Feeding the sheep!

Having said all that, I do believe one systematic approach is particularly necessary.

I believe doctrine should be taught in the following order:

Orthodoxy, or right belief
Orthopraxy, or right practice
Orthopathy, or right experience

Each item is an outgrowth of the one which comes before. I've seen a lot of teachers attempt to teach people how to live a Christian life, only to see consistent moral failure in their students. Why? Because their students don't have an anchor of orthodoxy to explain to them why it's needful for them to live a certain way.

God is holy is a statement of orthodoxy. It has to come first. Living holy lives is a matter of orthopraxy. It comes second, dependent upon the first. Having right beliefs about God, and practicing the Christian life correctly allows us to have orthopathy, or right experiences (i.e. God is holy, we live holy, we experience holiness, always in that order).
