    Sinodalidad y laicado. Corresponsabilidad y participación de los laicos en la vocación sinodal de la Iglesia
    (Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2019) Peña, C. (Carmen)
    Under Pope Francis, synodality is a key concept for understanding the Church and the exercise of ecclesiastical government. This paper reflects on the synodal vocation of the People of God, and of the laity in particular, by exploring in depth the consequences of the ecclesial recognition of the fundamental rights of the laity and their participation in the threefold munus of Christ. The current canonical regulation envisages broad areas of action for the laity. Such law and ecclesiastical praxis help move beyond doctrinal debates regarding the link between holy orders and the exercise of the power of government. In addition, the author analyzes the regulation of lay ministries in canon 230, appraising their coherence with underlying ecclesiological principles.

    Fe e intención requerida para el matrimonio sacramento. Consecuencias canónicas del documento de la Comisión Teológica Internacional
    (Servicio de Publicaciones de la Universidad de Navarra, 2021) Peña, C. (Carmen)
    The International Theological Commission issued “The Reciprocity between Faith and Sacraments in the Sacramental Economy” in March 2020, which explores in depth the dialogical nature of the sacraments and the need for adequate faith in their celebration, as well as the question of the sacramental dimension of marriages between baptized nonbelievers. Having analyzed the text and highlighting its main contributions, the author addresses the canonical effects of these theological principles, underscoring the various ways in which the ITC document opens up the possibility of deepening and revising canonical practice. Specifically, the article deals with how lack of faith could affect the validity of marriage through error or exclusion from sacramentality, and through exclusion or error in relation to the good of the spouses, as well as its influence on preparation and admission to marriage, and mixed marriages.
