Christian Teaching

"Doctrine must be taught formally in the home, but it is also caught while hearing stories and receiving instruction at the table and the bedside. Christian teaching must be a life style not an event. Diligence is paramount if any success is to be expected" (Donald W. Schanzenbach, Faithful Parents - Faithful Children: Why We Homeschool, 6).

The same could be said regarding the Lord's Service: doctrine must be formally taught by the Liturgy and through sermonizing, but it is also "caught" at the Table. Liturgy is a life style, not a bare fact or event.
