Dr. T. Scott Daniels was elected general superintendent in the Church of the Nazarene at the 30th General Assembly held in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA, in June 2023. At the time of his election, he was serving as senior pastor at Nampa College Church of the Nazarene in Nampa, Idaho.
Born in Detroit, Michigan, USA, Scott was ordained in 1992 by Dr. Raymond Hurn. After being an associate pastor in Washington, California, and Oklahoma, he served as senior pastor for three Churches of the Nazarene: Richardson (Richardson, Texas), Pasadena First (Pasadena, California), and Nampa College. Scott also served on theology faculties at Southern Nazarene and Northwest Nazarene Universities and served as the Dean of the School of Theology and Seminary at Azusa Pacific University.
Dr. Daniels received a Bachelor of Arts degree from Northwest Nazarene University in 1988 and a Master of Divinity degree from Fuller Theological Seminary in 1992. He earned a PhD in Theology and Ethics from Fuller Theological Seminary in 2000.
Scott’s ministry has bridged the gap between the church and the academy, often teaching and pastoring simultaneously. In addition to his faculty positions at SNU, NNU, and APU, Scott has taught for Nazarene Theological Seminary, Trevecca Nazarene University, Africa Nazarene University, and Fuller Theological Seminary. This background proved useful during his lengthy service on the Nazarene Publishing Board and as a long-term member and chair of the Covenant of Christian Conduct Committee. He served as the chair of the Christian Action Committee at four General Assemblies.
Dr. Daniels has published numerous articles and book chapters, and delivered several academic papers and presentations. He has authored six books including Embracing Exile: Living Faithfully as God’s Unique People in the World; The First 100 Days: A Pastor’s Guide; and Seven Deadly Spirits: The Message of Revelation’s Letters for Today’s Church. His preaching is widely respected throughout the church, making him a sought-after speaker and frequent homiletics teacher and advisor. He has created and maintained a successful podcast – New Creation Conversations – building bridges between the local church and the Christian academy.
Dr. Daniels and his wife, Debbie, live in Nampa, Idaho. They have four adult children (Caleb, Noah, Jonah, and Sophia) and three daughters-in-law.
