About the Book

This is a story about life in ministry but it is not a story of strength. The journey began quite exciting when I received a surprising call to leave the comfort and certainty of engineering and follow Jesus into full-time ministry. But my incompetence quickly rose to the surface through ministry, family, and health challenges. After eight long years, I started to feel competent, and yet incompetence lurked around every corner. Family life was fragile, I couldn't please everyone, and it felt like I was working harder but getting fewer results. At the peak of my perceived competence, I was hit with another season of suffering that would end in a death of sorts, but God brought new life out of it in a way I never could have imagined. A story twenty years in the making A story told not by an expert, but by one who failed time and time again A campus ministry story written for all kinds of ministers A story designed to help a new generation consider a life of ministry A story that allows you to wrestle with your incompetence Endorsement: It is overwhelming to think about, yet at the same time, a super time to be in ministry. We have the opportunity to be proclaiming the truths of Jesus and the Scriptures to a generation that doesn't know. Casey has written a book here which is so hopeful. It is not just looking at the negative things, but the positive opportunities we have-and practical ways to move forward to see a generation know Jesus and grow in their faith.-Dan Kimball, author of How (Not) To Read The Bible and VP of Western SeminaryIn this bravely honest and searching memoir, Casey welcomes us into his journey as a campus minister (something he did not intend to be) with some soaring high points and crushing troughs, both professional and personal. But it is much more than his story... it is his invitation to do your examination of God's work in your own story and a call to all of us to attend to the hundreds of thousands of students on campuses across America... surely one of the primary mission fields in our backyards. READ IT! And along the way write your own story!-Randy Harris, Retired Professor at Abilene Christian University and author of God Work and Living Jesus About the Author: Casey grew up in Arkansas and planned to be a chemical engineer in college, but God changed his life through campus ministry at the University of Arkansas. Casey received his Master of Divinity from Abilene Christian University and then worked for 15 years in campus ministry at Ole Miss before an unexpected move sent his family to Delaware where he has been a campus missionary since 2019. Casey and his wife Tracey have three amazing kids: Miles, Maggie, and Moses.

His vision, passion, and years of experience give us a very personal and powerful insight into his life and ministry. You will be challenged to go deeper into your calling and commitment to invest yourself in winning, discipling and launching this incredibly strategic group we call students.-Steve Shadrach, author of The Fuel and the Flame and The God Ask
