Summary/Abstract: Experiences are challenges in the field of learning. Experience in this sense means seeing and understanding how man in the face of what he meets should revise his assumptions, imagination and attitudes. The Bible is witnessing experiences of God, in which God is always seen as a challenge for the renewal of life and has provoked processes of learning which lead to a newly seen God, man and the world. God is experienced “with”, God is seen as working “with”, as one how initiates full life, as a challenge full of promise that calls to entrust to him all what – in the words of the New Testament – God wants to begin for building his kingdom with his people.
