Recently we celebrated St. Patrick’s Day. Other than the need to wear green so we don’t get pinched, and a familiarity with the legend of him driving out the snakes in Ireland, I’m not sure most of us could really explain why we celebrate this day and this man. I myself honestly couldn’t until quite recently. I assure you his life is worth remembering (and honoring) — for he lived in the spirit of the One who stayed up on a cross for us.
