16 SIGNIFICANT DAYS/CELEBRATIONS Opening Eucharist. Lent and Easter Liturgies May: The Month of Mary ANZAC Day Mercy Week Assumption Eucharist Year 12 Farewell Advent/Christmas Assembly YEAR Content Description Sacred Texts Old Testament Old Testament texts need to be understood in their proper historical and cultural contexts. Application of Biblical criticism (exegesis) to Old Testament texts enables a deeper understanding of the intentions of the human authors, and the recurring themes in the texts (e.g. covenant, liberation, preferential option for the poor, restoration, eschatology, parousia, judgement, hope, and redemption). The intention of the human author is important in determining the nature of the truth revealed in the text (e.g. historical truth, factual truth, religious truth). Old Testament texts are used by the Church to form and inform individuals, communities and traditions; assist personal and communal prayer; and provide insights into life and guidance for living (e.g. helping people to respond to global, ethical and justice issues and challenges). Apply Biblical criticism to explore the particular political, cultural, literary, social and geographical contexts of Old Testament texts. Examine recurring themes in Old Testament texts in order to evaluate their capacity to impact on Australian culture and lifestyle. STOT17 New Testament The Reign of God is the focus of Jesus life and teaching. The early Church preached Jesus life and teaching. New Testamenttexts need to be understood in their proper historical and cultural contexts. Application of Biblical criticism (exegesis) tonew Testament texts enables a deeper understanding of the audiences and intentions of the human authors (e.g. the use of common sources by the human authors of synoptic Gospels). The intention of the human author is important in determining the nature of the truth revealed in the text (e.g. historical truth, factual truth, religious truth). New Testament texts are used by the Church to form and inform individuals, communities and traditions; assist personal and communal prayer; and provide insights into life and guidance for living (e.g. helping people to respond to global, ethical and justice issues and challenges).

17 Use Biblical criticism to analyse and draw conclusions about similarities, differences and contradictions in the synoptic Gospels (e.g. considering the nature of each human author s community, theological perspectives, major themes and choice of source material). Examine stories about Jesus and his teachings and actions in New Testament texts (e.g. infancy narratives; miracles; Beatitudes; parables; passion, death and resurrection stories) in order to explore how Jesus teachings might be used to evangelise, and to critique Australian culture and lifestyle. STNT21 Christian Spiritual Writings and Wisdom Contemporary Christian spiritual writings reflect the signs of the times in the light of the Gospel, and use a variety of mediums and modes of communication to reveal the mystery of God and of life. Identify and describe how the mystery of God and of life is revealed through the message, mediums and modes of contemporary Christian spiritual writers. STCW12 Beliefs Trinity: God, Jesus the Christ, Spirit Christians believe that Jesus freely embraced God s work of salvation which was accomplished through his passion and death. Jesus obedience unto death on behalf of all people brought about the forgiveness of all sin. Christians believe redemption is that freedom from sin and freedom for life which God graciously gifts to the human person through Jesus Christ. Analyse the connections between the passion and death of Jesus and the Christian belief of God s work of salvation. Identify and describe the Christian belief that the paschal mystery of Jesus Christ provides ultimate meaning for human existence. BETR14 Christians believe that the nature of God is revealed in the Old Testament. The divine name, I Am Who Am, is understood in the sense that God is the fullness of being, every perfection, without origin and without end. Christian tradition expresses the riches of the divine name in a variety of terms such as goodness, abounding in steadfast love, trustworthiness, constancy, truth and faithfulness. Use appropriate textual evidence to explain the nature of God as revealed in Old Testament writings (e.g., God is great - Isaiah 40:12-17; God is one - Deuteronomy 6:4;

18 God abounds in steadfast love and faithfulness - Exodus 34:6; God alone IS - Exodus 3:13-15). Explain how the variety of terms for God used in Christian tradition influences the ways in which Australians understand the nature of the divine. BETR15 Human Existence Christians believe that God is the source of all existence. God is revealed in the person of Jesus and through all of creation. Knowledge and understanding of God require both human reason and faith. Explain what can be known about God as revealed through all of creation (e.g. loving Creator, providence, immanence, transcendence). Compare different ways humans come to a knowledge and understanding of God (e.g. through the person of Jesus, through the work of the Spirit, through human reason; through faith, through experience). BEHE11 Christians believe that faith is an authentic and free human act made possible by grace. Faith seeks understanding; it is not contrary to reason. Describe the characteristics of a Christian understanding of faith (i.e. faith as a grace; faith as a human act; faith and understanding; freedom of faith; necessity of faith; perseverance in faith). Make connections between the Christian understanding of faith and the personal, relational, and spiritual dimensions of human experience. BEHE12 Christians believe that God created the human person in the image of God; as body animated by a spiritual soul. The body and soul are truly one. According to Catholic teaching, the human soul is individually created for each person by God, infused at the time of conception, and is immortal. Express the Christian understanding of the human person as made in the image of God and animated by a spiritual soul. Apply Catholic teaching about the human soul to a contemporary issue (e.g. reproductive technology, euthanasia). BEHE13 World Religions The major world religions have a role in the quest for meaning and purpose in the lives of individuals and communities. Religious traditions, while distinct and different, share some distinguishing elements (e.g. attitudes, beliefs and practices) that have developed over time.

