Keywords: catechesis; early/middle and late adulthood; life changes and transformations; maturing in faith; stages of faith

Summary/Abstract: Maturing in faith means permanent and lifelong changes and transformations. Today, an adult believer can only survive if he/she personally discovers the reason of believe and the transformation of faith. The article covers typical features of early, middle and late periods of adulthood in terms of both psychological and spiritual development in individual decades. Adult catechesis gives room both to the proclamation of faith as well as to act in the faith what an adult lives, experiences, thinks and decides in different life stages – as a person who works on him/herselves, and as a Christian.
