Women Are Shaking Up the Vatican + Claire Giangravé



A synod on synodality? Sign us up!

For the past three years, the global Catholic Church has been undergoing a period of discernment. One of the main issues of contention? Women’s ordination.


Given our interest in women’s leadership in Protestant churches, we’ve been very curious how that conversation happens on the Catholic side. And now that we seem to have some clarity on where the Church will land on the issue, at least in the near term, we wanted to have RNS’s Vatican reporter, Claire Giangravé, give us the inside scoop.

Plus, some popcorn with the pope.
