Overview

In under a decade, 'synodality' has emerged as a key theme in Catholicism, particularly in redefining the Church's identity as the People of God. Stemming from early church councils, it's now reshaping the Church's hierarchical structure into a communal pilgrimage. Pope Francis advocates this shift towards a synodal Church, emphasizing service over power. The implications of synodality are being explored in the 2023/24 synod in Rome, but its significance requires ongoing examination and engagement from all corners of the Catholic Church. Reflecting this, the Catholic Theological Association of Great Britain offers succinct essays to aid collective exploration and renewal.
