The question of Jesus as the Christ leads to the heart of the Christian faith. At the same time, Christological themes present a particular challenge, not only because the personal confession to Christ escapes all mediation, but also because the Christological language of tradition is in many cases no longer understood and a translation is required. Because of this, there is a large temptation to restrict oneself to a seemingly easier >Jesusology<, instead of focusing on the central theological questions. In contrast, this work makes accesses to Christology possible, especially for a school context. It is oriented towards fundamental Christological themes, includes interpretations of children and young people gathered via empirical research collected and opens up didactic perspectives for teaching practice.
