    Living the Catholic Faith in the Market Economy of Vietnam
    (2011-05-12) Nguyen, Van Thanh
    The study explores the challenges of the market economy with its orientation of socialism in which the Catholic Church in Vietnam is to rise. They may be represented by four words: Interest, Individualism in the socioeconomic structure and Institutionalism and Inadequacy in the ecclesial structure. In order to seek a theological basis for living faith, it uncovers the keeping of the covenant in Hebrew Scriptures, the way of cultivating Kingdom discipleship in the New Testament and some relevant themes in Catholic social teaching. It proposes pastoral planning that consists of three elements: vision, strategy and structure. This may be represented by: Comprehensive commitment to the values of the Kingdom in all spheres of social life (Vision), the Church as contrast society promoting and practicing these values (Strategy) and the parish as community of communities, where the communion of parish-based small Christian communities is to be expressed and developed (Structure).
