Where did the name revkasedoggy come from? Back when AOL came out with its instant message feature to its internet service there were a few kids in my youth group who called me kasedog! Yo kasedoggy! It fit. I kept it. When I finally passed by the grace of God all of my ordination exams and jumped through the hoops for ordination as a minister of word and sacrament in the PCUSA I added the “REV.”

After all these years, again, Youth Specialties did a great job with its annual youth workers seminar. Myself and 9 others made the track down to Fresno at 5:30am and spent the day hearing again the importance of a relational youth ministry and its benefit to loving kids into the kingdom. The highlight though was this reminder that as youth workers we have to laugh. This was shown during one of the breaks. It was the first time I had seen or heard about it. Can’t help but laugh. “Baby Got Book.”

Fascinated! I’m blown away by this blog thing. I had no idea on how its changing the way information is being pumped out. I was just a Barnes and Noble and reading a book by Hugh Hewitt. Over 4 million blogs and this could double this year? It indeed is a reformation in the way information is being sent out. The fact that news print will be on the decline baffles me. Now I just need to think of a way to use my experience in ministry as a way of bringing glory to God as people like Mark Roberts and many others have in using their gifts in writing to help the church. The question is what do I write about? Better finish reading Hewitt’s book.
