Christ Before Me: The Courage to Return


Listen Later

On this episode of That Kevin Show, Kevin McCullough explores the life of Saint Patrick, delving into his remarkable story of faith and perseverance. From being stolen from his home at 16 to becoming a powerful symbol of Irish heritage, Saint Patrick's journey is a testament to the transformative power of dependence on Christ.

Kevin discusses how Saint Patrick's experiences in slavery and his unwavering faith led him to return to his captors, preaching the Gospel and changing the course of Irish history.

This conversation highlights the importance of obedience, and the impact one person can have on a nation. 

Excerpt from Townhall.com

There are stories that entertain… and then there are stories that confront you.

The life of Saint Patrick does not belong in the shallow end of cultural celebration—green beer, plastic hats, and parades that forget the point. His life is something far more unsettling.

Because Patrick didn’t just survive evil, he went back to it.

At 16, he was stolen from his home—ripped from his family, dragged across the sea, and forced into slavery in a land that was not his own. Ireland was not then the land of saints and scholars. It was wild, tribal, dangerous. He spent years alone, cold, hungry, and forgotten, tending sheep on hills that did not care if he lived or died.

And yet… it was there that something happened. Not comfort. Not rescue. Faith.

In his own words, Patrick writes that he began to pray constantly—dozens, even hundreds of times a day. Not because he was religious, but because he was desperate. And in that desperation, he discovered something that many of us, with all our conveniences and comforts, rarely ever grasp: Dependence. Not on strength. Not on strategy. Not on self. On Christ.

Years later, he would pen what has become one of the most enduring declarations of Christian devotion: “Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ on my right, Christ on my left…”

This was not poetry for Instagram. This was survival language.
