Education

“The gospel calls Christians to learn and to teach. Teaching is an important means of communicating this central message of the Christian faith. The Word is proclaimed in preaching and in the sacraments, and it is also proclaimed in teaching. . .To teach effectively the good news of God’s activity in Christ means relating revelation to the learners’ own existence, helping the learners grasp the correlation of God’s answer in the gospel to their own existential question of estrangement and sin.”
