Sažetak
The coronavirus pandemic, and no less the earthquake, together with the challenges we face in migration, have caused numerous problems in the lives of many people who are looking for answers, both in professional and personal, in spiritual and religious life. Therefore, the first part of this paper elaborates some features of life during the pandemic that affected the whole world, the earthquakes that hit Zagreb and Sisak-Moslavina counties as
well as the population of migrants, primarily observed in a spiritual- religious context. Who is more called than a religious education teacher to provide an answer to the fundamental question of what it really means to believe and live the faith today, in this time of challenge and temptation? A credible answer to modern challenges can be given only by a religious education teacher who is a “convincingly convinced believer” with an intense witness dimension,
a witness of God’s love and mercy and a man who acknowledges, accepts and respects the differences and richness of others. The paper also used the statements of religious education teachers from in-depth interviews conducted by qualitative research in the Zagreb Archdiocese and the Sisak Diocese.
