Second Sunday of Advent (Sermon Only) – December 4, 2022

The Very Reverend Patrick Malloy, Dean of the Cathedral, reflects on the day's Gospel passage in his sermon for the Cathedral's December 4 Holy Eucharist service. In Matthew 3:1-12, John the Baptist confronts the religious leaders of his day, comparing them to a "brood of vipers." In today's politically fractured world, as we reckon with a resurgence of antisemitism in the United States and worldwide, what conclusions do we draw from these words, and can they set us on a path to righteousness and reconciliation?
