His pastor Jeff Johnson encouraged him to begin pastoral studies at Calvary Chapel School of the Word, from there the Lord led him to continue studying full time at Calvary Chapel Bible College in Twin Peaks which is located in the San Bernardino Mountains of California.

Some of his duties there were Children’s Ministry Director, Facility Supervisor and Bible College Director. From there the Lord led Scott to Liberty, Missouri where he currently serves as Senior Pastor/Teacher and Bible Expositor. The emphasis within his ministry is a verse by verse study of the Word of God, giving its full counsel.

As a result, his studies are extremely interesting, informative, and spiritually challenging.
