Dedication
This book is dedicated to my son Chas who continues to stand and live by the faith and grace of Jesus Christ. Chas is an inspiration to whoever hears his story. He has overcome pulmonary atresia from birth, seizures during high school, and most recently Hodgkins Lymphoma during his college years. While writing this book I watched him fight the good fight of faith, overcoming this horrible disease, which caused me to be inspired to write this book through one of the hardest struggles in my life. The strength behind this book was birthed through my sons ability to never give up and to stand when I know he felt like falling. Through his strong faith and determination, he is living proof of Gods faithfulness.
He is stronger and healthier now than he has ever been in his entire life. I praise God for my son and look forward to seeing him step into his calling with great expectation. We will bless and support him as he continues to be an inspiration to encourage those who are facing life-threatening challenges. If Chas can do it, so can you! His courage and determination were the conformation I needed in order to have the confidence to step out into reaching the entire world with this message. Chas, you are and will always be my best buddy!
I love you, son.
Acknowledgments
I want to thank my wife for standing with me in agreement as we go through lifes challenges. She has been such a blessing to me through this time of writing the book you hold in your hand. I commend and appreciate her and her efforts including the many hats she has had to wear in order to take pressure off of me so I could focus on writing this book. Aneesa, you are the love of my life!
I want to give a special thanks for my GTH family whose loving faith and support have been overwhelming. Only God could bring together such an amazing group of people. Its such an honor to be called their pastor. GTH, you are the best sheep in the world!
I certainly want to extend my gratitude to my nephew Dr. Mitch and the clinic staff who spend many days treating and taking care of my patients so I am able to dedicate the time necessary to bring this message to the world.
I cannot forget to thank Bobby, Travis, Barry, and Dwaine, my four lifelong best friends. What would I do without you guys in my life? Thanks for always being there for me.
I want to thank my TBN family for your continued support and especially Matt and Laurie Crouch. Matt, thank you for being the big brother I never had. Youve taught me so much about so much. Laurie, thank you and the boys for always treating me like family. You guys are the best.
Finally, I want to thank my family for always believing in me and especially my precious mother whom I have never had a cross word with throughout my entire adult life. She has always been my greatest supporter and biggest fan. Mom, I love you more than I will ever be able to express.

Dr. Scott has been taking care of our familys health needs for decades now.
My father had quite a collection of canes later in his life because of a knee injury he had years prior. Scott treated his knee over a single weekend while in Orlando and Dad never had to use a cane again! There was no use of drugs and no surgery. Years of suffering and pain were gone for the rest of his life just by helping to restore the proper function to his knee. So, Scott has our attention when he talks health.
Laurie and I were at lunch with Scott recently, riveted as he unpacked the miraculoussome might say the medically impossiblesupernatural healing of his son Chas, who had been suffering life-threatening Hodgkins Lymphoma.
Its a powerful, real-life testimony that could have ended very differently. I can only imagine what it would be like to have a life-threatening disease assigned to your only child. Scott briefly shared with us how overwhelming that threat can be, especially when you try to handle it from a day-to-day, lets just try and get through this mentality.
As we were wrapping lunch together, Laurie leaned in and asked what turned out to be a life-altering question, Scott, what was it that you feel you learned the most from this experience?
He didnt need to think about the question very long; Laurie, God taught me something. Ive learned that faith doesnt speak to the present, it speaks to your future, and your future speaks to your present.
After I about spit my ice tea across the table, I wanted to make sure Id heard him right and asked him to repeat his answer: Faith doesnt speak to the present, it speaks to your future, and your future speaks to your present, he said a second time, but this time with even more conviction.
Scott continued, I was believing for my son to be healed, but that was having hope and not living by faith. Thats when the revelation came to me that his healing was in the futureand thats where I needed to go, to the finished work of Christ. And that reality needed to speak to my present situation.
That was the catalyst that enabled me to get over my fear and frustration. Faith was speaking to our future and our future spoke to our present, and the future we saw is now a reality. My beloved son is completely free from cancer!
If there ever were one, this became one of lifes Aha Moments for Laurie and me!
