In this second episode of season 5 of Prophetic Voices: Preaching and Teaching Beloved Community, we speak with Episcopalians committed to the Beloved Community about the texts for Advent 2. The texts covered in this episode are Isaiah 11:1-10, Psalm 72:1-7, 18-19, and Matthew 3:1-12. Our guests this week are: 

• The Rev. Jazzy Bostock, a kanaka maoli woman serving St. John the Baptist and Maluhia Lutheran Church in Waianae, Hawaii. She and her wife have a small homestead, consisting of raised garden beds, a flock of hens, a hive of bees, a dog, and a cat. They are foster parents, currently awaiting their next placement. 
• The Rev. Phil Hooper, SMMS, curate at Trinity Episcopal Church, Fort Wayne, in the Diocese of Northern Indiana. Phil has interests in writing and exploring contemplative spirituality.
