The Communional Dimension of Faith in the Roman Catholic Church in the Czech Republic. Theory and Praxis.
ŠÍDLOVÁ, Jana
This dissertation deals with the communional dimension of faith in the Roman Catholic Church in the Czech Republic. First, the possibilities of using the empirical methods in the field of Practical Theology are analysed and the paradigm of the paper is described. It is on the boundary of the empirical-analytical current and the hermeneutical-mediative current according to the concept of G. Heitink, using the intradisciplinary approach of J. van der Ven. The following part focuses on the term communion and community. The documents of the Second Vatican Council are explored, the relations between the Universal and particular Church are analysed, and three ecclesiologies based on the term communion are examined. This part also concentrates on the smaller Church communities inside her such as a parish and non-parish community. Subsequently, the results of two case studies are presented, the first was carried out in a chosen parish, the second was carried out in the non-parish community of women. Both the case studies are compared and analysed in the practical-theological method. The educational plan is designed in the last part of the paper. It is a general plan for education of the laity in the Church. The plan takes into consideration the normative and the empirical aspects of the adult catechesis.
