I was honored to co-write 4 of the songs on the album with him including: Never Going Back, The Other Side, Savior's Love, and the title track, More Than Moved. This record is great from start to finish. Michael is one of the most sincere artist and worship leaders in the music industry today and I count it a privaledge to collaborate with him and more importantly to call him friend. I hope you'll take a moment to check out <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/more-than-moved/id396516503">More Than Moved</a>.

I released <a href="http://www.jasoncoxonline.com/store.htm">COLLIDE</a>, my 4th solo record. If you haven't heard it, check it out <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/collide/id302808322">here</a> on Itunes! <br /><br />In September, my band teamed up with conference speaker <a href="http://www.fantheflame.org">Cody Deese</a> to launch <a href="http://www.identificationtour.com">IDENTIFICATION TOUR</a>, a 3 month 33 city tour. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghlCZx54p-SmvY05-_JnMOeSTXyDsr-EFi5UUtdgQNsFyQyM48ExD5McKxddaWCvNj0Hl54dxm0Z3opsf8Pr0DxJIHEMsSlK6eUCXyWpnHRZ9q1Vv9aVXyRlngRhwdAm3UhjAbZANO8to/s1600-h/7734_519420475556_51502101_30829706_6743776_n.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghlCZx54p-SmvY05-_JnMOeSTXyDsr-EFi5UUtdgQNsFyQyM48ExD5McKxddaWCvNj0Hl54dxm0Z3opsf8Pr0DxJIHEMsSlK6eUCXyWpnHRZ9q1Vv9aVXyRlngRhwdAm3UhjAbZANO8to/s200/7734_519420475556_51502101_30829706_6743776_n.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5420774626945819186" /></a>It was a huge success as numerous students found their purpose in Christ, many through salvation. <br /><br />In October, Lena and I celebrated 2 years of marriage! I also recently signed a new publishing deal with Amplify Music Group. As a writer, I have several songs being recorded next year by artist's like Selah, Anthony Evans, and Michael Boggs (formerly of FFH). They'll be hitting a store shelf near you soon. Make sure to go pick up a copy!<br /><br />I hope you all had a Merry Christmas and I wish you a great 2010! <br /><br />Much Love,<br />Jason<br /><a href="http://www.jasoncoxonline.com">www.jasoncoxonline.com </a>Jason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-76234421094095035162009-12-29T11:31:00.001-08:002009-12-29T11:48:22.445-08:00ID TOUR 2009<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGBVQx4sJfZGJaal6IE0PMnE2RvKNHz8BOiMIv-FFoWPmSJfefexeDiq4Zcu-0nrdKRqxjNQcdp7o_TJenXpjTJnULnszYhbvJoL2X2oZYLu18ghdxaxp2rOUGiC10E6nLFSuACtx9hlY/s1600-h/9923_1055213159375_1797238191_114604_2011275_n.jpg"><img style="display:block;

After several years and much prodding, we finally collaborated on a new worship project called Beauty In The Fall. It is a compilation of original songs and arrangements that have been specifically written and used over the years for different themes at Providence. It's a great CD, produced by Lee Holland and engineered by Brad Hill, and you're sure to enjoy it.

With our new friend, student speaker Ed Newton, we had an amazing time and witnessed God do some unbelievable things. From numerous decisions for Christ to students surrendering their lives to missions and ministry, it was evident all over the campus that God was at work. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4Sd9stzpFLvWcmgeuCvs_bJKf-mv574_G5ywxOu4OdZ6g5WlL2PcCd1Aif0I_Anx6YWL7LEN2s8wqeFKfu5dleb951OsSj8wMzAPCaH43osqXxWMMR09QvpDBIdJEra3uftZJ8ahFKLc/s1600-h/SBEC+PIC_1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4Sd9stzpFLvWcmgeuCvs_bJKf-mv574_G5ywxOu4OdZ6g5WlL2PcCd1Aif0I_Anx6YWL7LEN2s8wqeFKfu5dleb951OsSj8wMzAPCaH43osqXxWMMR09QvpDBIdJEra3uftZJ8ahFKLc/s320/SBEC+PIC_1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5255270622779696530" /></a>During our down time, the guys and I had the opportunity to stroll down Beale Street and feast on Memphis’s most famous BBQ ribs at The Legendary Rendezvous.

