Theology of the Laity

Theology of the Laity emphasizes that all baptized members of the Church share in its mission. It teaches that laypeople—those who are not clergy—are called to actively participate in spreading Jesus’ teachings through their everyday lives, work, and community involvement. Their role is not secondary but essential, as they collaborate with priests and religious to build a more just and compassionate society. This theology affirms that faith isn’t limited to church services but extends to how they live out Gospel values daily, making them vital agents of spiritual and social transformation.
