Observations: The synod restarts a process that will take decades

About this episode

As the synod of bishops prepares for its sessions on synodality, many people look forward to big changes in the Church. Realistically, however, huge change is unlikely. The synod meetings are just the beginning of a process that will take generations. Father William Grimm  shares some thoughts on this.
