Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with the problem of catechesis in contemporary secularized society with respect to Czech conditions, where the view of religion and Church is often very strongly distorted. This reflection is based on the method of a famous 19th century personality, Don Bosco, who perfectly united supernatural with natural, divine with human. His work is considered to be an inspiration for the education of young people nowadays and for the dialogue between the Church and modern society. Catechesis as a presentation of Christian ideals in an attractive and addressing way, or the effort to call a reaction on the Gospel, is the everlasting need.
