He is a teaching preacher, presenting the Word of God in a clear and practical way that allows all people to understand the Gospel and apply it to their everyday lives. His passion lies in revealing the truth of Scripture—understanding the context of biblical times and connecting it to modern-day life—so that believers can grow in wisdom, faith, and obedience.
						
						
						A proud graduate of Dublin High School, Class of 1995, Minister Scott is also a Marine Corps veteran who honorably served his country from October 1995 to October 1999.

						What Drives His Ministry
						
						Minister Scott's ministry is driven by a deep love for God and a sincere desire to see lives transformed through the power of His Word. He is motivated by the call to serve others with compassion, to lead by example, and to faithfully proclaim the truth of the Gospel. Every message he shares, every act of service he performs, and every prayer he lifts is rooted in his conviction that Jesus Christ is the answer to every problem we face in life. His passion is to help others experience the same grace, forgiveness, and purpose that he has found in Christ.
						
						
						His Legacy
						
						The legacy Minister Scott hopes to leave is one of faithfulness—that he served God and His people with integrity, humility, and love. He desires to be remembered as a servant who pointed others to Christ, encouraged believers to walk closer with Him, and helped build a stronger, united church family. If, through his ministry, souls are saved, hearts are strengthened, and lives are changed for God’s glory, then his labor in the Lord will not have been in vain.
						
						
						Current Ministry Goals
						
						Minister Scott's current ministry focus is sharing the Gospel with the lost and giving hope to the hopeless. He is committed to reaching those who feel forgotten, guiding them toward the saving power of Jesus Christ, and reminding them that no one is beyond His reach. Whether through preaching, teaching, or community outreach, his goal is to shine the light of Christ wherever there is darkness and to be a vessel of hope in a hurting world.
