LOVE AND RESPONSIBILITY

BASICS

• - The course consists of 14 meetings.
• We will meet once a week in a small group.
• Participants will each meeting pripravovať načítaním kapitoly z knihy Karola Wojtylu Láska a zodpovednosť. K tomu dostanú pracovné listy, ktoré im počas štúdia pomôžu zamerať sa na tie najdôležitejšie otázky.
• Each session will have a theme and special questions for discussion. Together we will seek answers to the fundamental questions of the human heart as captured by Karol Wojtyla.
• In the case of several participants from the Košice area, several meetings will be held in a face-to-face format.

CIELE KURZU:

• Through the study of the book Love and Responsibility, we want to help people find answers to their deep questions: What is Love? What is the meaning and beauty of my sexuality? Is it possible to live purely even in this day and age?
• By studying together the original text of Love and Responsibility, we want to help each other understand the difficult parts of the text and seek concrete ways to apply what Karol Wojtyla wrote to our lives.
• Develop presentation skills, the ability to work with text and think critically, the ability to communicate argue and discuss, the ability to navigate current issues and find connections between them.

ABOUT THE BOOK LOVE AND RESPONSIBILITY:

Karol Wojtyla began to think more deeply about the themes of marital love and sexuality through many conversations with students and friends whom he accompanied spiritually as a school chaplain. In the school year 1956/1957 and a year later, he taught a course in ethics called Love and Responsibility at the Catholic University of Lublin. He eventually elaborated his remarks and published them in a book under the same title in 1960.
