Sažetak
Religion can be studied as a social phenomenon from the standpoint of anthropology, sociology, philosophy and psychology, but also as a personal view of the world, and in this sense it is not a biologically transferrable complexity, since the control over religious life is the matter of personal experience, personal perception of the world. God does not use force, but acts on communicative abilities of an individual that lead him/her to accept an offered idea willingly. It is certain that communication will be as good as a person is open to himself/herself and the others. In a constant, variable tendency to point to the significance and function of religious communication in the development process of an individual, we must also accentuate the significance of the method of indirect persuasion, using the practice of integrating emotions with reason and will. By analyzing the strategy of a new model of religious communication in the domain of interpersonal communication, we will come to the conclusion indicating that this model, in practice, offers concepts and patterns of behaviour in various social groups. The paper also deals with the review of a sociological phenomenon of religious communication with individuals, groups, and society. In a biological, social and psychological sense, an individual person is incomplete, unfinished. An individual can live only in society, in a cultural environment that also includes other people. The place where genuine communication is present is also the place where true values are shared, thus helping individuals to prosper.
