00:00It's St. Patrick's Day!
00:07When we think of St. Patrick, we're thinking of a man with a bishop's hat on, dressed in green.
00:13He's kind of the embodiment of Ireland, and he becomes the essence of Irishness.
00:18You think there's a serious message behind St. Patrick?
00:20Not really, it's just like partying, having fun.
00:23That everybody's Irish on Paddy's Day.
00:26Who St. Patrick was is shrouded in a great deal of historical mystery.
00:31He's not Irish-born, he's a Romano-British saint.
00:35People like Patrick and his family became vulnerable.
00:38He's lost everything, right? Probably he saw his mother and father killed.
00:43His faith comes alive in captivity, and his faith matters to him more than anything else.
00:48He used to go out and pray a hundred times a day.
00:51It would have been very dangerous to think of escaping his captors.
00:54The next day, he ran away.
00:56There's a big island out there. It's full of pagans.
00:58It needs to be Christianized.
01:01The tradition is very strong that this is the first place where St. Patrick built a small church.
01:07Remember that Patrick was in danger every minute.
01:10He was imprisoned. He had his life threatened repeatedly.
01:14Patrick had to begin the process of peacemaking vulnerably.
01:19Though there is a lot devises, there's one name that still continues to unite us, and that's St. Patrick.
01:25The seeds that Patrick sowed into the soil of Ireland went deep, deeper than the ruins.
01:31He was taken captive and sold as a slave in the country for which he later became the Oracle.
01:38He was taken captive and sold as the Holy Ghost.
01:45This way that he was alive in the world.
01:47And the original thing that happened, is that the goal he had to do all.
01:51The goal is to marry, and the crushing is to rule and to rule.
01:53The goal is to rule for the main event.
01:55The goal is to rule for the main event.
01:57Which will be true for the main event.
