Who Was St. Patrick and the History Behind Saint Patrick's Day | Drive Thru History Special

[@andygatch1676]

Wonderful show. Great teaching. Hearing Jesus’s name spoken on a show is refreshing!

[@rowenaneely9545]

These series are truly enriching in both Scriptures and History!

[@bonniearmstrong6564]

Thank you for the prayers, we are in need of it now. Blessings

[@primesspct2]

Man has ALWAYS been in need of it. There is nothing new under the sun. Its the same fight, but we bring Jesus Christ with us now! I urge Christians not to despair, or to be intimidated. Greater is our strength to do His works now! Our children live in this age, it is our job to encourage them and not to live in fear!

[@lizlocher3612]

I watched this video twice in a row to celebrate St.Patrick's Day today n it is phenomenal!!! You did an amazing job, showing us the Ireland of St. Patrick's time as well as the present time with the Book of Kells, the cathedrals, Trinity College n all the ruins n islands where the monks preserved the Christian documents that JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD initiated and ordained the Apostles to continue to spread HIS HOLY WORD!!! The prayer at the end of the video topped it off fabulously!!! Mr. Story, you have given us a magnificent tribute to the REAL meaning of St. Patrick's Day. Thank you for posting. .🙏🍀💚🗝️🌟👍🕊️

[@debramcfarland9975]

I agree 100%.

[@JanBanJoovi-ol1qv]

St. Patrick’s day became a typical festivity (just like Christmas), wherein people use it as an excuse to party rather than internalising the reason why it’s celebrated.

[@22grena]

Because it has been highjacked by politicians and corporations. It is still a day for the Catholic Irish

[@kittykevan5052]

What a wonderful sojourn through beautiful parts of Ireland and so much history we need to remember! Thank you X🕊🙏🏼

[@williamsoltes1658]

Outstanding history lesson. The production values are very very high, the format was superb, and your storytelling was top-notch. This was an excellent video!

[@bethlfc44]

Shame it is not factually correct also!@

[@AHLUser]

I'm 60-ish and was born & raised a Roman Catholic and didn't know until now that Patrick was never ordained as a Saint by any Pope.!! What an amazing fact. Anyway, his miracle is not driving snakes away (no snakes on islands) or raising dead people back to life (quite impossible) but convincing the Irish that you're right and they're wrong, now that's a real miracle.!!

[@robertbagwell2113]

He was a saint by common acclamation!

[@Norah56s]

One St. Patrick's history that I ran across stated that when Patrick returned to Ireland to "convince" the people there to adopt Christianity, that he used tyranny and violence up to and including death, to bring those conversions about. What I learned about St. Patrick from that history made me not want to celebrate the holiday any longer. But how do we know what is factual and what isn't?

[@michaelhaywood8262]

No snakes on islands? Britain is an island and we have 3 species, one of which is venomous.

Yes Saint Patrick had great salvations in Ireland and we celebrate his victory over darkness in Ireland. He used shamrock ever since to explain the triune God Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Only one God and three person. . Only one shamrock and three leaves. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m32ac3x9o89niaM

[@mrs.g.9816]

Thank you for a great documentary! Loved the connection you made between St. Patrick and King David, who both started out as lowly shepherds. All the places you showed us were awesome. As I like history, and travel (at least watching travel videos!) and videos made by people of faith, I've just subscribed to your channel. BTW, I like and own Thomas Cahill's book, "How the Irish Saved Civilization". I recommend it to anyone who studies history.

[@Travelingthru]

Omgoodness How beautiful. This was truly Amazing to watch. I cried at the end. The Book of Kells...your prayer and just to know how God used St. Patrick. Thank you so much Dave and so glad you got to knock a bucket lost off too. Truly Amazing. GOD BLESS 🙏📖✝️🙋🏼‍♀️

I grew up near Slemish Mountain in the nearby village of Broughshane. Watching this has made me a bit homesick. You can indeed see Scotland from the top and if you turn around you can see Lough Neagh. It's a wonderful view on a clear summer day.

Thank you so much for this amazing journey, exploring the life of St. Patrick, the significance, and the history of Ireland. I went to watch this video only expecting to hear how St. Patrick drove snakes out of Ireland, which is what I had previously heard of him. But the real accounting of his life, his suffering, and his faith, is immeasurably profound and moving. And thank you for the prayer. God bless you. ❤

This is a beautiful documentary of St Patrick. So much more information about the accomplishments during his life. St Patrick was just an amazing man. Was amazing how he was able to being Christianity to the people of Ireland in a way that they could understand. A humble man walking with God and amble to accomplish many things during his life.

[@lorrainecc99]

He didn't bring Christianity to Ireland, he popularised it. It was already here but had less followers than Paganism.

[@kathrynjordan8782]

@@lorrainecc99 It was because of St Patrick's conversion of those pagans of Ireland that brought back Christianity to Scotland, Wales and England. You can thank him for that. He knew the Scriptures better than any learned priest or decon.

[@lorrainecc99]

@@kathrynjordan8782 Yes like I said, he popularised it. By using pagan symbols and traditions... whilst condemning said Pagans who weren't so eager to convert. Not sure why I should be thanking him honestly! Who knows how a modern Pagan Ireland would have looked? And if Patrick didn't spread Christianity some other forsaken missionary would have tried it. Still, Christianity really didn't do Ireland any favours!

Thank you Dave Scott for giving us an amazing account of Saint Patrick, as we celebrate St Patrick’s Day. I have been inspired and puffed up by the history with regards St Patrick’s life and Ministry here on Planet Earth in Ireland. I thank God that God chose me too to be a committed and dedicated Christian. I’m not ashamed to be associated with him after learning of what he achieved during his lifetime. May he rest in peace and rise in glory. The righteous shall live. I thank God that St Patrick did not die prematurely, before he finished his assignment from God, so I pray for us all Christians to continue to hold on and do what God called us for until our good old ages, just like Saint Patrick. God bless us all as we continue to serve Him in our godly given assignments.
