St. Patrick’s Day 2025, and Q&A
On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (03/17/25), Hank shares his thoughts on St. Patrick’s Day. Saint Patrick was born a Brit in the fifth century, but when he was 16, he was captured by Irish pirates and taken to Ireland as a slave. After escaping, he later returned as a missionary. Although all analogies for the Trinity ultimately break down, Saint Patrick supposedly explained this doctrine using a shamrock.

Certainly, many came to faith in Christ through his ministry.Hank also answers the following questions:Were the Babylonian creation myths written before the Bible, or were they taken from the Bible and altered?
