On the eve of the highly anticipated publication of the final report for the Synod on Synodality, Jesuitical host Zac Davis and Inside the Vatican host Colleen Dulle speak with their colleague and synod delegate James Martin, S.J., about his experience this month inside the second assembly.

Zac, Colleen and Father Martin discuss:

  • The atmosphere at this year’s synod assembly compared to last year’s
  • How controversial topics like L.G.B.T. issues and women’s ordination have been tackled
  • The deep conversion that took place among the members and the long-term impact of this gathering on the global church

Jesuitical’s synod coverage is sponsored in part by the Jesuit School of Theology at Santa Clara University.
