Summary/Abstract: Pope Francis repeatedly calls Catholics to conversion. However, he amplifies the very concept of “conversion” outlines new research perspectives, which include, among others, the problem of “ecological conversion” and the approach to the question of confessional conversion. The Pope also amplifies the model of conversion, modifying it and giving it a single-vector direction. It is therefore worth reflecting on the challenges that contemporary theological reflection and the Church’s pastoral activity are facing in the face of the papal call for conversion.
