Pastor Scott Mills
Pastor Scott Mills and his wife Teresa, along with Restoration Fellowship International, established New Testament Christian Fellowship, now Carolina Foothills Christian fellowship
CFCF is non-denominational, biblically based, and has been serving the Kingdom of God and the Upstate located in Landrum SC since 1999.
Pastor Scott was formerly a Physical Therapist/Athletic Trainer who was called into Pastoral ministry in 1999. He has maintained his license in Physical Therapy and has gone on to receive a Bachelors in Theology, and a Masters in Divinity. He will tell you that he relies completely upon the anointing of the Holy Spirit to be effective.

Please take a moment to read Pastor Scott's biography below:
Hi, my name is Scott Mills and I am blessed to have been called to pastor CFCF. I married my beautiful wife Teresa in 1987 and I have two sons, Ryan and Brett, and reside in the Landrum, S.C. area. I enjoy spiritual and physical training as well as ongoing continuing education for my Spiritual and Professional Growth. I'm currently working on a double Doctorate of Sacred Studies & Divinity.
I grew up in the Lutheran Church and have been a member of various denominational churches since my childhood. Some of those churches include the Church of God, Christian Missionary Alliance, the Baptist Church and an inter-denominational church. I believe the Lord was preparing me for future ministry as a Pastor, by allowing me to experience each of the strengths of these wonderful fellowships.
I graduated from the University of Miami, Florida, as a Physical Therapist, and went on to obtain my certification as an Athletic Trainer. I was blessed to be able to spend 15 years in the healthcare field, with my last tenure as Director of Rehabilitation at Spartanburg Regional Medical Center. During this time, the Lord began to orchestrate my life's circumstances, to push me into pursuing multiple degrees in Theology, and embracing the work of the Holy Spirit in my life.
Having grown up in various denominational churches, the Lord led me to begin a non-denominational fellowship emphasizing strong relationship building, and a Theocratic form of government. To put it simply: God leads, and the Pastor and Elders of the church submit and follow Him. To this end and through much prayer, Teresa and I were blessed by God to help birth New Testament Christian Fellowship, now named Carolina Foothills Christian Fellowship. Our spiritual coverings are a group of like minded pastors of non-denominal churches. We believe that for us to be in authority we must be under authority.
The vision of CFCF is to win the lost to Jesus Christ through relationship evangelism, equip the Body of Christ for works of service and embrace the full authority given to us as believers. Please view the various ministries we offer on this website to get a feel for how we accomplish these two calls to service. We believe that through relationship building, sound teaching, obedience, and most importantly through LOVE; we can do our part to build the Kingdom of God along with other Christian brothers and sisters in the Lord, for His Glory.
In His Service,
Pastor Scott F. Mills
