a church they helped plant as newly weds in 1995 and have pastored for 28 years since. Ron has a passion for the
study and expositional teaching of the Word of God, which he has taught virtually from cover to cover during his

He came to faith through a 4-Spiritual Laws in 1978 and became a Watchman in 2016 after hearing about Bible Prophecy for the first time. He holds a BA from Michigan State and MBA from Indiana University.
Today, Scott works on "Advanced Gospel Initiatives" via highly technical strategies. He is the founder of I Am A Watchman, co-developer of the Rapture Kit resource, developer of the Rapture Kit on a Raspberry Pi, and spends most of his remaining time writing on iamawatchman.substack.com.

Known for his grounded real world experience in technology, he has a unique perspective that seeks to both educate and edify the Body of Christ for such a time as this. Widely interviewed by pastors for his subject matter expertise on AI and other technical matters, he brings a unique viewpoint that many appreciate.
