THOUGH HE FALL: My Journey Through Surrender, Loss, and a Thousand Healings

“WHATEVER IT TAKES, LORD.”

ON OCTOBER 2, 1981, a young college student, Scott Mitchell, fell from a cliff, resulting in complete paralysis below his chest. The tragedy occurred when he was in a spiritually desperate place and yearned for God to intervene in his life, whatever the cost. His story of hardship and trial by fire did not end with his falling accident, but has followed him throughout the years, culminating in one of the worst heartbreaks of his life.

LIFE IS HARD, BUT GOD IS GOOD

Having experienced some of the worst things life can throw at a person, Scott has discovered that God can be trusted to do his most loving work in the worst of circumstances. As he shares his story in these pages, his prayer is that you will begin to hope again in a God who is with you in the fire, and trust Him to bring something beautiful from the ashes.



SCOTT MITCHELL is a preacher, teacher, writer, mentor, and birdwatcher. He finds his greatest joy in sharing his gift of encouragement, especially with those who hurt. He’s been married to Sandy, the love of his life and best person he’s ever known, for forty years. They presently make their home in Clearwater, Florida.
