My Sandy, improving the coastline scenery of Scotland last year.
For my 21st podcast I’ve invited the love of my life, my bride, Sandy, to join me and share why she’s been my “Faithful Companion in the Fire” for over 3 decades.
If finding a wife is “a good thing” (Prov 18:22) I’ve easily scored an amazing thing.
Proverbs 31:29
Many women have done excellently, but you surpass them all.”
Quite.
I think, after listening, you’ll understand why I run out of superlatives when I speak of her. What a gift!
For nearly three decades, Scott ministered in churches, at youth events, to professional athletes, and was a frequent speaker at disability camps. He served another seventeen years as the senior pastor of a local church in Douglasville, Georgia.
•••••
Scott has a unique ministry to those who are hurting since his own disability allows him access to a suffering world. He ministers these days through his blog, teaches and preaches occasionally, and is still very much engaged in discipling younger men and encouraging pastors.
•••••
Married to Sandy, his loving companion of forty years, Scott continues to brag about how she hung his moon and is the best person he’s ever known. They have a son, Graham, who waits for them in heaven.

Scott and Sandy presently make their home in Clearwater, Florida. View all posts by Pasturescott

Sandy, Thank you for sharing your heart with us. I would love to hear more of your story of what God has taught you through these years. You said that you grieve as a mom while Scott grieves as a dad. Would you and Scott be willing to share these differences sometime in a future podcast? I know that this difference can cause hardships in a marriage. Thank you for being Scott’s partner in the fire. God bless you both.
That is a wonderful idea, Joyce. I’ve passed along your comments to Sandy and she agrees so we’re adding that to a short list of future topics. Bless you, friend! Thank you for listening in!
I passed along your kind words to Sandy, Deanna and she was visibly moved. Bless you for connecting with us here and on IG! If ever we get Down Under we expect a tour! 😊
Our sweet Amy, you are such a blessing! Thank you for listening; I couldn’t agree more! Can’t wait for our next one together! Give hugs and love to the fam!
