A Synodal Church: The Church in a Journey or a Journey in the Church?

Abstract

Observation after facilitating few sessions of the people of God on the synod on synodality shows that it fills the atmosphere of the Church with the  mixture of extreme doubts and exceeding joy. This article, therefore, is an attempt to contribute to the debate and provide footpaths for fruitful and  enriching discussions as the synod goes on. The question that is most prominent in this discussion is whether the synod is the Church in movement or a  movement in the Church. This goes on to point out that the Church of the future will be largely determined by the way we see and handle this synod.
