THE BARDCAST - Sarah de Nordwall - 15. Beauty: the Enemy of Chaos Radio Maria England

    • Christianity

In this episode of the Bardcast Sarah traverses the territory of how we uncover the real and survive immense disasters, from the experience or Takashi Nagai in Nagasaki to the moments of our own lives when the transcendent becomes viscerally present to us. A poem from Valerie Anthony Marie captures the intimacy of God's presence in the tenderness of familial relationship, whilst Sarah's poems look at how beauty is the enemy of chaos and childhood memories evoke the existence of eternal happiness. Be encouraged to learn beautiful poems off by heart and write from your experience of moments of revelation in a narrative style that is all your own. 


THE BARDCAST airs live and can be listened to on www.RadioMariaEngland.uk or digital radio in London, Bristol, South Birmingham and Cambridge at 3:15pm after the Divine Mercy Chaplet on Sundays and 8pm on Fridays. Each week Sarah de Nordwall reflects on poems that have been sent in, shares a poem of her own, leaves us with a theme and a writing prompt and sends us off to write something ourselves.
