Divine Pedagogy and Human Methodology
  • GDC 140-162/NDC Chapter 4
  • Thursday, December 26, 2013

2
Divine Pedagogy refers to principles by which God
has shared His life with us.
  1. The pedagogy of God refers to His slow, patient,
    Fatherly guidance, both in the lives of the
    individual but also with His people as a whole.
  2. The pedagogy of Christ is seen in His Incarnation
    and in His entire life, in which He worked
    through words, signs and works, especially to the
    poor and sinners.

3
Divine Pedagogy refers to principles by which God
has shared His life with us.
  1. The pedagogy of the Church shows us that Gods
    grace comes to us through His Body, the Church.
  2. The pedagogy of the Holy Spirit is demonstrated
    through the interior work of the Holy Spirit in
    the life of each baptized person.

4
Divine Pedagogy refers to principles by which God
has shared His life with us.
  1. Catechesis is called to reflect these principles
    of Divine Pedagogy in the human methodologies we
    use.

2. Human methodologies refer to the ways in which
we, as catechists, pass on the Faith to others.
Methodologies
  1. Are to be diverse, but never against the
    principles of the Gospel.
  2. Are at the service of Revelation, that is, a
    relationship with Jesus Christ and all that He
    has revealed to us through Scripture and
    Tradition under the authority of the magisterium.

2. Human methodologies refer to the ways in which
we, as catechists, pass on the Faith to others.
Methodologies
  1. Are both inductive and deductive.
  2. Use human experience as the place where the Faith
    is lived on a daily basis.

2. Human methodologies refer to the ways in which
we, as catechists, pass on the Faith to others.
Methodologies
  1. Use memorization to further conversion.
  2. Work with the person of the catechist and the
    entire Christian community in passing on the
    Faith.

3. See Handouts on the Ecclesial Method.

For Discussion
  1. Taking a Bible, flip through the Gospel of St.
    Matthew, paying attention to Jesus actions.
    Given His actions (healings, miracles, teachings,
    sacrifice, etc), what can we learn about Gods
    pedagogy, that is, His principles of passing on
    the Faith to us?
  2. How can catechetical methods both serve and hurt
    our catechetical endeavors? Please give
    examples.
  3. Put together a session based on the Ecclesia
    Method below. Use the blank form below.