In July, I had the opportunity to travel to Guatemala and lead worship and work alongside a student group from Brentwood Baptist Church. After spending a week there, it is clear that God is moving throughout the inner-city streets of District 18 in Guatemala City. It was a sobering sight to see houses assembled with scrap medal for roofs and walls whose dimensions were the size of a walk-in closet functioning simultaneously as a living room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom. In a city where the public high schools are breading grounds for drug trafficking and prostitution, we worked with Shalom Church and School pouring concrete, painting, and digging wells to provide room so that the existing body of students which is already well above 700 could accommodate more students providing them access to a first-class education while connecting them with the message of Christ. Because of this school and church, entire families are embracing salvation, and the economic patterns of poverty that have existed for years are being broken by children with skills to go out and make an honest wage as mechanics, beauticians, farmers, and in some cases pastor’s and missionaries. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCVcbRVlqR7tzkWilJj747PMLFqEGU2scqfFoaQNVRcVR8vH1KaznsL7cbqw_kA9TnKSa69PZ6-zRi5W7i0vL6i2mXmhPsa8F8Ct6tZQNZRUQJgJ3ydWORa_u6cmuEC5fmf470zESbwJ8/s1600-h/100_0978.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCVcbRVlqR7tzkWilJj747PMLFqEGU2scqfFoaQNVRcVR8vH1KaznsL7cbqw_kA9TnKSa69PZ6-zRi5W7i0vL6i2mXmhPsa8F8Ct6tZQNZRUQJgJ3ydWORa_u6cmuEC5fmf470zESbwJ8/s320/100_0978.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241468571318061618" /></a><br /><br /><br />During my time there, four guys at Shalom Church and School especially impacted me. After a student pastor was asked to step aside for church discipline reasons, these four high school guys ranging from sixteen to seventeen years in age stepped up and together took on the role of student pastor. On a weekly basis, they organize student services, lead worship, teach bible studies and mentor their peers. I stood back and watched on a Sunday morning as a humid and musty concrete block room was filled to capacity with students smiling, laughing, and singing. It was a reminder that outside our borders, and thousands of miles away, God is being proclaimed and people are being impacted with his truth, and much of it is being done through the student generation. <br /><br />Just two nights ago, I sat in an international prayer service at Providence Church where citizens of Japan, Russia, Vietnam, and the Dominican Republic came together to pray and take communion. Once again I was moved by the greatness of God. A citizen of the country Georgia that is now under siege came forward and together with believers from every corner of the globe present, her country and fellow citizens were lifted up in prayer. We prayed for the hospital and pastorial training center that is now being erected in the Dominican and the movement of God that is currently taking place there. I often fail to realize all that God is doing beyond our shorelines but on my way home to Nashville that night, I was reminded of how God’s glory truly does fill the whole earth. <br /><br />My good friend Cody Deese has a fundamental belief and saying that “God is active.” After this summer, it’s never been truer, and my hope is that in this comfortable and often passive culture in which we live, we will wake up to the work of Christ and personally become active in the activity of God.<br /><br />If you’re looking for a place to begin, I encourage you to check out One Vision International at www.onevisioninternational.org<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidb0fFEn1vW2x2QOKdgY2ylMm_zT9UplF-yXnTQi3sOxocJdUKGVeMRW_S2UN2L11gkLSFhKP1T9D_Xe5P4PYW4qin0kzKQqn58F1cyAVRAUj0E_tNRBrudnINeSIbpoHF-BKLBkr2HeM/s1600-h/ovi_2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEidb0fFEn1vW2x2QOKdgY2ylMm_zT9UplF-yXnTQi3sOxocJdUKGVeMRW_S2UN2L11gkLSFhKP1T9D_Xe5P4PYW4qin0kzKQqn58F1cyAVRAUj0E_tNRBrudnINeSIbpoHF-BKLBkr2HeM/s320/ovi_2.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5241469610593349874" /></a>Jason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-2306352753678122792008-08-15T20:56:00.001-07:002008-08-15T20:56:49.927-07:00HYMN TIME WITH GRANDMA BEVERLY: HE TOUCHED ME<object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mv65ux7XcCU"> </param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/mv65ux7XcCU" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"> </embed> </object>Jason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-40050502648188291542008-07-28T14:39:00.000-07:002008-07-28T14:51:08.556-07:00And the summer rolls on...It's been a non stop summer and there's more to come!

