Strengthening the Resilience of Pupils through Catholic Religious Education in Poland: From Theory to Practice
Many young people find themselves unable to cope with the challenges of today's world and, as a result, lose their self-confidence and joy in life, suffer from depression, and even attempt suicide.

Between Faith and Art: Representations of Heaven in the Italian Iconography of the Final Judgement

The subject of analysis in this article is the iconography of heaven in the Italian representations of the Final Judgement at the turn of the Gothic and the Rena…
Religious education and the concept of universal fraternity in the light of the encyclical Fratelli tutti of Pope Francis
In the face of growing tensions between nations, communities, and individuals, it is necessary to build understanding and dialog between them. Political, economic, and cultural activities are not always sufficient and effective, due to the fact that attitudes toward other people depend less on systemic solutions, laws, and procedures than on what is inside human beings, their empathy and solidarity. Pope Francis has therefore proposed a platform …
