Vol. 30 No. 2 (2022): Religious education in the light of crisis situations and experiences

Religious education in the light of crises situations and experiences

On the one hand, experiences of crisis represent a constant of every human life and every time, on the other hand, they seem to have become more concentrated in recent times. Accordingly, in recent years religious education has been increasingly confronted with the effects of multiple crises on this side and beyond its professional boundaries. From the numerous systemic crises within church and religious institutions to the perception of the world as a wounded place of living together - the revelation of the crisis dimension of the present has moved into authoritative and important discourses of the religious education landscape and is increasingly shaping the religious education consciousness of our time.
