Scott Crouch
CHILDREN'S PASTOR
Scott's passion for children and their lives began shortly after the birth and adoption of his oldest son, Phillip. It was then, the Lord allowed him to see the different melds of family it takes for a child to live in today’s world and many of them without salvation and the hope of eternal life through Jesus Christ. It is Scott's desire to see the children not only accept Christ as their savior, but also for them to have a solid base and deep roots in the Lord to rely on as teenagers and adults to carry them through life.
Scott has served in many children's ministry roles. From teaching Sunday School to Chairman of Board of an After School / Summer Program before becoming on staff at Northside in January 2011.
Scott is married to his wife of 26 years, Kelly, and they have two boys, Phillip and Sam. They live on an 8 acre farm in Chester.
