Episode Description

In this special episode of To Give Him Glory, we take a look at the incredible story behind Saint Patrick, the man whose life of obedience to God forever changed Ireland. Most people associate Saint Patrick’s Day with shamrocks, green clothes, and Irish celebrations. But behind the holiday is the powerful testimony of a man who went from captivity to calling. Kidnapped as a teenager and enslaved in Ireland, Patrick encountered God in the midst of loneliness and hardship. Years later, after finally escaping and returning home, God called him back to the very land where he had once been a slave, but this time as a missionary. His simple “yes” to God sparked a ripple effect that would spread the Gospel throughout Ireland and beyond. In this episode we’re going to explore, the real history behind St. Patrick, How God used one ordinary man to change a nation, and what Patrick’s story teaches us about obedience, humility, and faith. What could happen if we gave God glory if we responded to Him with the same courageous yes?
