Alistair Wheatley

In this podcast we delve into the remarkable journey of a man whose life has been shaped by adversity, conflict, and ultimately, redemption. Today, I have the privilege of speaking with someone whose early years in Belfast, Northern Ireland, were marred by the violent sectarian strife between Protestants and Catholics. Raised amidst this turmoil, he found himself drawn into the path of political terrorism with the Ulster Volunteer Force, leading to a spiral of destructive choices and prolonged incarcerations. However, amidst the darkness an 80 year old ladies' prayers would be heard by the Lord, and a transformative encounter with faith and forgiveness altered the course of his life forever. David's story unfolds as one of redemption, hope, and unwavering dedication to spreading the message of God's saving grace. David's story is living proof that there's no such thing as a hopeless case.
