In a post-Christian age we often still teach as though our hearers still know the basics. But often they don't. Often we don't. Seminary grads are eager to pass on what we learned from the academy. But our hearers often need much, much more basic teaching. How do I pray? Like, how do I hold my hands? What do I say? What do we hope will happen? If Christendom was a time when we could refresh and remind people of what they already knew, post-Christendom is a time of catechesis. This is not dumbing down. It is passing on wisdom.

The Week of Prayer for Christian Unity is an annual event observed by Christians around the world, typically from January 18 to 25.

The goal of this week is to promote unity and ecumenical cooperation among Christian denominations. It's a time for Christians from different traditions and confessions to come together in prayer, worship, and dialogue, focusing on what unites them rather than what divides them.
