Hello, friend! I’m Scotty Carroll, the president of Innerfire Ministries. I have been married to my lovely wife, Johnna, since 1992, and together we’ve been involved in ministry for most of those twenty-nine years. Along the way, we raised three children and are now blessed with two wonderful daughters-in-law, a great son-in-law, four beautiful granddaughters, and two grandsons.
I was born and raised a farm boy in Northwest Florida and later attended Florida State University, where I earned a degree in electrical engineering. After serving four years on active duty in the U.S. Air Force, I began an engineering career in the private sector. About ten years ago, I co-founded Echo Power Engineering, where I remain active today.
Throughout my life, I’ve served in many ministry roles—bi-vocational music minister, deacon, Sunday School teacher, traveling musician, seminary student, and bi-vocational pastor. Through it all, God has been faithful. The road hasn’t always been easy, but every trial has deepened my faith and strengthened my reliance on Jesus.
Johnna and I now make our home in Westmoreland, Tennessee. When I’m not working on the business or ministry, I enjoy riding my tractor and spending time on the farm. We also love to travel, explore our national parks, and go camping together.
My name is Johnna Carroll, and I love being a ministry leader with Innerfire! I have enjoyed being in several forms of ministry over the past twenty-nine years: choir director, singing group member, Sunday School teacher, life group leader, and even pastor’s wife. Serving the Lord has been sweet, and I wouldn’t take anything for the journey the Lord has given me.
I have been ultra-blessed to be married to the love of my life, Scotty Carroll. We have three wonderful adult children and our family has been growing, to our delight! We are the proud parents of Hannah and husband, Matthew; Jacob and wife, Josie; and Andrew and wife, Courtnee. We have four little granddaughters and two grandsons!
We are a very close family and love to be together whenever we can. To us, family time is the absolute best time!
I have a bachelor’s degree in Spanish education and a master’s degree in learning and design, but I spent most of my adult years homeschooling our children. We had a wonderful experience and are so glad we did it. I love to talk homeschooling to anyone who is interested. Personally, I enjoy being a homemaker and all thing home-related. I also enjoy reading and traveling. Scotty and I both enjoy hiking and camping, and one of our favorite places to visit is Great Smoky Mountains National Park. We love nothing better than to sit by the campfire after a long hike with a fresh cup of coffee.
My name is Andrew Carroll, and I am the Ministry Development Leader at Innerfire. I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior at the age of six, and my life has been dedicated to Him ever since. Having been raised in a musical family, I have always been a musician at heart. I decided to make music my primary focus in high school, taking piano and voice lessons and arranging. I went on to receive a degree in Music and Worship from Lee University, where I had the privilege of singing in the a cappella ensemble Voices of Lee. It was also at Lee that I met my amazing wife, Courtnee. The Lord has blessed Courtnee and I with two precious children, and the four of us live in Orlando, Florida.
I am a lover of coffee, tea, sweet vocal harmonies, and thought-provoking movies. There are few things I love to do more than to sit down with a friend or family member and dive into a deep and intriguing subject. The Lord has given me a thirst for knowledge and wisdom, and I hope to share what I am learning from Him through this wonderful ministry.
