In a post-secular society contemporaries are challenged to raise andface existential questions in the midst of a plurality of (religious andnon-religious) worldviews. Children, adolescents and young adults areespecially eager for orientation in negotiating this plurality.Religious Education in European schools can provide them with solidinsights and a safe space to accept this challenge. In this book thenarrative, communicative and spiritual dimensions of religious educationare discussed. In the act of theologizing with children, adolescents andyoung adults, in each other's presence and with a view to wisdomtraditions, they are empowered to patiently engage in new ways.Alternative patterns of framing identity and community, experience andinterpretation, transcendence and immanence, can then emerge. The bookis rooted in the teaching praxis of the author and reaches out to thecenters of initial teacher education, where future leaders learn todiscover the theological dignity of religious education.
