How We Started
In the Spring of 2010, God began speaking to Pastor Scott about a new season in his life.
At that time, he had been a full-time youth pastor for 15 years. God began telling Pastor
Scott to step out in faith and trust Him with his life.
In June of 2010, the Lord directed him and his wife, Patti, to leave the place where they both
were employed. So they obeyed God and walked away from their primary full-time staff positions,
and trusted God's faithfulness to provide.
The next several months were the most amazing months they had ever experienced.
God was indeed faithful; providing in every way just as He had promised. It was in
this season that God began to speak to them about starting Thrive Worship Center.
They responded with obedience and began the journey God was leading them on.
During this journey God encouraged Pastor Scott to trust in His ability to build the church and rest in His promise.
Through this process God was developing and preparing him for this new leadership opportunity.
After several months of prayer, preparation, and development in him; Thrive Worship Center
was launched on March 27th, 2011!
