This new record features friends and family who have played with him over the years including: Joel Williams, Jared Jost, Josh Lyon, Dave Muir, Lisa Gayle-Pryce, Debbie Braham and Jessa Blackburn. The record took almost 4 years to record and covers a very powerful time in Scott's life where he has decided to no longer charge for his music and is now giving it all away, including this new record, for free download. He is following God's call which is what the late Keith Green did and hopes that you will be blessed by his music!

With his wife Sherri and daughters Cheyenne and Jessa by his side he is a devout follower of Christ and works hard to shine his light for the Kingdom.
