Abstract
Dei Verbum is a document from the Second Vatican Council which presents a fundamental understanding of the Scripture in the Church. Regarding its principal position as the source of Christian's faith, the magisterium urges the significance of proclaiming Scripture through homilies, catechesis, and, fellowship. Nowadays, Christians increasingly encourage to involve in this ministry. Nevertheless, there is a huge gap in understanding and awareness of the meaning and role of the Scripture, between clerics and laities. This condition shows how in the Church, especially in Indonesia, theology is still a limited domain of scholars and clergies. Driven by the spirit of communion promoted by the Second Vatican Council and the call from Dei Verbum to bring Scripture to life in the lives of all Christians, this paper presents a simple study of the problems facing Christians regarding their understanding of the Scriptures and the recommendations inspired by this document to address these issues.
