     Scott F. Marsh is the youngest of three sons of C. Edward and Linda Marsh, of New Cumberland, WV.  He graduated high school from Cuyahoga Valley Christian Academy in Cuyahoga Falls, OH in 1982, then graduated summa cum laude from St. Paul (MN) Bible College in 1986 with a bachelor's degree in Bible and Theology.  He later earned an M.A. degree at Antietam Biblical Seminary in Hagerstown, MD, also in Bible and Theology.

     Scott founded the New Hope Alliance Church in Winchester, VA, in 1987, before moving to Central Illinois in 1989, where he served as pastor of Cresthaven Alliance Church.     

     Scott accepted the call to minister at Texas Christian Church in Clinton, IL, in 2001.  Shortly thereafter, he founded the Biblical Institute for Laymen--a program that teaches Bible college courses free of charge, designed for the layman as opposed to the professional student.  Work is being done to make the material of the classes available on line.  Written and audio versions of the Sunday sermons at Texas Christian Church are presently available free of charge at the church's web site (see links at left).

     Scott is the author of six published books: Down Ross Road, a historical novel about his mother's ancestors; Armed and Ready, a joint exposition of Joshua and Ephesians; Building God's House, an exposition of Haggai; The Grand Finale of Human History, a brief commentary on Revelation; and The Subtle Sides of Pride, and Fact and Fiction on Forgiveness.  Click here to purchase books in print or electronic format (dependent upon availability).

Scott and Tammy have been married for 17 years.  They live with their tiny toy red poodles, Rusty Ross Marsh and Ruby Rose Marsh, in Kenney.  Scott also works full-time at Prairie Farms Ice Cream in Decatur.
