Today's conversation is a stimulating exploration of the power of pilgrimage and the intentionally contemplative life.  Discussing the power of sensuality in our spirituality, we cover how we are stripped away and become available to transformation.

Our guest is a treasure trove:

S. Brent Rodriguez-Plate is a writer, editor, public speaker, and college professor. He's interested in how sensuality affects spirituality. His writings all circle around questions of the ways sense perceptions influence ways of being religious, and how religious traditions change our ways of perceiving the world around us. In other words, religion and spirituality are rooted in the body. Along these lines, he has authored and edited fifteen books, while his essays have appeared in Salon.com among other journals.  He is the co-founder and managing editor of "Material Religion: The Journal of Objects, Art, and Belief," co-founder and president of SCRIPT (Society for Comparative Research in Iconic and Performative Texts),
