His father was a wounded Vietnam War hero that struggled with flashbacks and PTSD upon his return. He abused Scott's mom, others, and eventually killed a man. After several prison sentences, failed marriages, and substance abuse, he gave his life to Christ. He is now an ordained minister, elder, and jail chaplain. Scott's mom experienced the pain of failed relationships, broken dreams, and trauma. In response to her pain, she chose a healthy lifestyle by honoring God. She remarried and now mentors other women. With a deep level of transparency, Scott invites readers into his life. He describes the challenge of growing up with abuse, addiction, and abandonment issues. His story is one of tragedy and hope. He's been married for eleven years with two daughters. His family has reconciled and is committed to helping others. Real hope is found in Jesus Christ, The Forgiveness Factor.
