Didache
What does it mean "to teach" in the context of a community of faith?
didache comes from didaskein (“to teach”)
Maria Harris writes: "First, there is a body of knowledge and behaviors that is taught; second, there is a set of processes through which is body is communicated — processes that as processes are teachings in themselves. Both are essential; both from the curriculum." (111)
