The Method of Bibliodrama in the Liturgical Catechesis of Catechumens

This study explores the use of bibliodrama in the liturgical catechesis of catechumens. Liturgical catechesis provides the formation needed for the reception of the sacraments. In bibliodrama, catechumens become active partakers in their religious and spiritual development. Through interactions with their peers, participants experience the message of the dramatised biblical text, which speaks to them personally, in their particular situation of life. They encounter the text as the word of God and confront their own inner processes at the same time.
