Knirsch, Vojtěch ; Baštecká, Bohumila (advisor) ; Jandejsek, Petr (referee)
The work The Gift of Faith and the Abrahamic Story (Gn 22:1-19) uses autoethnographic qualitative methodology to fulfill several goals: to understand the gift in the context of faith, to understand the concept of "gift of faith", to connect different concepts of the gift in the Abrahamic story of the sacrifice/binding of Isaac, to be able to explain to an unbeliever that faith is a gift. Practical examples of giving from the contexts of charity, humanitarian and development aid were linked with theological inspirations from the Abrahamic story. The work brings inspiring findings for the theory and practice of diaconics: People are completely embedded in chains and networks of mutual (mutual) giving, donor and recipient are only situationally changing roles, the primary donor is God. A gift is associated with a sacrifice, it binds, it creates a debt. A gift must be responded to, for example, with gratitude, reciprocity or, in the context of participation, with participation, mutuality. The recipient receives the gift as ownership, which in the case of the gifts of the Spirit is more like stewardship. A gift is problematic when it is expressed in circulation (money). Sometimes it is necessary to give a gift "despite!", that the recipient will not accept the gift, for example. And sometimes the giver...
