RAYMOND NADER: First-hand Encounter with Mar Charbel | Sarde (after supper) Podcast #72

Описание: Ex-militant and nuclear engineer Raymond Nader claims to have been visited by Saint Charbel on his birthday, November 10, 1994. After this life-changing encounter, he was left with a 3rd degree burn in the shape of a hand on his left arm and a message.

In this Sarde, we spoke about the following:
-What exactly happened on the night he was visited by Saint Charbel
-How the church, the state and the media dealt with his experience
-The Vatican’s procedures in dealing with miracles and saints
The hypocritical stance of religious figures and politicians
-Why and how Saint Charbel has had an impact across the world (including Alaska)
-How it is possible to reconcile his past as a war veteran with his present as a man of God

Sarde (noun), [Sa-r-de]: A colloquial term used in the Middle East to describe the act of letting go & kicking off a stream of consciousness and a rambling narrative.
The Sarde (after dinner) Podcast is a free space based out of the heart of Beirut, Lebanon, where Médéa Azouri & Mouin Jaber discuss a wide range of topics (usually) held behind closed doors in an open and simple way with guests from all walks of life.
