From your other post on Fr. Johannes Schwarz : “Catechesis is hard. It’s so difficult to strike the right balance between saying to much and too little, between the obscure and the simplistic, between too-serious and too-flipant. ”
I really like this observation.
If catechesis is anything like architecture, it’s very difficult to even know if one has suceeded. It’s an art where one attempts to strike a balance blindfolded.

I guess today’s saint (John Bosco) is sort of the Francesco Borromini of catechesis.