I hope you had an amazing holiday yourself! Lena and I tackled our first married Christmas with a holiday tour of sorts. We hit Georgia, Florida, Alabama, and Tennessee within the span of one week. It’s funny how saying “I Do” literally doubles your family overnight. We had fun traveling the highways though as we made frequent stops for Quicktrip coffee (the best gas station coffee ever) and Cracker Barrel breakfast. Once back home, we took a break to recover from our break.<br /><br />We’re excited about 2008 as Lena and I both begin to work hard on new projects. The calendar is filling up and we hope to be seeing many of you on the road soon. We wish you and your family a blessed year. <br /><br />Much Love,<br />JasonJason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-88360986677977904372008-01-05T12:32:00.000-08:002008-01-09T12:51:19.861-08:00WEDDING PHOTOSSeveral of you had requested to see some photos from the wedding so I thought I'd post a few here for you to see.

However, we managed to somewhat ease into it due to a little thing called tonsillitis. While we were taking an eight-hour flight back to the states from Honolulu, an adorable dark skinned boy somewhere between the ages of 4 and 5 with an endearing smile sitting straight across the aisle from us began to produce an unsettling cough. Not the kind of polite muffled cough you hear on Sunday mornings resulting from an overabundance of perfumes filling the air. This kid was churning up something inside his chest that was ghastly. This cough reminded me of when I was a kid and Dad would pull the cord on the push mower. You’d hear grinding medal on medal, pistons choking, gas gurgling, the engine wanting to fire but not being able to catch. This poor kid no matter how hard he tried could not get out the foreign matter filling his respiratory system, yet you could feel him emitting the plague throughout the cabin with each rattling expulsion. Lena awoke to the sound and I believe her first words were, “Yep… I’m gonna be sick.” Sure enough within 24 hours, her throat got scratchy and her tonsils turned a color reminiscent of a fire truck. <br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO9Zo1MJm6oF8AvsJZfwwxvige5kF440rK_YBYuok7kee9uTnABuFy4SLUEaZnPlm6K5x4cnKVL-sCc7ENagM0q6tuvbUiNHGoQqnd7abkJAXhppB9ZEVGXWtjt31k3MwtXWkyCykt6RQ/s1600-h/100_0555_2.JPG"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgO9Zo1MJm6oF8AvsJZfwwxvige5kF440rK_YBYuok7kee9uTnABuFy4SLUEaZnPlm6K5x4cnKVL-sCc7ENagM0q6tuvbUiNHGoQqnd7abkJAXhppB9ZEVGXWtjt31k3MwtXWkyCykt6RQ/s200/100_0555_2.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5127745372636754466" /></a><br />After being diagnosed with tonsillitis, she was encouraged to take Monday and Tuesday off from work, which is perfect for me, because being a worship leader, Monday and Tuesday are sort of like my weekend. It was great getting to spend two days slowly adjusting to normal life with her by my side.<br /><br />Since the wedding, I’ve gotten several emails. Apparently word got out about a certain rehearsal dinner video of Lena and I that magnifies the more embarrassing moments of our lives. For those of you who have inquired, I’ll try to get that up on the blog soon, as well as some pictures from the wedding. It was an amazing day getting to share such a momentous occasion with friends and family. Thank you so much for all your words of encouragement and congratulations.