How They Met
The couple met in Evanston, Illinois where they were both graduate students at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary. Scott had been commuting to Wisconsin for an internship and he decided it was too much. Garrett-Evangelical placed him locally. It was on January 25, one week later that Scott and Carrie met. They were engaged by October and married the following August.
