In this third episode of season 6 of Prophetic Voices: Preaching and Teaching Beloved Community, we speak with Episcopalians committed to the Beloved Community about the texts for Maundy Thursday. The texts covered in this episode are Exodus 12:1-4, (5-10), 11-14, and John 13:1-17, 31b-35.
Our guests this week are the following:
- The Rev. Dr. Hillary Raining, rector of St. Christopher’s Church in Gladwyne, Penn., and creator of The Hive online spirituality and wellness digital community. Additionally, Hillary is a beekeeper, yoga and meditation instructor, and a forest therapist.
- The Rev. Dr. Erin Kirby, rector of St. John’s Episcopal Church, Marion, in the Diocese of Western North Carolina. She is a Sacred Ground facilitator and is committed to social justice, racial reconciliation, and seeing the Sacred in all of Creation.
- The Rev. Christopher McNabb, an Episcopal priest living in Seattle, Wash. He’s passionate about ministry with first responders, especially EMS, as well as the rights and the needs of immigrant communities. When not working, he’s out exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest with his dog, Lucky.
Prophetic Voices is hosted by the Rev. Isaiah “Shaneequa” Brokenleg, The Episcopal Church’s staff officer for Racial Reconciliation. For more information on Becoming Beloved Community, visit iam.ec/becomingbelovedcommunity.
Prophetic Voices: Preaching and Teaching Beloved Community
Across our church and our society, we are having profound dialogues about race, truth, justice, and healing. Coming this Advent, 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 readings for each week of Advent and Christmas Day 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.

Church of the Redeemer
Welcome to Church of the Redeemer: Worshiping God, living in community, and reaching out to the world. We are an Episcopal Church serving north King County and south Snohomish County, Washington. As you travel your road, go with friends walking the way of Jesus at Redeemer.
Church of the Redeemer is at 6220 Northeast 181st Street in Kenmore, Washington. We are a short distance north of Bothell Way, near the Burke-Gilman Trail. The entrance looks like a gravel driveway. The campus is larger on the inside than it is on the outside. And we managed to hide a large building on the side of a hill that is not easily seen from the street.
The Episcopal Church welcomes you.
