The Role of Our Bodies in Worship: Dr. W. David O. Taylor

Dr. W. David O. Taylor joined the Fuller faculty in 2014. Prior to his appointment at Fuller, Dr. Taylor served as a pastor for ten years in Austin, Texas. Born and raised in Guatemala City, he has lectured widely on the arts in both academic and popular settings, from Thailand to South Africa. Taylor is the author of many books in the field of theology, culture, and the arts; his most recent book is A Body of Praise: Understanding the Role of Our Physical Bodies in Worship (Baker Academic, 2023), which forms the foundation for our conversation, after we discuss the short time he spent with Bono.
