Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book responds to the contemporary crisis in Religious Education by modelling the practice of theological recontextualization for teachers.
MoreLong description:
Faced with the widespread and radical forgetting of Christian tradition, this work models a renewed theological practice for teachers in line with Pope Francis' repeated calls for a dialogical theology: recontextualization.
Recontextualization is not about reading into the text what we want to hear. Instead, it is about engaging in a repeated process of meaning-making in order to listen to the way God continues to reveal Godself through the text in new contexts and in new times. Engaging with seven challenging biblical accounts, the book shows how these texts can open onto significant issues in contemporary culture and the Church.
