Sažetak
On the occasion of the recent celebration of the 40th anniversary of the Zagreb Bible, the first complete contemporary translation of the Bible into Croatian, the author pays homage to it by putting the name of the »Zagreb Method« to a new and innovative way of reading and meditating the word of God in the Bible. His experience and knowledge in the field of individual and group work with the Bible yield a new and practical form of approaching the Bible with ten activities as a kind of aid to reading, thinking about and sharing the word of God. These ten activities are: (1) think of a title; (2) make an introductory prayer; (3) think of two questions to inspire a discourse; (4) frame the passage from icebreaking activities to work with the sacred text by writing a few introductory lines; (5) form five questions to recall attention to the text read; (6) create five questions to actualize the text; (7) think about a possible and appropriate activity or a game in connection with the text or its meaning; (8) find an illustrative example of things communicated by the text; (9) create five votive prayers; and (10) make a concluding prayer. Having explained the meaning and purpose of the ten activities, accompanied by illustrations, the author presents a student seminar paper as an example of how simple and easy it is to awaken interest and get a positive reaction reading the Bible and thinking about its message - with a little help from a new and innovative approach to the Bible called the »Zagreb Method«.
