Across our church and our society, we are having profound dialogues about race, truth, justice, and healing. Prophetic Voices: Preaching and Teaching Beloved Community explores where that dialogue intersects with our faith. Join us and our invited guests as we share prophetic voices and explore the lectionary through the lens of social justice. You’ll hear ancient texts interpreted in new ways, find fodder for preaching and teaching, and make present-day connections to the prophetic voices of the Bible. This podcast will help us rethink how we hear, see, and interact with the lectionary readings throughout the liturgical year.

Preaching Advent 3 (A)
In this episode of Prophetic Voices, we’ll be discussing the lectionary for Advent 3 (A). The texts covered are Matthew 11:2-11, Canticle 15 (the Magnificat), and Isaiah 35:1-10.
Our thoughtful guests this week are:
The Rev. Dr. Erin Kirby, the mom of an amazing adult daughter and the rector of St. John’s Episcopal Church in Marion, N.C. She is a member of the Diocese of Western North Carolina's Beloved Community and Racial Reconciliation team. Having grown up in the mountains of western North Carolina, she moved back “as close to the land of my heart as I could get” during COVID. In her free time, she and her dog Buttercup enjoy a good long hike or just a day splashing around a mountain stream.
The Rev. LaClaire Atkins, vicar of St. Francis Episcopal Church in Greenville, S.C., the only fully Spanish-speaking congregation in the diocese. She has been actively serving the church since her early 20s. Of all her roles in life, she is most fulfilled by being wife to Michael and mommy to Jackson, who will turn 5 this coming January.
The Rev. Phil Hooper, rector of St. Anne Episcopal Church, West Chester, in the Diocese of Southern Ohio. He is a contributor to several Episcopal publications and spends his free time exploring the landscapes and history of the midwest with his fiancé, Matt. His sermons and writings can be found at byanotherroad.com.
Prophetic Voices is hosted by the Rev. Isaiah “Shaneequa” Brokenleg, The Episcopal Church’s interim officer for Indigenous Ministries. For more information on Becoming Beloved Community, visit iam.ec/becomingbelovedcommunity.
