Since his only child left home for college, Scott has spent quiet mornings texting him one wise thought. Scattering Brilliance is that collection — 365 inspiring, life-changing, biblically sound quotes to text, email, gift, or keep for a year of your own growth.
One quote a morning to someone who needs it — a child away from home, a friend having a hard week, a colleague you're thinking of.
A year of wisdom in one book. Graduations, weddings, new jobs, hard seasons — the kind of gift that gets used rather than shelved.
365 quotes drawn from nine years of ghostwriting and homeschooling. Read one a day and take a year of your own growth from it.
Each quote comes with who said it and why it matters — and, here and there, the note Scott wrote when he sent it.




"Everyone who belongs to Christ belongs to everyone who belongs to Christ."
— E. Stanley Jones, missionary and theologian · quote one
This was the first wisdom text Scott sent his son Aidan, for his first day of college on August 20, 2025.
"Change a life. Send wisdom. Bless others."
— Scattering Brilliance
As a best-selling ghostwriter of twenty books and the former acquisitions director for a publishing company, Scott loves writing — even though English class was among his least favorite subjects in school.
During two decades of marriage to his brilliant, beautiful wife Deb, Scott and friends built a couple of companies and sold them in 2017. By then he was homeschooling his son and had decided to devote the rest of his days to helping and repaying God for a joyful life.
Love God with all your heart, soul, and mind, while also focusing on helping and loving others.
One of the twenty books Scott has ghostwritten and edited is Wisdom in a Year, Pastor Billy Crone's 365-day devotional — one question and one answer every day, biblical wisdom applied to the life you're actually living.
Occasional notes from Scott — new releases, free chapters, nothing more.
