“With God, all things are possible.”
It’s St. Patrick’s Day and cousins Beth and Patrick are thinking about helping their friend Jake build a leprechaun trap — until Whit suggests they take a trip in the Imagination Station to learn more about this special holiday.
They travel back to a time in Ireland where the druids are in control, forcing their belief in their gods and magic and curses on the people. After arriving, Beth and Patrick are sold into slavery to be used by the druids, but quickly escape with the help of new Christian Tristan and his adorable sidekick — Finn the squirrel.
The cousins help Tristan and his friend, the Bishop Patricius (known to us as St. Patrick), take on the druids and tell the Irish people about the one true God — one whom they don’t have to fear and who will offer them protection. They no longer need to fear the druids and their “magic.” As Tristan says, “You can find peace only when you believe in one true God.”
“Challenge on the Hill of Fire” is a great tale that teaches the historical story of St. Patrick and the Christian conversion of Ireland, but also spiritual lessons like “the light of Jesus is more powerful than (the druids’) magic.”
This is a tale from the Adventures in Odyssey series, featuring strong moral tales and exciting action. The “Imagination Station” series is appropriate for children ages 7 and older.
Five stars out of five.
