The Greater Call Podcast – Episode 13: Ted Scott on Paul | Second Chances

In Episode 13 of The Greater Call, Mark Immelman welcomes long-time PGA TOUR caddie, coach, and Sunday-sermon storyteller Ted Scott for a powerful conversation on transformation, leadership, perspective, and what it truly means to find joy beyond circumstances.

Through the lens of the Apostle Paul—once a fierce persecutor of Christians, later a bold ambassador of grace—Mark and Ted explore how second chances shape us, strengthen us, and invite us into deeper purpose.

With raw honesty, humor, personal stories from the PGA TOUR, and spiritual insight, this episode shines a spotlight on joy in hardship, humility in leadership, and the life-changing power of encountering Jesus.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

🎙️ Why Paul’s transformation is one of the most radical in Scripture
🎙️ How God used Paul’s past—not in spite of it, but through it
🎙️ Why humility, teachability, and wisdom make the strongest leaders
🎙️ The spiritual perspective that carried Paul through shipwrecks, beatings, and prison
🎙️ How Ted practices leadership and humility while caddying for World No. 1 Scottie Scheffler
🎙️ Why joy can exist even in suffering—and how Ted has experienced this in his family’s current trial
🎙️ The power of forgiveness, especially toward those who hurt you
🎙️ Why being “all things to all people” is a biblical model for influencing others with authenticity

Key Themes

Transformation Begins With Encounter
Paul went from persecutor to preacher overnight—proof that no one is beyond God’s reach.

Leadership Requires Humility
From the fairways of the PGA TOUR to the teachings of Paul, humility and teachability always outperform ego.

Joy Is Not Circumstantial
Echoing Paul in prison, Ted shares how he has found supernatural peace while walking through deep family pain.

Forgiveness Frees Everyone Involved
Paul’s forgiveness of the jailer mirrors how choosing grace over resentment changes hearts.

Your Weakness Can Become Someone Else’s Strength
Vulnerability is not a liability—it’s an invitation for others to heal, grow, and believe they can change too.

Becoming “All Things to All People”
Authentic influence requires connection, empathy, and a willingness to meet people where they are.

Whether you’re navigating leadership, parenting, hardship, or personal growth, this episode will inspire you to embrace your second chance—and the transformation waiting on the other side.
