CONTRIBUIÇÕES DA HERMENÊUTICA PARA O TRABALHO DO EDUCADOR CRISTÃO.

This article aims to provoke a reflection on the dialogue, with a view to concrete action, between two areas vital to the activity and life of the Church: Christian Education and Hermeneutics. The Church, which is very present in the ecclesial communities through the programs of biblical teaching developed by them, is best known in the context of the Theological Academy as a discipline, but still a pressing need to bring the Church closer to the biblical text, which, as a rule, its interpretation. In order to do so, it is necessary first to define, although succinctly, both areas, in order to understand their contributions and relevance to the Church, and then to draw the possible relationship between Christian Education through the work of the educator Christian, with Hermeneutics, and this in a concrete way. It is recognized that, in a sense, teaching the Scriptures, as well as the Christian truths stemming from these same Scriptures, is a hermeneutical doing. It requires a great deal of hermeneutical work. It is necessary to ask how this relation can be effected, and it is to this question that the present text aims to respond. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
