Abstract
Religious upbringing has its specificities and laws. This article approaches that upbringing from the perspective of prophetic upbringing, starting from the family upbringing in spirituality to social and political dimension of upbringing. The prophetic dimension of religious upbringing is analysed in this article in three steps. In the first, some fundamental elements of religious upbringing in the context of family are presented. Starting from definitions of religious upbringing, through family as the fundamental community of upbringing in which faith takes place, the formation of religious attitude as a process that involves the whole person is analysed. Manifestations of religious attitude are characterised by cultural and historical heritage and social-cultural conditions that are often proving to be obstacles to faith. Therefore, the second part analyses exhaustively components, conditions, and presuppositions of the early spiritual upbringing of the child in the family. The third part discusses and points out some significant elements of prophetic upbringing, especially in the dimension of personal, social, and political upbringing.
