#46 - Amanda Osheim

Yes, the show is back, and for our first episode after the long hiatus, we’re sharing Stephen Okey’s conversation with Amanda Osheim. In this episode we learn how she was drawn to study theology, and in particular ecclesiology or the study of the church. In light of that, we talked extensively about the concept of synodality, what’s happening with the synod on synodality, and some of the questions people have about it.

Dr. Amanda Osheim is an Associate Professor of Practical Theology at Loras College (https://www.loras.edu/) in Dubuque Iowa, where she is also the Endowed Professor for the Breitbach Catholic Thinker and Leaders Program. She earned her BA and MA from University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, MN; and her Ph.D. in Systematic Theology from Boston College. Her research focuses in ecclesiology, and her first book, A Ministry of Discernment: The Bishop and the Sense of the Faithful (https://amzn.to/44ot8q6), was published by Liturgical Press in 2016.
