Lexington Interfaith Encounter – “The Sultan and the “Saint”

We welcomed the Lexington Interfaith Encounter to the studio today to talk about an exciting docudrama that’s coming out called “The Sultan and the Saint. During the Crusades, Saint Francis of Assisi risked his life by walking across enemy lines to meet the Sultan of Egypt, the Muslim ruler Al-Malik Al-Kamil. This remarkable encounter, and the commitment to peace of the two men behind it, sucked the venom out of the Crusades and changed the relationship between Muslims and Christians for the better.

“The Sultan and the Saint” will premiere TONIGHT at 7:00pm at The Kentucky Theater.
