David  and Elizabeth Halliburton

​

As a pastor, husband and father, David lived in secrecy. Ten years of childhood abuse precipitated a battle with a concealed pornography addiction that lasted for 29 years. Out of God's mercy, his secret was exposed, thus leading him to a place of total surrender at the Cross.

​

Through the love and support of four Christian brothers and a faithful wife, David began the course toward recovery and journey of healing. He found he could be completely vulnerable with the deepest and scariest secrets of life, which were rooted in post-traumatic stress from years of childhood sexual abuse. David and Elizabeth's journey of redemption in the face of marital pain and betrayal gives them courage and authority for their ministry calling. 

​

"Elizabeth had a dream to create a safe place for others who like she and David need the love and support of their church community to walk a day by day healing path. Together, they are committed to offer this kind of place through Living Waters; a safe place for transformational healing and wholeness."

 

David Halliburton is on the Desert Stream National Council, supporting Living Waters group coordinators in churches across Montana, Washington, Idaho, and Oregon. Living Waters 20-week experiential discipleship ministry provides the basis for a lifetime process of healing. 

 

David equips other church leaders and pastors to launch Living Waters programs in their own communities, promote regional gatherings and encourage participation at national training conferences. Living Waters has a proven 40 year reputation with cross-cultural relevance and is present on every continent.
