Drawing on the documents of Vatican II (Lumen Gentium and others) as well as biblical, theological, and spiritual resources, Hinze seeks to develop a deeper understanding of what it means to foster prophetic obedience in a dialogical church. In the spirit of works by Johann Baptist Metz, Ignacio Ellacuria, Jon Sobri, Dean Brackley, and Sandra Schneiders, this book advances a practical fundamental ecclesiology that combines a constructive theological argument with an argument for greater lay participation and grassroots democracy in the church, based on historical descriptions of church practices in history and society.
