About Scott

Wisdom In All Things is a place where the pursuit of biblical wisdom meets practical living. My mission is to inspire and guide you on a journey towards a life marked by wisdom, integrity, and purpose. 

Born out of a deep passion to share the invaluable wisdom found in God’s Word, I recognized the need to bridge the gap between biblical wisdom and its practical application in everyday life.

Wisdom in ALL Things

If you think of this as being on a tour, then I’m on the tour with you. This is my attempt at being that person on the tour that asks those interesting, insightful questions.  I need to understand and apply what it is to be wise, and want to make it easier for whoever would like to join me. This ‘journey’ is about directly and fruitfully integrating wisdom into all areas of our lives: mind, body, and soul.

Getting life right

Wisdom In All Things is dedicated to inspiring you on a journey to discover the transformative power of biblical wisdom by aligning your life with the timeless truths found in Scripture. It is for those of us who’ve found themselves saying, “I just want to get life right.” Through nurturing spiritual growth and maturity, acquiring the tools to make effective, God-honoring decisions, and relying on Him to navigate life’s complexities with ethical and moral clarity, you will live a life marked by wisdom, purpose, and contentment.

Pursuing wisdom

Drawing insights from critical thinkers and notable theologians, pastors, and authors like J.I. Packer, D.A. Carson, John Piper, John MacArthur, and (so many) others, I strive to provide you with valuable resources that will foster a deep understanding of biblical wisdom and guide you in making choices that reflect these principles in a world in direct opposition to “God’s ways”:

  • Alignment with Scriptural Truth.  It is important to pursue biblical wisdom because it ensures alignment with the timeless truths found in the Bible. By seeking wisdom from Scripture, we can navigate life’s complexities in a manner consistent with God’s Word.
  • Spiritual Growth and Maturity.  Influential evangelical leaders emphasize that the pursuit of biblical wisdom leads to spiritual growth and maturity. When we actively engage with Scripture to gain wisdom, we deepen our understanding of God’s character and develop a stronger relationship with Him.
  • Effective Decision-Making.  Notable theologians stress the practical benefits of pursuing biblical wisdom for decision-making. Wisdom from God’s Word provides a solid foundation for making choices that honor Him and align with His purposes, resulting in a life of greater purpose and impact.
  • Ethical and Moral Guidance.  Respected professors like Wayne Grudem highlight how biblical wisdom offers essential ethical and moral guidance. As we engage with Scripture, we gain insight into how to navigate moral dilemmas and make choices that reflect biblical principles in a world filled with ethical challenges.
  • Personal and Relational Fulfillment.  Biblical wisdom contributes to personal and relational fulfillment. Pursuing wisdom helps us build healthier relationships, experience peace, and find purpose and contentment in our lives.

Where I’m Coming From

IMG_7160

I was still working in radio at the time. We were discussing the future of radio, content, and the web, when I was asked, ‘Are you a radio guy, or a web guy?’ I think that was what did it. In my mind I answered, ‘Neither. And, both. I’m a content guy.’  Soon after, I left radio and spent the better part of a year dreaming about what that response really meant for me and my future.

It seemed my past, and I believe my future, is about one word. One very important word.  Content.  Creating it, curating it, and making sure the right people find it–for this one purpose: “to creatively compel people to act.”  That quickly became my personal mission statement. Sure, by my being a marketer it can mean ‘buy this product,’ but I was aiming at something quite a bit higher.  It was less about how I would fill my work week, and more about how I could impact people’s lives; that I could use content to creatively move someone toward doing something they needed to do!

We really have no choice in the matter. We will impact people’s lives. So the question becomes, ‘how?’ I love everything about content. It’s where great things can happen.  So, with that revelation, a graduate degree from Moody Bible Institute, and nearly 20 years of campus, church, and radio ministry, it is my hope that this will compel you toward who you need to be–and that together, we can inspire one another to exercise wisdom in all things.

Fun Facts:

  1. I once was mistaken for a member of the Secret Service.  At the time, I worked with an aviation company as a safety trainer.  While we were working at an airport in California, we just happened to be located on the cargo side of the runway near where they were transporting Ronald Reagan’s horses.  It must have been my suit, 6’4″ frame, and dark sunglasses that were enough to fool people into taking pictures of me and a coworker.
  2. I survived 9 years in North Dakota.  Barely.  Okay, that’s a little dramatic.  But they don’t call it “life in the vast lane” for nothin’.  The only thing moving with any speed in that state are the tumbleweeds.  And, I actually chose to live there!  Can you believe that?!
  3. I’ve had at least 22 addresses, in 8 states.  What can I say, being in radio gets you around.
  4. I recommend going Paleo.  I won’t include the word ‘diet’, because I wouldn’t call it that.  It is a clean, very beneficial, way of eating that you could do (most of the time =) forever.
  5. Still a Minnesota Vikings fan.  Can’t help it… and I’ve checked–there isn’t a cure.  I’m MN homegrown, and that’s just the way it is.
  6. Golf is life. Okay, not really, but great highs and lows are experienced on a golf course. I wouldn’t be where I am today if I didn’t learn things like: throwing metal sticks can cause damage, rage never helps you play better, and how much accuracy and precision matter.
