Can you find them in this photo with some of their family? Life in South Asia (J) and in East Africa (S&J) previously helped them appreciate the challenges & delights of “crossing culture”. Long ago (!) Scott completed degrees from Taylor University (B.A.), Wheaton Graduate School (M.A.) and Trinity Theological Seminary (D.Min.) – but he is a life-long learner!
