They can experience ordinary decisions about attire, accessories, hairstyles, and movement as complex, and occasionally precarious, choices around how to bring flesh to their sermons. They can also experience the extraordinary power of their bodies,...

Yet both must compete with other ways we receive and process information in an increasingly distracted world.
