Manly Catholic: Igniting Men to Light the World on Fire Ep 53 - Are You Still There? Part 2 on the Synod on Synodality Listening Sessions
Ryan and James discuss on this episode the Synod on Synodality listening sessions, specifically here at St. Roberts in Ada. According to the USCCB website, the Synod on Synodality:
- The Synod on Synodality is a two-year process of listening and dialogue beginning with a solemn opening in Rome on October 9 and 10, 2021 with each individual diocese and church celebrating the following week on October 17. The synodal process will conclude in 2023. Pope Francis invites the entire Church to reflect on a theme that is decisive for its life and mission: “It is precisely this path of synodality which God expects of the Church of the third millennium.” This journey, which follows in the wake of the Church’s “renewal” proposed by the Second Vatican Council, is both a gift and a task: by journeying together and reflecting together on the journey that has been made, the Church will be able to learn through Her experience which processes can help Her to live communion, to achieve participation, to open Herself to mission.
In short, the Church is inviting lay people to give their input on how the Church can improve in various aspects. In this episode, Ryan and James specifically talk about the topics relating to listening and dialogue in the Church and society and engaging more families. Remember men, our priests, bishops, and the Pope have to answer to Christ, not us.
James' Challenge: Pray specifically for the Holy Spirit to come and guide you every day this week.
