      Laity and Participation

      A Theology of Being the Church

      • 406 pages
      • 15 hours of reading

      The book explores the negative framing of laity within theology, highlighting their definition as merely non-ordained individuals and the perceived exclusion from meaningful participation. It critiques the focus on limitations rather than contributions, and emphasizes the lack of a unified, ecumenical lay theology. Through this examination, it seeks to redefine the role and significance of laity in religious contexts, advocating for a more inclusive and positive understanding of their involvement in faith communities.