<br />Much Love,<br />JasonJason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-87765974663292528772007-10-03T06:06:00.000-07:002007-10-04T06:10:12.532-07:00SHOWERSOctober 3, 2007<br /><br />As the wedding approaches, Lena and I have been in a constant state of preparedness. The process of completing a pre-wedding to-do list has been a much more daunting task than I first imagined, arranging meetings with bakers, florists, musicians, clergy, counselors, wedding planners, event coordinators, photographers, videographers and the list goes on. There are hotel rooms to be blocked off, tuxes to be reserved, limos to be rented, directions to be printed, and invitations to be sent. In a word, it’s madness. However, through it all one thing prevails. When the checklist has been completed and the day arrives, it will be an amazing occasion to watch my bride come through the doors with her father at her side, surrounded by family and friends, and together turn the page to a new chapter in our lives. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL2jI8IwtAOLTqFzv_3VC8CM_r33bMcYbPa5HAV4DvlGkxswjm-MHPZLnekoA0zJSRPy7ChYuQT6iEDqTyq0K_SndIuDEsfnlhODLWPqgazY7PA5IsBXjrlUDQOCWnJSo6S8FRASrL9JE/s1600-h/Wedding+Shower.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL2jI8IwtAOLTqFzv_3VC8CM_r33bMcYbPa5HAV4DvlGkxswjm-MHPZLnekoA0zJSRPy7ChYuQT6iEDqTyq0K_SndIuDEsfnlhODLWPqgazY7PA5IsBXjrlUDQOCWnJSo6S8FRASrL9JE/s320/Wedding+Shower.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5117465218598156530" /></a><br /><br />Through all the hustle of organizing for the big day, there have been moments of fun. Such moments consist of getting together with friends and opening gifts. I guess being a guy, you’re never exposed to the phenomenon known as “The Shower.” I can vividly remember being five or six years old and on occasion hearing Mom say she was headed to a shower. She always had shiny packages wrapped in ribbons and bows when she went on these outings but my infantile mind could never quite make the connection between gifts and personal daily hygiene. Well, after the past three months, I now understand quite well what a shower is. As I sit and write, my peripheral vision spies a living room littered with boxes and tissue paper encasing bath towels, dishes, toasters, and the occasional oddity like an egg yolk separator or a popsicle stick picture frame, of which all we are genuinely grateful for. <br /><br />Lena has attended many showers. I have fortunately only attended one. I’ve come to find the “Wedding Shower” environment is no place for a man. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBb7hexVrbB0XFjHO5c4MYwR_Sr9keMky6L6YaiCgzMZ8q-zN-MVev-jJBNg39HApqnvFmV06HRLSyGjRc0qJlR2A6AVNdIhXxNogpCSWPzyVuCznvYa67Ow1UyYxPGhnGoYLFDjyvops/s1600-h/gator+game.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjBb7hexVrbB0XFjHO5c4MYwR_Sr9keMky6L6YaiCgzMZ8q-zN-MVev-jJBNg39HApqnvFmV06HRLSyGjRc0qJlR2A6AVNdIhXxNogpCSWPzyVuCznvYa67Ow1UyYxPGhnGoYLFDjyvops/s200/gator+game.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5117466077591615746" /></a>In fact, I owe a big thanks to my good friend Cody Deese for granting me a reasonable excuse to forgo the last shower. He somehow managed to score 40 yard line tickets to the Florida/Tennessee game in Gainesville. Can I just pause and say the Gators looked FLAWLESS!! <br /><br />All in all, getting to the wedding has been a long endeavor but fun nonetheless. I guess it helps when you have a breathtaking bride, a supporting family, and encouraging friends. Just one piece of advise though… ELOPE!!! <br />No, I’m kidding, but really… <br />Much Love,<br />JasonJason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-26248538632668469632007-08-31T16:27:00.001-07:002007-08-31T16:31:57.124-07:00COOLEST GRANDMA EVER<embed src="http://godtube.com/flvplayer.swf" FlashVars="videoThumb=http://www.godtube.com/thumb/1_11877.jpg&flvPath=http://www.godtube.com/flvideo1/9/11877.flv" wmode="transparent" quality="high" width="330" height="270" name="flv_demo" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></embed><br /><br /><br /><embed src="http://godtube.com/flvplayer.swf" FlashVars="videoThumb=http://www.godtube.com/thumb/1_14560.jpg&flvPath=http://www.godtube.com/flvideo1/15/14560.flv" wmode="transparent" quality="high" width="330" height="270" name="flv_demo" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></embed><br /><br /><br /><embed src="http://godtube.com/flvplayer.swf" FlashVars="videoThumb=http://www.godtube.com/thumb/1_11884.jpg&flvPath=http://www.godtube.com/flvideo1/9/11884.flv" wmode="transparent" quality="high" width="330" height="270" name="flv_demo" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></embed><br /><br /><br /><embed src="http://godtube.com/flvplayer.swf" FlashVars="videoThumb=http://www.godtube.com/thumb/1_14569.jpg&flvPath=http://www.godtube.com/flvideo1/15/14569.flv" wmode="transparent" quality="high" width="330" height="270" name="flv_demo" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></embed>Jason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-46453137769598653992007-08-27T21:27:00.000-07:002007-08-27T21:37:00.437-07:00Archive(From June 15, 2007)<br />I woke up this morning with a Nyquil hangover. Going to bed last night here in Vanleer Tennessee while leading worship for a student camp, I found my sinuses a bit congested and knowing nothing better to do while being miserable with agitated nasal passages, I resorted to taking the green liquid that knocks you out cold for twelve hours or more. When I awoke, it took me a moment or so to orientate myself within the spinning room, fight back the groggy cobwebs in my mind and slip into a realm of consciousness, and even then, it took nearly a minute or two for the occasion to hit me. And all of a sudden, in the musty confines of a staff housing complex, my mind connected the dots and I realized, “Jason, you’re TWENTY FIVE years old today!” Now I guess most people would shrug it off as just another birthday, but for some reason, this one stands out to me. It’s more than just 25… it's 5 years from 30 and half way to 50! I can remember having friends who were 25 and thinking to myself how good it felt to not be that old, and then I can think back to aunts and uncles turning 30 and it completely weirds me out to think in five short years, I’ll be that age. However, as I’ve walked through the activities of today, I’ve thought about all that’s happened in the past 365 days and I must say, the “Year Of 24" was a good one.<br /><br /><br />Concerning music, I have stayed busier than ever. I’m writing more than I’ve ever written, getting more publishing and artist attention than I’ve ever gotten, and performing on stages I never thought I’d sing from. I have the opportunity to play on a regular basis with some of Nashville’s finest musicians, and I have the honor to call them all friends. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0Fv9K6a8YYGXylgB4TYQWyZWnPAdPopHSs61XW09dytz1gkSzyXNUR2LnjkIkDe4BQS0CyOf1vSqPCfd67o7Md2MC6JcLHT3ngsL4wFJyL3aztNueLrjlu8aL6kdBl-iKYiROmPiPQH4/s1600-h/get-attachment.aspx.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg0Fv9K6a8YYGXylgB4TYQWyZWnPAdPopHSs61XW09dytz1gkSzyXNUR2LnjkIkDe4BQS0CyOf1vSqPCfd67o7Md2MC6JcLHT3ngsL4wFJyL3aztNueLrjlu8aL6kdBl-iKYiROmPiPQH4/s320/get-attachment.aspx.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5103605390558831602" /></a> Just last week, I met up with three of the guys from the band for pizza at a little parlor in Franklin Tennessee and as we sat around the table talking and laughing for three hours, it hit me that just four years ago, I moved to Nashville knowing no one and would have never imagined how quickly I would find myself surrounded by a community of people I treasure so much. Who'd have known a Florida boy could find his place in Tennessee?