Scott Hamilton | Olympic Figure Skater & Cancer Survivor Shares His Inspiring Story

[@marianneolivier7170]

As a figure skating fan, fellow Christian and fellow cancer survivor, I really appreciate this video!!

[@iveyg2993]

I can’t skate, but I have loved figure skating ever since 1980. I cheered for you, Scott, when you won gold, I cried for Katia when Sergei died, I loved having you explain skating on tv for many years, I’ve clapped with joy at your back flip on Stars on Ice, and now I’m watching this at 5 am as I wake up again with a headache and have to go see a neurologist next week. Thank you, Scott, for your life, your example, for pointing people to Christ.

[@cards0486]

A purer heart and a dearer person has not existed. There’s no one like Scott. I pray for his health to continue to be good. And pray that his sweet family are all well and happy.

[@baritonebynight]

I would rather see Tonya Harding.

[@lindatrail5353]

Love this man.

[@WeRHisPoem]

I really miss seeing Scott Hamilton. I don't feel like ice Skating is at all as cool and fun as it used to be with skaters like Scott. God bless him. Wow what a story. Thanks for sharing your faith and courage .

Amen! I have a 30 year old son I named after Scott Hamilton. In 2017 my husband was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and died in 2020. A few weeks before my husband died the hospice counselor asked my son how he felt. My son said he wasn’t going to say goodbye because in Christ and our salvation it’s really, “Until I see you again in Heaven.” (And my son is on the spectrum. So to hear him say this, as someone who seldom speaks was mind-blowing.) Scott’s testimony with Tracy is somewhat similar to my husband. My husband and I had gone out for a couple of dates and I asked him where he stood with Jesus. He said he believed there was a higher power but that he didn’t believe in God. I told him that I wanted to share with him that God loves him and offers a wonderful plan for his life, but that I could not get past the first word given how he felt.

I loved watching Scott skate and I didn't know he was a believer. This was a beautiful testimony. God is good. All the time.

[@charmainegrandin401]

What a wonderful wonderful testimony!! Thank you Scott. May the Lord bless you and keep you disease free. You are truly an inspiration.

[@wildrootvnam1645]

Just a wonderful human being! He's an inspiration to all of us! God bless you Scott and your beautiful family too.

[@annwrog]

A Great Testimony. This motivated me. I always found Scott Hamilton an inspiration.. and now even more so.

[@kathydauz9956]

I first saw Scott competing at the Lake Placid Olympics in 1980 in which he placed fifth. By the time of the 1984 Olympics in Sarajevo, I adored this man. He is 4 years younger than me. I saw him skate in person 4 times in 1984 in the Ice Capades-twice in LA & twice in Oakland. I gave him flowers twice at the Ice Capades & he is so genuine, a real sweetheart & caring person. Such thrilling experiences for me! I saw him perform in Stars on Ice in So CA maybe 12-15 times. I am thrilled that he knows the Lord & loves the Lord!! I was raised by two excellent parents (now deceased) in a Christian home & have 3 younger siblings, 1 younger sister is deceased. I love you very much, Scott & your family, too!! ❤❤

[@marycarmichael311]

Scott Hamilton we love you and your amazing attitude and testimony!

[@tonics7121]

Scott is just pure joy and always has been.

[@annraczok670]

Thank you for sharing this testimony & calling, @Christ Community Church. Just as Scott Hamilton has been strenthened through repetitiously skating the figure eight, it's cutting edges, balance, endurance, etc to prepare him for the perfect skate in his life on earth... so also his faith working through his trials & tribulations is strengthened for perfection & triumphs over death from this temporary life to one 'eternally in Christ'. Ironically, the symbol "8" represents eternity, infinity, forever, without end... & God does reward His children... with a crown of gold ! God bless you, Scott.

[@jlcmsw]

For all the times…amazing times I have seen Scott skate, this is the best side of him I have seen. He’s such a great role model and now one of my eternal family members! Praying for Scott, his lovely family.

[@marysharp-koehler8605]

Such a magnificent story! All those years watching him skate and I never knew his story!! So wonderful,,, God is so good!!

[@WeRHisPoem]

I am so inspired by this child of God. Scott is an example for all of us. Thank you so much!

[@coleneritchie5625]

A skater that I truly loved and thought he represented our country so well.

[@Dobviews]

Scott, you are a living inspiration. Thank you, for all the times you got "back up".

[@Rachell_H]

He has the best attitude and he's funny. I was in 10th grade when he competed in 1994. I love the walk this way routine.

[@hestergreen2031]

Scott has an awesome sense of humor.. I love his telling his story

[@tabithasabella5212]

Proud to call him my older brother in Christ. He is the greatest, a inspiration,, truly a strong courageous, and my hero

[@ToosieJoie1]

Remarkable person. Gifted and the very best male entertainer and ice skater.

