From Slave to Missionary: The Remarkable Story of Patrick of Ireland
Long before shamrocks and legends, Patrick was a rebellious teenager who wanted nothing to do with God. Born into a wealthy Christian family in Roman Britain, his life changed forever when Irish raiders kidnapped him and sold him into slavery. Alone on a windswept hillside, tending sheep in a foreign land, Patrick discovered the God he had spent years ignoring.
Who Was Patrick? introduces young readers to the true story of one of history’s most influential Christians. Through hardship, prayer, and unwavering faith, Patrick was transformed from a frightened slave into a courageous missionary who returned to Ireland to share the gospel with the very people who had enslaved him.
Filled with engaging narrative, historical detail, and biblical truth, this inspiring biography helps children see how God can use even the darkest circumstances for his glory and our good.
