The Real St. Patrick

Posted on by


St. Patrick… The Man, The Slave, The Saint, The Rebel, The Myth, The Legend and The Message, Join myself Brian Davis as I interviews Shane Angland (THM). Shane has a Masters in Historical Theology and is passionate about the ‘The Real St. Patrick’, so passionate is Shane that I managed to keep him at the studios to record the 3 part series where he masterfully separates fact from fiction, gives us an historical representation of Ireland pre-Christianity and describes to us the heart of ‘The Real St. Patrick’ and how the Irish responded to the message he came back to share, So don’t worry if all the Paddy’s Day parades have been cancelled, sure now you can listen and learn about the ‘The Real St. Patrick..
ENJOY and HAPPY St. PATRICKS DAY….
