Biblical Roots of Joy
Nierostková, Edita ; Heryán, Ladislav (advisor) ; Jandejsek, Petr (referee)
The topic of this thesis is: "The Biblical Roots of Joy." On the basis of selected texts of the Old and New Testaments I explored, what is the basis for the biblical concept of joy. Attention is focused on the biblical texts that speak directly about joy of the individual, the joys of the nation of Israel, or of the whole Church, and on the basis of these texts I uncovered the roots of biblical joy. Topic of joy, and it's roots, is described not only from a historical perspective based on historical events recorded in the Bible, but I also deal with the present, and the future. Based on the selected apostolic letters, in this thesis, I briefly described what place should joy have in the Christian life, and the eschatological joy, on which is pointed primarily in prophetic texts. I also briefly described, how can be biblical joy applied in pastoral ministry Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

František Lízna, his life and work as an inspiration for social work and theology
Baďurová, Alena ; Jandejsek, Petr (advisor) ; Křišťan, Alois (referee)
This thesis focuses on the person and work of the Jesuit priest František Lízna SJ. Father František is known for his work with socially excluded people, homeless, prisoners and others who are on the periphery of society. The aim of this thesis is to find inspiration in Father František's activities, which will enable us further reflection and enrichment of social work. By inspiration is not meant something that implies new theory or brings new rules, but it is meant suggestion to reflect our motivations and ways of providing social work. Father František's believed that socially oriented activities are his vocation and calling in life. This thesis will first approach his life story that was marked by political persecution. It was this political persecution that paradoxically brought him closer to socially excluded people. Next two sections of this thesis will deal with his work with vulnerable people. Qualitative research makes it possible to discover Father František's activities, his attitudes and basic values. Interpretation of the collected material offers inspirational ideas for social work with clients of social services, as Father František, himself persecuted and imprisoned, had an experience as an "excluded person". Out of this reason he became a friend of the marginalized people and embraced them...

The Notion of Social Sin in the Texts of Liberation Theology and the Documents of the Magisterium
Gabrielová, Anna ; Jandejsek, Petr (advisor) ; Noble, Timothy (referee)
In the second half of the 20th century, Latin American liberation theology has enriched the theological debate with the notion of social (alternatively structural) sin, which means a non-individual form of evil, often connected with institutions or social structures. The aim of this bachelor thesis The notion of social sin in the texts of liberation theology and the documents of the magisterium is to describe and elucidate the concept of social sin and to compare it with the similar thoughts developed in the documents of the magisterium. However, the thesis also points to the more general considerations about the nature of sin and evil, seeks the relation between the images of social and original sin and sketches the consequence of the concept of structural sin for social work.

Bachelor thesis "The Beatitudes of Jesus and the personality of the socio-pastoral worker" focuses on Jesus' Beatitudes and their practical impact on the personality and conduct of socio-pastoral worker. The core of the work consists of biblical exegesis of Jesus' beatitudes (Mt 5,1-12) according to various commentaries on the Gospel of Matthew. Their biblical interpretation is summarized in the section entitled Executive Summary. Practical applications are then derived from the biblical exegesis. Each of the Beatitudes showed some stimulating challenges and inspirations for socio-pastoral workers, the list of which is not definite, because God's word forms and inspires each person in its individual way. The most important practical impact of Jesus 'message for the personality and actions of helping worker remains its internal transformation in the spirit of Jesus' message, growth to the fullness of being and to the image of Jesus Christ.

Environment and Poverty
Wichterle, Oto ; Jandejsek, Petr (advisor) ; Dočkal, Jan (referee)
This thesis focuses on the interaction of poverty and/or social exclusion and the environment. Its aim is to describe different types of this interaction and to show possible interventions of social policy and social work. This thesis provides practical cases of environmental damage which are results of poverty or social exclusion in Europe, for example European regions in decline due to land degradation. This thesis does not bring solutions for these case reports. It focuses on the possible socio-political interventions in different kinds of interactions among poverty and/or social exclusion and the environment, which are based on Czech form of social policy. The interventions presented are, therefore, limited to the European context. Nevertheless, the presented interventions may be useful in certain cases, even in the European context. The chosen overview of interventions is based on the form of social policy which includes education, housing, health policy and policy of social security and employment. This thesis also contains the description of appropriate methods of social work in the interaction of poverty and/or social exclusion and the environment. These are community and social work and anti- oppressive approaches to social work. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
