Blogger hasn't really changed since I started using it.

You scored as Chalcedon compliant. You are Chalcedon compliant. Congratulations, you're not a heretic. You believe that Jesus is truly God and truly man and like us in every respect, apart from sin.

He's pretty stinking rad. Last week he told us not to worry, and to keep our treasure in heaven, and now this week he's telling us to be ready for his return. The only way we can really be ready is if we don't hold on to this world, but we live like the Israelites on the night of the first http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/jesus-what-guy.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115629048928629602Tue, 22 Aug 2006 23:33:00 +00002006-08-22T16:49:27.886-07:00So every once and awhile I like to read stuff that I know will really challenge my thinking and stretch my brain a little bit. So I went to the library and put on reserve a bunch of books that seemed interesting, one of which is The Beauty of the Infinite, by David Bentley Hart. I just started reading this today, and the introduction is already making my head hurt. I really hope I can get http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/beauty-of-infinite.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115618192755899588Mon, 21 Aug 2006 17:29:00 +00002006-08-21T10:38:47.576-07:00So this morning I have been working AND taking care of Judah while Kathy is sleeping because she had to work last night. This has been tough. But we made it. Mondays are always tough because Judah's schedule is all messed up because of Sunday. But he's sleeping right now. I have been trying to get him to sleep for a while but the problem is he gets so tired that he gets himself all worked uphttp://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/monday-morning-reflections.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115596444481394667Sat, 19 Aug 2006 05:09:00 +00002006-08-18T22:14:04.826-07:00I think it's funny how people use their blogs to combat some one else point of view. Is that really the best way to spark a debate? Is that even effective? It seems like it's a waste of creativity to just bash other peope, or maybe it's a lack of creativity. It's one thing to state your opinion it's another to actually attack people. I've seen it from the right and the left, and it just http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/blog-wars.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115594099416906019Fri, 18 Aug 2006 22:38:00 +00002006-08-18T16:48:24.533-07:00So it's been a slow day at C&B so I created a wikipedia entry for myself. I'll continue to update it, but the beauty of wikipedia is that anyone can update it. So if you want to add some more "facts" have fun. I want to see if wikipedia will ever delete it. Read the entry here update -- Wiki must be on top of it because they already deleted my entry. We'll just have to try again later.http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/wikipedia.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115584308271535584Thu, 17 Aug 2006 19:11:00 +00002006-08-17T12:31:22.736-07:00Man I can't believe it's been almost a week since my last post. I don't know what's wrong with me. Sorry to all my millions of readers. I know that you have been hanging on for the latest nugget of wisdom or humorous anecdote. I'm sorry that you have had to endure the silence. Know you know how the inter-testamental period must have felt. Or Whatever. . . The main reason I haven't http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/dropping-off-my-game.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115533538241252647Fri, 11 Aug 2006 22:18:00 +00002006-08-11T17:33:05.940-07:00So I just got back from our summer camp. What a great week. Our speaker was great, the band was great, the weather was hot but not dealy hot, I lost five pounds, a great way to boost up you diet, I have broken the 260 barrier, the kids bonded in ways that really surprised me, and the food was actually really good (bigger surprise.) All in all, it was great fun. I was in charge of the river http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/summer-camp-06-epic.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115479466694599282Sat, 05 Aug 2006 16:09:00 +00002006-08-05T09:17:47.900-07:00So this Tour de France was one upset after another, it opened with many of the favorites being ousted for doping, and now it's come to a close with another doping scandal. I was so happy when Floyd Landis came back from behind to win! And now I'm bummed that it's come out that his second test came back positive, you can read for yourself here. I went to his website and it wasn't respodning. http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/tour-de-france-blues.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115473579876537906Fri, 04 Aug 2006 23:35:00 +00002006-08-04T16:59:08.820-07:00Well It's friday afternoon, and I really don't have much to write about. Camp is pretty much in the bag. Work is pretty dead, and I have .5 hours left until I get to go home. Tonight I will be going to a Worship Concert by my friend Chris Ritchie. Chris and I were in a band together and you can read about it here. Planning on this evening has brought back a lot of memories about the band http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/friday-afternoon.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115470488141760313Fri, 04 Aug 2006 15:18:00 +00002006-08-04T08:21:21.430-07:00So I have been wanting to write a book for sometime. And it's hard to build the momentum to get going I have actually several ideas that I have been kicking around. A book about Jesus in the Book of Hebrews, a book about Youth ministry, and a novel based on the songs of Johnny Cash. But I just haven't had the time and focus to really get working on any of them. But I came across this http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/great-article-on-writing.