Description

Born in Sunderland, England, in 1960, Sapper Alan James (#871) joined the British Army in 1978 and served for 12 years in the Corps of Royal Engineers before joining the police force in 1990. He recounts his time serving as a patrol officer during The Troubles (also known as the Northern Ireland Conflict), openly sharing about his battle with PTSD and how he became a born-again follower of Christ in his mid-fifties. Still living in the UK, this army veteran is a faithful member of New Life Church in Billingham, where he testifies to having found his place building God’s Kingdom through the structure, accountability, and support of his local church.
