Prominent among the reforms that Pope Francis has been calling for is his call for a synodal Church where everyone can speak up and everyone listens to one another. Collegiality of the bishops is not enough: we also need synodality where all the People of God are encouraged to contribute and where the sense of the faith of the people is respected, is listened to and influences decision making in the Church.
What would such a Church look like? Why has it not been happening? What are the prospects of it happening soon in Australia?
