Summary/Abstract: The current models that are offered by the media and are indiscriminately imitated especially by young people represent, with few exceptions, some frivolous, immoral, unfortunate, painful and opportunistic examples, even if they are wearing the carefully embellished mask of the ”epidermal perfection”. The Church's mission is to bring true models of life, namely the lighthearted people with bright personalities, and hearts full of grace, peace and warmth. We mention Father Miron Mihăilescu the disciple of the youth and enthusiasm of our great theologian Dumitru Stăniloae, who gave up academic degrees and diplomas to be a spiritual father, to bear the sons of men born of flesh as sons of the Kingdom of Heaven. He imposed a veritable spiritual ”scale” to Christian education, which can not aim anything else but the formation of the liturgically renewed man, the Eucharistic man.
