Many believe that one of the most significant contributions of Vatican II was its theology of the laity. Since the council we have seen the flourishing of lay ecclesial ministry and various forms of lay spirituality. However, some have criticized these developments for failing to attend to the council's teaching about the laity's primary obligations in the secular world. This presentation will first explore the council's teaching and its uneven implementation since the council and then consider where we need to go from here. |
