The teaching is oriented to a university level in Czech Republic and also USA universities, as well as to lectures for groups in Czech Republic. Lectures are specified to the themes that had not been taught for decades and also do not appear too much from the point of view of Christianity till now. Meetings and Groups: Learning is more powerful in the context of common meetings, sharing, practicing faith, and common discussions, just being together and playing as a form of learning, and mainly common prayer as well as common help to needy.   Groups are formed by students as well by people from different professions: from politicians, through all kinds of different professions to prisoners, where is the activity more missions oriented. In prison it is work especially for women, sentenced for short or long terms and also to imprisoned moms, who can have their kids in prison. This work we do in cooperation with The Salvation Army. In addition to regular visits, the activity contains also correspondence with women, continually creating a net of volunteers, and collecting needed items for prisoners and sending packages to individuals there. Consulting and solving problems of prisoners.   A special group that meets in Prague is a big number of pastors and missioners of different churches and denominations, usually of English speaking community who work in CZ. The purpose is to connect each other, create ecumenical meetings and cooperation between different people, who have the same vision. Common meetings and new personal friendships through all churches is in a country that used to be historically and by tradition always separated, is very useful. Public promotion:  there is a big spiritual vacuum in society, which had missed freedom and inner conviction for forty years. Mainly, many historical problems have yet to be addressed.   Therefore, in this moment we are finishing a book about the Psychology of Totalitarian Regime in our country. It deals with freedom, persecution, incarceration, but also psychology of ordinary day, school, churches, and institution of family, interpersonal relationships, stress, tiredness, and desires of people during the totality. It describes in details the direct pressure toward churches, the life of believers and mainly the psychological and social changes. It describes the development of life style during the period of communism and the way out of it.
