The Catechetical Review - Communicating Christ for a New Evangelization

La pedagogía de Dios, 1a Parte

Authored by Dr. Petroc Willey in Issue #30.2 of The Sower
En el núcleo mismo del documento más reciente sobre la catequesis de la Iglesia Universal, el Directorio General para la catequesis (DGC), publicado en 1997, está el concepto de ‘la pedagogía de Dios’. ¿Qué significa esta frase, y porqué tiene tanta importancia?[i] Veremos que da la clave para comprender la naturaleza y el carácter específicos de la catequesis de acuerdo a lamente y al corazón de la Iglesia, y especialmente para conectar el contenido de lo que se enseña al cómo se enseña, y para unir el trabajo del catequista a la obra de la Santísima Trinidad en la catequesis. La ‘pedagogía de Dios’ no es tanto una teoría de la educación o siquiera un conjunto de principios para guiarnos. Más bien, esta sección central del Directorio nos recuerda enfocar la acción y la obra de Dios quien es el Pedagogo, formando y transformando a quienes enseñamos, atrayéndolos hacia Sí por medio de une especie única de disciplina educativa. Este artículo expone la enseñanza del DGC (137-147) sobre esta área para resaltar los rasgos principales de la pedagogía de Dios. Dios es el Pedagogo, y catequizamos atentos a sus designios.

The problem here, though, is that Jesus isn’t only a wise teacher. To be his disciple requires something more. At the Great Commission, when he charged... Read more
Marian Devotion and the Renewal of Church Life
By John C. Cavadini
Free What happened to Mary? This is a question that could easily occur to anyone reading through 20th-century theology. Marian theology up to the 1960s was vibrant and flourishing. Fr. Edward O’Connor’s 1958 magisterial volume The Immaculate Conception (recently re-released by University of Notre Dame Press) seems to sum up an era. The lively essays... Read more
The Witness of Mary: A Portrait of Doctrine
By Sean Innerst
In Evangelii Nuntiandi (EN), Pope Paul VI, of sainted memory, said something that has become almost a banner that we fly above our apostolic work today, both in our evangelization and our catechesis. “Modern man listens more willingly to witnesses than to teachers, and if he does listen to teachers, it is because they are witnesses.” [1] This is...
