HOPE HOPE meet our speaker...
Alice Scott-Ferguson was born in the Shetland Islands of Scotland and immigrated to the USA with her husband and three children over thirty years ago. She holds a BS in Health Sciences and is a registered nurse specializing in mental health. Her passion to understand humankind in its relationship with God—and God with it—has led to a life-long search and study of His Word, and a life-long love of the living Word—Jesus Christ. Alice is a trained counselor, a passionate and popular speaker, and a writer whose ability to think outside the box provides thought-provoking and entertaining material from one who enjoys a wild love affair with words.
Alice is the author of three books. Little Women, Big God (Essence, 1999) which captures her years of ministry to women in Europe; Mothers Can’t Be Everywhere, But God Is (Cladach, 2002), a liberating look at the role of motherhood, and Reconcilable Differences (Cook, 2007) co-authored with Nancy Parker Brummett whose traditional/complementarian view of women’s roles are entirely opposite to Alice’s egalitarian/mutuality stance. The wonder and power of this collaboration is the love and respect with which they hold one another despite differing positions on this thorny topic. Alice has written innumerable articles and Bible studies, many of which she teaches in her local church.
She and her husband Jim currently live in Phoenix, AZ. The family of three little children, with whom they came to this country, have now expanded to include their spouses and six grandchildren.
