Not Even a Competitor


When the local youth here at CAC started calling me "the Faster Pastor", none of them had any idea that other ministers elsewhere in the world were already called by that nickname. Neither did I.

When I first set up my blog, it was just www.dougjoseph.net. My real name. At the start, it was not the blog of "The Faster Pastor" (although the youth were already calling me that, especially Brother Rusty). When I began to incorporate into the design of my blog the kids' "k-e-w-l" moniker for me, I continued to use the same domain as always.

Today one of the youth, Sister Amanda, said, "I tried to get to your blog by typing "fastorpaster.com" but I got something else." I thought, 'Hey, I wonder if my nickname is available in either .com, .net, or .org?' I said to the youth, "It's at www.dougjoseph.net, but I will try and see if any of the other domains are available."

None of them are available (none of the big three).

But you should see the website and read the story of the real, original "Faster Pastor" in the UK! I never knew he existed until today. I'm not a cheap imitator or a "knock-off." I'm not even a competitor.

I do ride, and I am a member of Azusa Street Riders (a Oneness, Apostolic, Pentecostal motorcycle ministry), but when it comes to the motorcycle ministry of the guy you're about to meet, I'm not even close. Are you ready for this? Here you go. Enjoy!

Did I mention the website yet?

In case you missed it, here it is again:

I'm not even a competitor.

PS: By the way, I just sold my big honkin' 1400cc Suzuki Intruder and downsized to a 650cc Yamaha VStar Classic. It's nice, now! We're planning to join with many other Azusa Street Riders later on this year (end of September, early October) for a cross-country ride (basically, the path will be from wherever one lives ... to St. Louis, MO) for the United Pentecostal Church International's annual General Conference. Bro Adam (from CAC) will be joining me, and several others (mostly other UPC ministers from WV). We'll be meeting up with other ASR riders as we go. It's going to be a blast. Brethren, if you ride, sign up with ASR now! It will be (as the kids say) "k-e-w-l."
