A unique set of spiritual educational cycles
The end of the Second World War in 1945 and the Jubilee Year 2000. Between these two milestones we find many events and personalities that have had a decisive influence on the future history of the Church. Church historian Professor Martin Weis discusses, for example, how the expulsion of Germans was reflected in specific cases of priests, or how the onset of communism appeared from a church-wide perspective. How do church historians evaluate the personality of John XXIII? What important decisions did Pope John Paul II make? Church History in the Mirror of Time III. brings us to the threshold of a new century.
You may already know this unique set of spiritual educational cycles from the broadcasts of Radio Proglas. They were created between 1999 and 2020 and offer a wide range of different topics presented by experts mainly from theology and history. The training cycles can be divided into four basic areas, colour-coded for easier orientation:
Blue Circle: Spirituality and Christian Formation - these themes focus on Christian morality and the living of faith in concrete situations. Programs devoted to catechism and catechesis serve as a basic introduction to Christian practice. The collection is expanded by contributions focusing on the contribution of all seven Catholic sacraments and on moral values.
Orange Circle: Systematic Theology - These topics provide a basic overview of Catholic theology. They bring out the basic truths of the faith and help us to avoid some of the mistakes we may make unknowingly. At the same time, compared to the basic lessons of the catechisms, they expand knowledge in greater depth.
Yellow circle: Church History - these programmes focus on events in the life of the Church from its foundation to the present day. They contextualise individual events in historical context and offer a deeper understanding of the chosen issue.
Green Circle: Other - these are cycles that do not fall directly under the above mentioned thematic sets, but expand the education of the practicing Christian.
