Summary/Abstract: The article Henri de Lubac – Theologian of the Church describes the circumstances in which de Lubac set the foundations for the renewal of the Church, and together with the theologian Daniélou started the collection Sources Chrétiennes (Christian Sources) which today already numbers 584 volumes. We cannot fail to mention the years he spent as a professor of theology in Lyon, as well as his suffering and temptations, and at the same time his ever-increasing love for the Church, and his great contribution to the Second Vatican Council. Thinking about the theology of de Lubac enriches us by interweaving the past and the present as we look at our own soul and its excellence as anima ecclesiastica. The article highlights the need to constantly revisit the sources and roots of faith. As the world changes and renews every day, so the Church gets reborn each day in the gift of the Eucharist. Ecclesia semper reformanda. We learn more and more about how important was the role of Cardinal Henri de Lubac, who, already with the conviction of his own work, has at the same time renewed the image of Christ’s bride – the Church.
