Related to the homily? —KCT
 
Homily is conversation with a congregation. Not expecting a dual conversation with feedback right away, but conversation to the extent that you are connecting with every day issues to scripture. Very effective for those of us who preach regularly.

This is different from catechesis…whereby you are acting as teacher.

Actually, the liturgical homily must have catechesis.
The Catechism teaches:
  1. “Therefore, the study of the sacred page should be the very soul of sacred theology. The ministry of the Word, too - pastoral preaching, catechetics and all forms of Christian instruction, among which the liturgical homily should hold pride of place** -** is healthily nourished and thrives in holiness through the Word of Scripture.”
  2. “The liturgy is the summit toward which the activity of the Church is directed; it is also the font from which all her power flows.” [13] It is therefore the privileged place for catechizing the People of God.
Code: 
 The ***GENERAL DIRECTORY
FOR CATECHESIS*** teaches:
The process of evangelization

– #48– constantly nourishes the gift of communion (121) amongst the faithful by means of continuous education in the faith (homilies and other forms of catechesis), the sacraments and the practice of charity;*** ***

*** The ***GENERAL DIRECTORY
FOR CATECHESIS teaches:
  1. The ministry of the word is at the service of this process of full conversion. The first proclamation of the Gospel is characterized by the call to faith; catechesis by giving a foundation to conversion and providing Christian life with a basic structure; while ongoing education in the faith, in which the place of the homily must be underlined, is characterized by being the necessary nourishment of which every baptized adult has need in order to live.
Thus the Church is clear that the homily is the primary place for catechesis (teaching the word of God in scripture and Sacred Tradition, as presented by the Church)
