School for Synodality’s Podcasts
Exploring with guest speakers how to become a listening Church,
and what the practice of Synodality looks like in our own communities.
Series one - Practising Synodality
While the first Synod assembly of the 2021-24 Synod took place in Rome in October 2023 there was a renewed focus on the potential of Synodality in our Church. During this time the School for Synodality ran a series of eight webinars exploring becoming a listening Church with speakers from both England and Wales and from across the world that can help us explore what the practice of Synodality looks like in our own communities.
NEW! Series two - Reading the Final Document
We are delighted to be able to offer our successful Book Club Webinars that were held in May and June 2025 as a series of six podcasts in which we explore the Final Document of the Rome Synod assembly. In this series, Dr Avril Baigent one of the co-founders of the School for Synodality, is in conversation with experts from around the world to help us unpack the Synod Final Document.
Avril was invited to participate in the Synod as a facilitator in the final session of the Synod on Synodality that took place in October 2024. Over the six episodes, we will be exploring some of the key themes of the final document, which, although beautiful and profound, can at times, be a little dense and inaccessible. Experts will help us through each section, enabling us to better understand its fruits born of the participation of the global church for our own parish and community contexts.
