A Cause Worth Living For (Paperback) by David Hamilton

Born into an ordinary protestant family in Belfast during the 1950s, David Hamilton's formative years were lived out against the backdrop of the Troubles. Inevitably, David's life was shaped by the violence that surrounded him. He became involved with a terrorist organisation, ending up with a hefty prison sentence. David believed that in fighting with the Ulster Volunteer Force he had found a cause worth dying for but, while in prison, David had an encounter that would change the whole course of his life. This is the dramatic story of how David's life has been completely transformed. He is no longer on that slippery, destructive and violent slope but has found new life and a new cause that's really worth living for.

Since prison, David Hamilton has worked for Prison Fellowship (5 years) and then directed the work of Teen Challenge in N. Ireland(2 Years). He was asked to become the national Evangelist for Teen Challenge in the UK and moved to Wales to set up the Teen Challenge School of Evangelism. While living there he was ordained as an Evangelist with the Apostolic Church in Great Britain. He next spent ten years of extensive travel around Europe as an international evangelist with Eurasia Teen Challenge before settling in Manchester in 1998. He founded a charity, “Life Challenge” and opened a drug rehabilitation centre, dealing with teens and young adults addressing their life–controlling problems. Through this ministry many young men and women have been successfully delivered from drugs and alcohol addiction. In 2004, he took up a full–time pastorate at a church in Stockport, Manchester. Since retiring from the pastorate (2014), he continues to have an itinerant ministry across the U.K.
