So some of you may have noticed this tall, goofy looking guy lurking around the P.A.R.K.  You may have asked yourself, “Is he lost?", or maybe “Did he just get out of Jail?"  SO, I guess it is time for my introduction, my blogiduction. 

My Name is Timothy Cox. No, I am not related to the cable company.  I was born and raised in Arizona. 
I was 16 when I dedicated my life to ministry.  I grew up going to church regularly and have certain skills that, to me, were meant for ministry.  I left high school in 2000 a 1/2 credit shy of graduating.  I felt that I knew enough to make it out in the "real world." However, I quickly found out that I was wrong.  I of course made sure to get that high school diploma, and then I joined the Army.  I spent just under 5 years in and learned a lot about life and what God wanted me to do.  I am married to my "high school sweetheart" Shannon Cox.  We have 2 kids- Preston (5) and Emma Marie (1).  My Wife has been my rock on this journey and is 100% supportive of my choice to volunteer my time 40+ hours a week.  It is so amazing to have the partnership that we have and to both understand God's plan for us.

My main goal is to become a Children’s Pastor.  After some long talks and a lot of prayer, I have come to realize that this is what God has planned for me.  All this honestly was very scary for me! I feel a person has to be crazy to accept that they're supposed to teach God's children about Jesus Christ; to instill all the right tools to take with them through life.  That to me is huge.  I feel God has shown me through all my life experiences leading up to now that this is what I am crazy enough to do and succeed at.  I am not scared now.  I am excited to teach kids about Christ and lead them in worship.  Nothing I have done in life fills my heart with as much joy as this job. 

So to close this blogiduction, no I have never been in jail, and no I am not lost.  My name is Tim Cox and I am here to teach your kids everything I can possibly teach them about our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.




My name is Tim Cox and I approve this message.