19 Research and examine distinguishing components of a religion (e.g. core beliefs, sacred texts, rituals, key figures, sacred space). Examine and discuss ways in which the spiritual writings of a religious tradition inform and form individuals, communities and traditions. Analyse the connections between ethical frameworks of a religious tradition and responses to contemporary issues. Explore ways in which religious traditions express their beliefs through ritual and daily living. BEWR12 Church Liturgy and Sacraments Christian rituals embody beliefs that are expressed in structured actions or codified norms/rites. In the Catholic Church, the Sacraments of Commitment (Marriage and Holy Orders) give expression to the creative love of God, and call believers to a Genuine relationship, service of others, and building up of the Christian community. For Christians, marriage is a covenant expressed as an intimate partnership of life and love between man and woman, intended by God in creation. Christian marriage presumes Genuine freedom and understanding by both persons. In major Christian churches, the call to a ministry of word, liturgical and community leadership is ritualised through a variety of ceremonies and rites (e.g. ordination, endorsement and election). In the Catholic Church, through the Sacrament of Holy Orders, bishops, priests and deacons are ordained to make Christ s priesthood present through their service and leadership of God s people. Christian funerals express solidarity of the living and the dead (Communion of Saints). They combine prayer for the forgiveness of sin and for a merciful judgement; hope inresurrection; and gratitude for the blessings that came to others through the life of the deceased person. Analyse some Christian rituals (e.g. Marriage, Holy Orders, funerals) using models of ritual analysis, to draw conclusions about the beliefs being expressed, and how they meet the spiritual and emotional needs of believers. CHLS16 In major Christian traditions, some rituals are prepared according to formal principles and rubrics. These rituals are referred to as liturgy. Liturgical adaptation is provided for in Christian traditions to enable expression of the cultural diversity of believers and encourage their active participation. Investigate examples of Christian liturgy (e.g. Eucharist, marriage, funerals) in order to identify some formal principles and rubrics applied. Critique examples of Christian liturgy for their capacity to express the cultural diversity of believers and encourage their active participation. CHLS17

20 People of God Christians believe they are called through Baptism (Latin vocátió - calling ) to use their gifts in their profession, family life, Church and civic commitments in the service of God and for the sake of the greater common good. In the Christian tradition, the response to this call (one s vocation) involves choosing from the following four main states of life: that of a single person; a married person; a celibate member of a religious congregation (sister, brother, priest); an ordained minister (e.g. priest, deacon). For Catholic Christians, Sacraments of Commitment (Marriage and Holy Orders) are particular expressions of vocation and discipleship. Christians believe the Holy Spirit empowers them to live out Christ s mission in the world. Investigate how and why Christians (individuals or groups, past or present) have used their gifts in the service of God and for the sake of the common good (e.g. social, political or ethical reform; defence of human rights; action for social justice; ecological stewardship). CHPG12 Church History Awareness of history is an essential dimension of any study about religion. Historical knowledge is fundamental to understanding and appreciating the purpose, meaning and significance of religion in the lives of individuals and communities. Investigate patterns of belief and religious traditions, and the ways in which these contribute to shaping and interpreting people s lives and experiences, past and present. Examine and account for significant continuity and change in religions in a variety of historical and cultural contexts. CHCH10 Christian Life Moral Formation Christian moral teaching provides guidelines and limits regarding ethical and moral responses to global issues and challenges, such as justice, tolerance, reconciliation, peace, ecology, nonviolence, respect and appreciation for others. Analyse and appraise the contribution of Christian moral teaching to global issues and challenges. CLMF15 Christian teachings about good and evil (e.g. the concepts of sin, freedom, conscience, grace, virtues, human dignity and integrity, identity, rights and responsibilities, consequences) inform the personal, relational and spiritual dimensions of human existence.

21 Examine Christian teachings about good and evil and critically analyse their significance for personal integrity and the good of community. CLMF16 Mission and Justice Catholic social teaching proposes principles for reflection, provides criteria for judgment, and gives guidelines for action in response to social justice issues (e.g. world peace, environmental protection, political freedom, capital punishment, human rights, poverty, suffering, education, employment). Examine and appraise the influence of Catholic social teaching on life and societal issues. CLMJ12 Prayer and Spirituality Prayer in the Christian tradition nurtures the spiritual life of believers. Vocal prayer, meditative prayer and contemplative prayer are ancient examples of this. Analyse and appraise the significance of prayer in the Christian tradition (vocal, meditative and contemplative) in the lives of individuals and communities (e.g. spiritual and emotional needs, devotional life, personal search for meaning, cultural identity, personal and communal wellbeing).
