Dr. Tom Neal talks with Adam Storey, Vice Chancellor of Canonical Affairs for the Diocese of Des Moines, about how canon law, rooted in Vatican II, protects the rights and dignity of the baptized, especially through the laity’s “right to be heard” in Church governance. They also discuss the art of listening, shared responsibility in decision-making, and how a just canonical structure strengthens the Church’s credibility and witness in the world.
