Kerygma

Pope Francis emphasized that the kergyma is not only first in the chronological sense, but it is "first in a qualitative sense because it is the principal proclamation, the one which we must hear again and again in different ways, the one which we must announce one way or another throughout the process of catechesis, at every level and moment...Nothing is more solid, profound, secure, meaningful and wisdom-filled than that initial proclamation. All Christian formation consists of entering more deeply into the kerygma, which is reflected in and constantly illumines, the work of catechesis, thereby enabling us to understand more fully the significance of every subject which the latter treats."<ref>https://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/apost_exhortations/documents/papa-francesco_esortazione-ap_20131124_evangelii-gaudium.html#IV.%E2%80%82Evangelization_and_the_deeper_understanding_of_the_kerygma</ref>

In his Exhortation to the youth, ''[[Christus Vivit]]'', Christ is Alive, Pope Francis emphasize "what is essential", which is called "the three great truths that all of us need constantly to keep hearing": (1) God loves you: "At every moment, you are infinitely loved;" (2) Christ, out of love, sacrificed himself completely in order to save you: Christ "continues to save and redeem us by the power of his total self-surrender. Look to his cross;" (3) Christ is alive! "Alive, he can be present in your life at every moment."<ref>https://www.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/apost_exhortations/documents/papa-francesco_esortazione-ap_20190325_christus-vivit.html#CHAPTER_FOUR</ref>
