Observing contemporary events form Europe’s social life, one should reach for the roots of the civilization. It seems crucial to understand one’s own identity based upon European culture (cutrura christiana). This article is trying to answer the question: How can evangelization help to preserve the classical (Christian) understanding of culture? With a view to answering this question, the term culture will be analyzed; particular aspects of culture will be outlined, especially religion; there will be an attempt to analyze the relationship between culture, religion and evangelization. This analysis is intended to show the way to be pursued by contemporary man, who wants to live in harmony in human and God’s world.