<br /><br /><br />The year of 24 also brought many surprises in the world of family. Last November, I became an uncle with the birth of Lily Cox, my brother and his wife’s first little girl. She is absolutely beautiful and I must use this occasion to make it known, I never thought something so precious and adorable could come from my big brother who growing up was the bane of my existence. To this day, my body bears the marks of his brutal ways and I still cringe at the thought of concrete stairs and slip-n-slides. I can always thank him for my first introduction to stitches. Yet, I digress.<br /><br /><br />Thinking I was designated to play the role of younger brother my entire life, I was completely surprised when several months ago, my parents informed my brother and I that they were adopting a little girl. I can’t tell you how excited I was. Her name is Brittany and my Mom met her through a mentoring program. After my Dad inquired about her, they both decided they’d pursue the adoption and everything fell perfectly into place. Brittany is a beautiful and unbelievably intelligent eleven year old girl. When I went down this past April to meet her for the first time, I was stunned at how open and unguarded she was. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkZ0ZUjIl-BmtHzsdTcsw5yYDg_V85mx8adKSUfA9XHKsp96GRNA-EdAASftI4SGpNWfVB9bIpjSgGEYUlg0SZR7aJaEMOasf84Zc2i9F9dFz0bgUe7H4Q7Z_MGehYBiS-MbRNgBbBS88/s1600-h/DSCN2643.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhkZ0ZUjIl-BmtHzsdTcsw5yYDg_V85mx8adKSUfA9XHKsp96GRNA-EdAASftI4SGpNWfVB9bIpjSgGEYUlg0SZR7aJaEMOasf84Zc2i9F9dFz0bgUe7H4Q7Z_MGehYBiS-MbRNgBbBS88/s320/DSCN2643.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5103604467140862946" /></a><br />She’s so funny and loving and I can’t wait to play the part of the older brother. Maybe I’ll give her some stitches of her own, or be sitting on the front porch wielding a shot gun when she goes on her first date.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Being 24 brought many life changing moments, but probably the biggest of all was asking Lena Hood to be my wife. I remember living in Jacksonville and thinking, “I bet Mrs. Cox is up there at Belmont University right now just waiting for me to come find her.” and sure enough she was! Here I am, four months from wedding bells and I’m so excited to spend the rest of my life with this girl, born in Alabama, raised in Georgia, now Tennessean. Who’d thought, I’d marry a girl born in Alabama??? I still ponder that one. I always took a liking to brunettes growing up, and God showed me favor when he brought the most gorgeous brunette girl I’ve ever laid eyes on into my life.<br /><br /><br />Lena is an amazing girl. She’s so loving, kind, and warmhearted, and I’m humbled to think that out of everyone in the world, she chose to spend the rest of her life with me. I’m beyond grateful! There’s no one else I’d rather have standing beside me in life than her. In the words of my good friend Cody Deese, Lena is “the wind beneath my wings.” or did he steal that from Whitney Houston?<br /><br /><br />So... 24. Uncle, big brother, and soon to be husband. Can’t wait to see what happens with 25. Maybe I’ll sky dive, write a book, take up the art of finger painting, or make a CD using nothing but a jaw harp and kazoo. No matter what, I’m sure God will leave me scratching my head when it’s all said and done. He’s been unbelievably good to me and I can’t thank him enough for the blessings. Every day I’m amazed at his faithfulness and unfailing love.<br /><br /><br />Hope you’re all having a great June 15th!<br />Much Love,<br />JasonJason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269992500946865298.post-22831025984893011932007-08-27T21:24:00.001-07:002007-08-27T21:26:19.409-07:00Archive<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhnrt-5LZOIFyeR7Sx-Q8wXFQmW0WUwacJkcU88Ov3W-VONSJYswEk3yARWtrKhQxyOIOtbNI8VnXBZVnV3UH2Nmb3M-5XQbm4HsW7XA6Ro84hwwskKkHvsbtXCmwVPTH8vzgrJx_25sw/s1600-h/Lena.jpg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhnrt-5LZOIFyeR7Sx-Q8wXFQmW0WUwacJkcU88Ov3W-VONSJYswEk3yARWtrKhQxyOIOtbNI8VnXBZVnV3UH2Nmb3M-5XQbm4HsW7XA6Ro84hwwskKkHvsbtXCmwVPTH8vzgrJx_25sw/s320/Lena.