Paulo Freire’s birth centenary provides us,  besides the celebrations, with an opportunity to catch up with Paulo Freire’s legacy. This essay contribu-tes to the reconstruction of this legacy through the socialization of Paulo Freire’s reflections, in lectures in Australia, where he was invited by the National Council of Churches in Australia (NCCA), in 1974. As a work develo-ped with the World Council of Churches, the theological dimension and the pedagogical dimension are mixed in the movement to transform society.In accordance with progressive sectors of the churches, the liberation theme receives particular attention from Paulo Freire. Themes such as Christian faith and Marxism, the role of the Church in liberating the oppressed and the attitude of Christians towards dehumanizing forces, for instance, are wefted together with the concepts of dialogue, awareness and educational motivation. After a brief presentation of the transcribed and translated material, the following themes are discussed in our reflection: a) histo-ricity and coherence; b) Latin American roots; and c) the theology of the educator. We conclude by indicating the permanent act of reflection and re-elaboration of Freire’s thought, which is expressed in the relationship between the author’s speeches and previous and subsequent works.
