摘要：This article primarily examines individualism and its influence on the individual, family and parish. As a phenomenon which is present in all areas of human life, individualism has especially left a mark on the religious life of Christians. A personalised approach to each person individually is offered as a solution, through which one’s own self-worth will be pointed out at, enabling him to realize God personally and accept Him freely. As the foundation of every society, family has not been struck by individualism any less, which is evident in the alienation between parents and children as well as in their nability to transfer their own faith and values, which they themselves had received from their parents, to their children. The conflict arises between the things that have been inherited and the things which are chosen freely, even though these two terms should supplement each other. Fast life tempo, alienation and the many other negative indicators of today’s life requirements have left a huge mark on the parish and prompt deliberation on how to approach an anonymous man who has been merged amongst the masses. Some of those attempts are through church movements, church communities and groups.
