| Description: |
Some are calling the synod on synodality "the greatest consultation effort in human history". It is no small task to listen to the world's 1.36 billion Catholics, especially when many Catholics have felt marginalized or unwelcome.
This book places the broader issues relating to church reform in their historical context, exploring themes that have ongoing relevance to the universal church. Topics include ecclesial transfiguration and the episcopacy, clerical sex abuse, globalization of the church, and the theology of synodality. A number of chapters address issues of more local, or culturally-specific, significance.
What emerges is a reflection on the theme of reform within the church: what it has meant in the past, what it means for us now, and what it might mean in the future.
