Prophetic Voices: Preaching and Teaching Beloved Community

Preaching Advent 1 (A)


Listen Later

In this episode of Prophetic Voices, we’ll be discussing the lectionary for Advent 1 (A). The texts covered are Matthew 24:36-44, Romans 13:11-14, and Psalm 122.

Our thoughtful guests this week are:

  • The Rev. Dr. Leah D. Schade, associate professor of preaching and worship at Lexington Theological Seminary. An ordained Lutheran minister since 2000, Dr. Schade has written or edited seven books and is the EcoPreacher blogger for Patheos.com. Dr. Schade is the director of a Lilly Grant for the project, “Compelling Preaching for a Climate-Changed World,” in partnership with Lexington Theological Seminary, The BTS Center, and Climate Justice Ministries.
  • The Courageous Chris Clark, who makes his home on the unceded and ancestral lands of the Musqueam people (Vancouver, British Columbia) where he's a final-year M.Div. student at Vancouver School of Theology. Chris is a fantasy nerd, a church geek, and a neuro-spicy creative who loves classical ethnocultural music, stand-up comedy, musicals, opera, board games, animals (all animals), and belly laughs. 
  • The Rev. Dr. Tommie Lee Watkins, Jr., assistant professor at the University of Alabama Department of Social Work.  Tommie also provides spiritual direction and is a licensed multi-engine rated commercial pilot. He has several research articles and publications on religiosity, spirituality, sexuality, and health, as well as a workbook, "God’s Gift: Sexuality and Spirituality," available at his website.

    Prophetic Voices is hosted by the Rev. Isaiah “Shaneequa” Brokenleg, The Episcopal Church’s interim officer for Indigenous Ministries.
