Résumé

Social and charity workers are educated at theological faculties and their also take some courses in theology. The article deals with the current position of theology (theological topics) in their education. Currently, it appears that theological topics are incomprehensible to students and they tend to consider them as unnecessary, thus narrowing their understanding of charity as well as social work. By focusing on theological competence, we can achieve a more adequate definition of the goals of such education at theological faculties, including a more adequate definition of theological curricula content. The contribution offers the first definition of the theological competence of social and charity workers based on experience from the Czech Republic.
