Scott's wife Angela recently transitioned from full-time worship ministry to teaching Ethics and Philosophy at Hutchinson Community College. They live in Haven, Kansas and are proud parents of four wonderful young adults with two bonus daughters in the mix. When they're not teaching or making music, chances are that coffee, cupcakes, or macarons are on the agenda. |
