Scott came to DPC in 2022 after pastoring 16 years in Louisville, Mississippi. He considers his strengths for ministry to be counseling, teaching, and encouraging. He's optimistic about what the gospel, thoughtfully lived-out and believed, can do to sinners. He likes patient, Bible-and-prayer ministry, loving people, and engaging the culture with the gospel. He thinks that a humble expression of the gospel in covenant community, working together in ministry, can impact the whole community for eternity.
