On the Shalom Talk broadcast this Sunday, March 20, get a historical perspective on the real St. Patrick, a spiritual and why he should be a hero to all people of faith. Our guest is Roger Nelson, a Staley Distinguished Christian Scholar, whose presentations have enriched over 1,600 audiences in 32 countries.
