Son of a missionary, born in the Congo, Billy endured a strict
upbringing before escaping to the Army at 16. Despite the brutality
and bullying he survived and did well, being fast-tracked for a
commission. He met and married Bev, herself a corporal. Billy soon
quit the Army to become a bodyguard to the stars, working with
Naomi Campbell, Take That, Bee Gees, Arnold Schwarzeneggar, Mel
Gibson and others. Billy had always been a drinker but now the
celebrity lifestyle introduced him to drugs - dealing, and running
with gangsters. He lost his job. Bev and the children suffered as a
consequence, and Bev ultimately divorced him. Billy contemplated
suicide when a friend reintroduced him to the God he had hated for
30 years. Bev too discovered Christianity: the two would be
reconciled, remarry, and have two more children. Now a Baptist
pastor, prison chaplain and evangelist, Billy sees in others the
miracle that has taken place in himself.
