About the Author

For more than thirty years, Scott Wilson grew Oaks Church into a thriving local ministry with high global impact. Under his leadership, the Oaks has served thousands of families in the South Dallas area and has raised up and sent out hundreds of successful leaders, both nationally and internationally. Having seen the valuable impact of providing a spiritual covering to many church leaders, Scott founded The 415 Leadership to raise up spiritual fathers and mothers with a vision that every pastor should have spiritual parents. He also founded Ready Set Grow, a ministry to help churches break through their growth barriers by sharing his own experience and best-in-class partners. Scott has written many books and is a sought-after speaker on personal, spiritual, and organizational growth and leadership. Scott and his wife, Jenni, have been married since 1990 and have three sons and two daughters-in-law: Dillon and Holly, Hunter and Emily, and Dakota. Their first grandson, Teddy, was born in July 2021.
