This book comes at a pivotal moment, during the application and continuation of the Synod on synodality, whose success or failure depends largely on how the Catholic Church resolves the issue of women's roles in ministry.\"--\u003cb\u003eMassimo Faggioli, Trinity College Dublin\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe question of women in the ordained diaconate arose in the early 1970s at a Synod of Bishops. It was subsequently considered by three iterations of the International Theological Commission and two pontifical commissions.

As a result of October 2024 Synod discussion, the fact that the question is still open for resolution is now part of the Magisterium.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Phyllis Zagano\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Orbis Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.30w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781626986688\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhyllis Zagano\u003c\/strong\u003e is the author or editor of 27 books in religious studies and hundreds of articles and reviews in popular and academic journals.
