A Message for Contemporary People," organized by the Catholic University of Lublin and the Pontifical Biblical Commission in October 2021. Drawing on the document of the Pontifical Biblical Commission "What Is Man? A Journey through Biblical Anthropology," the authors analyze topics related to biblical anthropology and their significance for contemporary society. They often refer to the concept of the image of God in man and the relational nature of the human being.

The book also addresses topics such as hermeneutics and methodological approach to biblical anthropology, human emotions, sexuality, the logic of solidarity and relationship to the created world, historical and eschatological orientation of man, the essence of the human "self," interaction between mind, body, and desires, and free will. The authors seek to answer the question of how to communicate the truths of biblical anthropology to contemporary people, engaging in dialogue with modern science without losing the specificity of the biblical message.
