Summary/Abstract: This study is presented in the form of a research-review article and consists of reflec- tions informed by a reading of Lech Wołowski’s monograph “The Problematics of Par- adox in the Thought of Henri de Lubac and Hans Urs von Balthasar”, while simultane- ously drawing from other works by the same researcher. The aim of this article is to present the paradox method as a means to deepen theological research. This method is portrayed as a proposition that can be applied in theological research, much like in other scientific domains. This approach may contribute to addressing the contem- porary crisis in dogmatics and serve in formulating responses to current “profound” questions posed by individuals and society.
