Summary: | This article seeks to contribute to the discourse from the perspective of opinion editorials (op-eds). We searched and collected a large sample of op-eds (N=110) from three major national newspaper archives to achieve this purpose. A thematic content analysis captured the central theme of the data related to the research question. There is a pressing need for the leaders of the Church to reform in three specific areas of its institution that can enable them to generate actions suitable to the changing social conditions. The results of this study have application potential for identifying the factors that could influence the reception or non-reception of the Church’s social and moral teachings in Philippine society with all its dynamic problems and challenges. |
