Abstract

Sinodalnost se kao konstitutivna dimenzija života Crkve ujedno očituje i kao ključna oznaka mentaliteta i stila djelovanja njezinih članova. Pontifikat pape Franje, a osobito recentni sinodalni proces vezan za XVI. opću skupštinu Sinode biskupa u Rimu, na zoran je način upozorio na nekoliko ključnih dinami-zama sinodalnosti koji su više nego značajni u suočenju sa zahtjevnostima i izazovima pastoralnoga djelovanja danas. Ti će dinamizmi u tome pogledu biti još važniji u budućnosti. U ovome se radu istražuju neki elementi dinamizama slušanja, prihvaćanja, uvažavanja, dijaloga, razlučivanja, uključivanja, podrške i pratnje koji u zahtjevnostima djelovanja predstavljaju važne uporišne točke stabilnoga i unaprjeđujućega angažmana. U isto se vrijeme upozorava na ona područja i elemente pastorala u kojima trajna aktualizacija naznačenih dinamizama predstavlja nezamjenjivu okosnicu napretka u angažmanu.
