Theology Upstream Podcasts are a series of conversations hosted by two young(-ish) clergy, Rev. Ben and Rev. Chrissy, who are convinced that good theology still has something to say to people living their lives in the real world. With that conviction, Chrissy and Ben seek to read theological books and put their learnings into conversation with lived-experience. Continuing our 2018-19 study, Awakening the Body, Chrissy and Ben are publishing a series of conversations on Stephanie Paulsell’s book, Honoring the Body. In this second episode on Paulsell’s book, Honoring the Body, we are talking about bathing and clothing. Two pieces of our daily, ordinary lives that have serious spiritual implications – historically and for our contemporary lives. These practices are so prevalent in all of our lives that we could barely stay on track with the conversation for all the personal stories that kept popping up. All of this led us to the closing questions: Who are we? And, to whom do we belong?
