Pastor Scott Adams has led the church since pastor Donnie’s passing in 1997 Pastor Scott Adams, of The Living Word Ministries, was saved and filled
with the Holy Spirit on December 4, 1994. Having grown up in church but
ignorant to the plan and promises of God, Pastor Adams believed there
had to be something more than he had experienced. He was introduced
to a deeper life in Christ by his pastor/m
entor the late Pastor Donnie
Erwin. Since that time, he has been on a quest to know God more
intimately and to teach the Body of Christ who they are and what is
available to them in Christ. The
theme of his ministry is Hebrews 4:12, The Word is Alive! The goal of The
Living Word is to ‘Empower you through the Word of God”. Pastor Adams was ordained in 1998 by his Pastor and friend Pastor James
Redfearn, Jr. Later he received an Associate’s degree in Christian Ministry
from More than Conquerors College where he graduated Salutatorian of
the 2004 class. Pastor Adams says his most notable achievement was convincing the love
of his life, Lani to marry him. They have been married since 1991 and
they have two awesome sons, Seth and Brendan. Both of these young men
serve with their father and mother in the ministry. Having humble beginnings, The Living Word began in a house in November
of 1995, but in 2013, God made available a 22,000 square foot building
and 11 acres of land on a main highway in Chesterfield, SC, and to the
glory of God, it was paid off in 2015. The Lord has opened many doors for Pastor Adams to preach the Word of
God in local churches, men’s fellowships, television, and on mission trips
to Dominican Republic. He is grateful for any and all opportunities to
share the Word of God that has so changed his life.