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115464960097919150Thu, 03 Aug 2006 23:17:00 +00002006-08-03T17:00:01.040-07:00I love worship, I love to sing worship songs, I love to play worship songs, I love worshipping Jesus. But in Body Peircing Saved My Life I came Across this lengthy quote. Worship Music is the logical conclusion of Christian adult contemporary music -- not just unappealing but unbearable to anyone not already in the fold. Every song follows the sam parameters. It opens gently, with http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/worship.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115463795119168084Thu, 03 Aug 2006 19:39:00 +00002006-08-03T13:45:51.273-07:00and watching fighter jets fly over head at breakneck speeds. Let me explain. Seafair is in full swing here in Seattle, and every year along with the pirate, the parade, the hydro planes, and the drunken boat parties the Blue Angels come to town. And with the blue angels comes the annual mid morning thursday traffic jame as the blue angels do their practice. So this traffic jam was causinghttp://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/what-wonderful-day-for-walk.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115455959940822079Wed, 02 Aug 2006 19:21:00 +00002006-08-02T16:00:00.266-07:00So I've had Body Peircing Saved My Life on my currently reading panel for some time but I am just now really geting into it. A phone call from the library saying it's due will really put some energy behind reading a book. This is a book written by one of the Contributing editors of Spin Magazine, he's not a christian, and he's giving an outsiders view at the phenomenon of Christian Music. http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/body-piercing.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115452703113619165Wed, 02 Aug 2006 13:56:00 +00002006-08-02T06:57:11.160-07:00Hey Everyone, I've posted some pictures of Judah on flickr, check them out herehttp://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/flickr-photos.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115447533761418217Tue, 01 Aug 2006 23:26:00 +00002006-08-01T16:35:37.643-07:00As I begin to look to fall I am feeling excitement about all the things that are going to be going on. Transit will launch back up on September 20th, that's something that I am crazy excited about. Even though it's another thing that I have to prepare for each week, it's totally fun because we get to talk about the bible, worship and build community. Also I am starting to plan for elevate 07http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/excited.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115444653438703216Tue, 01 Aug 2006 15:26:00 +00002006-08-01T08:35:34.400-07:00So last night Judah slept from 9ish to 5am, that's right 8 hours of glorious sleep. I'm praying that this isn't just some freak night that teases us and gives us a sense of false hope. But he's really cute anyway and I haven't posted a picture for a while so here's one: http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/08/sleep-is-beautiful.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115438949206736194Mon, 31 Jul 2006 23:41:00 +00002006-07-31T16:46:21.686-07:00We'll I have an official speaker site, willspeakforfood.blogspot.com. For the people who know me you may look at this and think it was just a slow day at Cutter & Buck, but I assure you, that it is more that that. Hopefully, and prayerfully, opportunities will arise for me to share my love of the Bible with others, and if I get food too, great news. I didn't want to launch with Jason Deuman http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/07/willspeakforfoodblogspotcom.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115438189000451938Mon, 31 Jul 2006 21:31:00 +00002006-07-31T14:38:10.020-07:00So I was thinking about camp speakers and how much they must have, especially if it's not their full-time gig. Think about it, they get paid to go and talk about Jesus and hang out with kids for a week, sometimes they aren't even asked to hang out, they just go and talk. Motivational speakers too, they just go and say stuff that they think will help people. That's a pretty sweet gig.

I'm praying that all the details come together because right now I don't know how that's going to happen. I have been jerked around by this company that I'm ordering innertubes from. First they never told me that they couldn't complete my order so when I called to check the status they said they never shipped it, so I had to change the order http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/07/getting-ready-for-camp.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115413109784613409Fri, 28 Jul 2006 23:55:00 +00002006-07-28T16:58:17.860-07:00 This has been a tragic couple of weeks, I don't really know what to say, but this seemed appropriate. I'm not one to create armaggedon scenarios, but the situation in the middle east is dire, and it seems like no one really wants peace. I remember the Covenant that God made with Abraham, something to the effect of, blessed to be a blessing. I hope that still holds true for all his http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/07/sad.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6035632.post-115395725305640175Wed, 26 Jul 2006 22:57:00 +00002006-07-26T16:40:55.116-07:00I've basically finished McLaren's The Secret Message of Jesus, I just have the apendices left and I rarely ever read those so I'm as good as done. It was a thought provoking book, and I gotta say, not as controversial as I thought it would be. McLaren definetly paints a picture of Jesus that is compassionate, revolutionary, and on a mission. Which is where we should all be as his followers.http://jasondeuman.blogspot.com/2006/07/interesting-stuff-from-secret-message.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (jdeuman)
