, which hinders or even prevents the ethnic and cultural transmission of faith, it is those movements that provide a new space for an encounter with the resurrected Christ, thus bringing hope to contemporary Europe.plCC-BY-SA - Uznanie autorstwa - Na tych samych warunkachwartości chrześcijańskiewartościchrześcijaństwoEuropaEuropa współczesnasekularyzacjagodność ludzkagodnośćmiłośćwolnośćsolidarnośćrodzinanadziejaodnowa Europyodnowa człowiekaodnowa chrześcijaninaodnowa Kościołakryzys chrześcijaństwainspiracje chrześcijańskieChristian valuesvaluesChristianityEuropecontemporary Europesecularizationhuman dignitydignitylovefreedomsolidarityfamilyhoperenewal of the Europehuman renewalChristian renewalChurch renewalChristian crisisChristian inspirationArticle
