This, my friends is what a real man looks like. I can’t begin to imagine him facing all that was done to him, going back to the place he was attacked, and sharing this with the world. Your courage, determination, forgiveness and beautiful heart has the power to change the world, Scott. I’ll never be the same after seeing this, and hearing how you had the courage to turn such a horrible hate crime into growth and love. I have absolutely no doubt there is a man out there just waiting to be touched by your heart. Thank you so very much for sharing your heart with us. ❤️

I hope that the standing is a sign that he will continue to regain his mobility but his attacker comparing paralysis to a ten year incarceration makes me even angrier .. He is a treasure to his community and has born his trauma with a quiet strength and integrity that is very inspiring ! I also loved listening to the quire under his tutelage . It is a thing of beauty as is he !

That is so horrible. Wishing him all the best in his life, no one deserves this. I am interested to watch the full doc. This reminds me of a foreign film I watched a while ago, I want to say it was Dutch. It was about a guy who was senselessly attacked and he became paralyzed and the whole movie was him trying to deal with it. He eventually killed himself but I think the point of the sad ending is to drive home how one terrible night can ruin a person's whole world. So devastating

REPENT and be baptized in the name of JESUS CHRIST. John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes shall not perish but have everlasting life" John 3:17 "For God did not send his son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved" Matthew 9:13 "I desire mercy and not sacrifice. For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance" 1 Corrinthians 6:9-10 "Do you not know that the unrighteous will NOT inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither Fornicators, Nor Idolters, Nor Adulterers, Nor Homosexuals, Nor Sodomites, Nor Thieves, Nor Covetous, Nor Drunkards, Nor Revilers, Nor Extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God. John 3:3 "Most assuredly I say to you, unless one us born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God. John 3:5 "Most assuredly I say to you unless one is born of water and the spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. Mark 16:16 "He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned" Levitucus 19:2 "You shall be holy, for I the Lord your God am holy" Revelation 20:6 "Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection" Revelation 22:12 "And behold I am coming quickly, and my reward is with me, to give to everyone according to his work. I am the Alpha and the Omega, The beginning and the End, the First and the Last. Just saying you repent is not enough. You MUST stop sinning and change the way you live. Be Holy. Live for God and not this world. Get to know Jesus Christ who is God Almighty have a relationship with him. He died for you and wiped away your sins. He saved you from death and he'll, you need to accept him, change your evil, sinful, wicked ways.. believe in him and what he did for you to be free from the coming destruction of this world and wicked people. Get a bible and read his word to learn more about him. Seek him while he might still be found" I would start with {Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Colossians, Corrinthians} Then {Genesis, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Revelation} Titus 2:13 "Looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from every lawless deed and purity for himself his own special people, zealous for good works. Psalm 100:3 "Know that the Lord, he is God. It is he who has made us and not we ourselves" Seek God before it's too late. This world is coming to an end, look around and see that things are getting worse and worse. REPENT and be Baptized. Give your life to Jesus Christ, Prepare yourself for his coming. If you do not want to be saved it's your choice but when he comes back for his saints, it will be too late for anyone that denied and rejected him. REPENT and be Baptized in the name of Jesus Christ who is The Lord God Almighty. Shalom!