[@allisonmooney9993]

Beautiful story Scott! God is with you!!!

[@lindathatcher2148]

When I got to the point of "going all in" I literally felt like I lost 1000 Lbs. off my shoulders. Thanks for sharing. it was awesome to listen to.

[@jackiec1175]

Such a HUGE inspiration. God speaking so clearly & strongly through his testimony. Thanks be to God.

[@jules5064]

Scott was always one of my favorite skaters, no matter where he did it...I'm glad he survived what he has...

[@martharawlinson2439]

Amazing how God works in our lives!❤

[@SharonIrving-j8w]

[@theboldlife]

Such a great speaker!

[@jeanettemcdonald5779]

Scott is very inspiring, amazing human being and fantastic skater.

[@melissakonrad9038]

Scott, I didn't know you were a Christian, but I'm glad you are! I can see the joy & peace of Christ in your smiling face. W/all these skaters coming out as "gay", you represent the pure side of skating. I've always loved your skating, especially the back flip! I always get nervous when you do that! Look forward to seeing you in Massachusetts/Cape Cod sometime! Would love to meet you! My prayers are w/you & for good health, as well as prayers for your family. Keep your testimony strong! & yes, I'll pray for Tonya Harding. She was a good skater too. If she repents, maybe the international skating committee will let her skate in competitions again.

[@DeaSchillo]

Would love to see Scott do "will you still love me when i am 64" clip again..!!

[@hollyyeh1591]

He is talented, sweet young man 😅

[@SharonIrving-j8w]

I love you scotty

[@maryellenclark313]

Love this interview and love Scott. Why doesn't the pastor introduce himself before they start and make sure it's a part of the interview? 😊

[@radvibes]

The agency could have gotten health history. I was also adopted as a baby and couldn't keep my food down. I think adoption is traumatic even for a 6 week old.

[@gtillman96]

I also was adopted at birth. I, however, call my adoption the BEST GIFT THAT GOD EVER GAVE ME. I know absolutely nothing about my birth mother and father except that I would love to meet them to say THANK YOU! BTW- I love Scott- I went to college at Bowling Green State University. He would come and skate there before he made it big- he’s from Bowling Green Ohio, He actually spoke at my college graduation! I think that I fell in love with him when I first saw him. (early 80’s)

[@SharonIrving-j8w]

I told you you would be our olympic gold at the Broadmoor 1978 . 9:02

[@TRUTHLIGHTHOUSE1033]

In Exodus 3:14 I AM! Same I AM in John 8:58. Exodus 3:14 KJV And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. John 8:58 KJV Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

[@ambermcrann3285]

Lol who made this list? I was born and raised in Dawson Creek and its a farming and oil rig community. Dawson Creeks community is an older generation who arnt that fond of big changes its a old English, Scottish set of mind. The biggest store is Walmart wich dosnt give alot of different styles. Another big community is the aboriginal community. Unfortunately due to lack of entertainment there is a lot of people indulging in drugs or alcohol. The second town they mentioned Prince George has one of the biggest jails in Canada just on the outskirts so it also unfortunately has a big issue of drugs, alcohol and crime.

Scott, you brought so much joy to so many who watched you at peak performance, it is only fitting that we surround you in prayer for spiritual healing. You are such an inspiring man, and deserve miracles. I pray for your wellness and give thanks for your spellbinding performances on ice. God Bless. 🎶🕺🏽⛸🏆🙏🏽💕

[@beaumac1950]

I’ve known Scott thru friends as professional skaters and … this is a Very New Story I’ve not known concerning Scott’s complete journey … I am a Christian … or at least have always wanted to be a “complete Christian” … until I just got run over with the Holy Spirit just now … with this Amazing Presentation that I am sure will lead many many many “lost souls” to Jesus and His Healing Forgiveness 😇🙏🤟🤟🤟😇🙏 and Salvation … It has been awhile since I have been “influenced” by any meaningful story such that I’ve just experienced thru my Dear Soul~Buddy, Scott Hamilton … Thank You Scott … Thank You Jesus … Thank You God thru our Holy Spirit that lives and thrives in each and everyone here on earth … as it is God’s Gift thru Jesus Christ, Out Lord and Savior 🙏😇 AMEN … With Love in My Heart 💜Beau (Donald) Saucier …Laguna Beach, California …

[@cynthiamcgee4829]

To have seen him skate in the seventies at the Broadmore World Arena, you never would have believed that he started out this way as a young baby. May God bless you with good health for many, many years. I actually got to know you at the Broadmoor and skated on the ice with you. You were an amazing young man who turned into an amazing adult.⛸️⛸️

[@nadinemilford9539]

I loved your skating. I’m so happy your a Christian. Thanks for your testimony.

[@SharonIrving-j8w]
