Paweł}, volume={Tom 15}, pages={99-117}, journal={Studia Nauk Teologicznych PAN}, howpublished={online}, year={2020}, publisher={Polskia Akademia Nauk - Komitet Nauk Teologicznych}, abstract={The pontificate of Pope Francis is marked by the mystery of the Divine mercy and its implementation. The Pope draws this truth from the Bible, testimonies of the saints and the modern world which is eager for mercy. Being concerned about the spiritual condition of the believers, he calls the Church a “field hospital”, emphasizing her mission and influence. He wants to help modern man reach God and read his calling. The announcement of the Extraordinary Year of Mercy serves this purpose. Pope Francis encourages the believers to get to know the gift of mercy better, accept it in their lives and share it with brothers and sisters in need, especially the poor and the suffering. As part of the Year of Mercy, Francis proposes various pastoral initiatives, but above all, he reminds us to reconcile with God in the sacrament of penance and reconciliation and to receive the indulgence. The Pope asks everyone to be interested in this unique event because we are all responsible for one another. The teaching is supported by the evangelical image of the merciful God who brings power to the weakest and conveys the hope that nobody is alone.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Mercy in the teaching of Pope Francis}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/119340/PDF/05_Warchol.pdf}, doi={10.31743/snt.9600}, keywords={mercy, God, Church, forgiveness, the poor, the excluded, the young}, }