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5103602993967080386" /></a><br />(From September 1, 2006)<br />Speeding After Midnight…<br /><br />I was reading this morning through the first couple chapters of Ephesians when I ran upon a couple verses that are no stranger to those of us born and raised in the Bible belt. I can recall as a child many times in Sunday school standing in front of a room full of students, awkwardly reciting this passage, from which I would gain a reward wrapped in shiny foil and made from sugary goodness to applaud my effort at both memorizing and reciting this timeless verse. The verse I’m speaking of is Ephesians 2:8-9. For by grace you are saved through faith; and not of yourselves. It is the gift of God. Not of works, least any man should boast. These words are no doubt, quite imperative and crucial to the theological make up of our faith. And why would I discuss this?<br /><br />This is Lena. For those of you who don’t know, she is my girl friend! Beautiful isn’t she? I swear, that’s not a picture taken from some random magazine you’d pay $3.99 for while passing through your local Kroger check out line. (Don’t ask why I know the exact price of those magazines!) And if you’re from the south… You can replace Kroger with the following: Publix, Win Dixie, or the really southern, Food Lion.<br /><br /><br />Lena and I have been dating for over a year now. We met at Belmont University where we were both music majors. I graduated last December, and she has just started her last year, hoping to graduate in May of 07. The events of last night have come to emphasize and reinforce the scripture I read this morning.<br /><br /><br /><br />We had met another couple for a late dinner at a local steak house. After eating one amazing ribeye and drinking countless glasses of un-sweet tea, I retired to my car and Lena retired to hers, both heading home. About thirty minutes later, I’m sitting in front of my computer checking emails, when I get a call. It is nearly midnight at this point when I say hello and find a frantic girl friend on the other end of the line. Come to find out, Lena had been doing 47 in a 35. Now this is unusual for her… she is commonly known for going ten or fifteen under the limit. You know… one of those drivers that have a mile of cars lined up single file behind her in the left hand lane of the freeway. Yep, I date her! She’s great, I promise! So anyways, at 22 years old, last night was the first time she’s ever been pulled over. This is where the hysteria sets in.<br /><br /><br />In Georgia, when you’re pulled over, they run your tag and the computer tells them whether or not you have car insurance. However, in Tennessee, you must have proof of insurance in your car. Either paper work or one of those flimsy laminated cards they send you in the mail. I get a call from Lena, and she’s rapidly discussing how she’s been pulled over, and all I hear in the back ground are papers flying and compartments of cars being furiously open and shut. Lena and I had just watched something somewhere that had talked about people being taken to jail for no proof of insurance, so she was quite upset to say the least. I did my best to tell her everything would be alright, then she told me she was going to call her mom, and then, and I quote “if you don’t hear back from me in thirty minutes, call my phone.” Implying, she’d be handcuffed and taken to jail before she was able to call back. So… we hung up.<br /><br /><br />About fifteen minutes later, I get a call from Lena. (Thankfully, it wasn’t an unidentified number from a dilapidated state penitentiary some where in the back woods of Tennessee.) Come to find out, during the process of Lena explaining to the officer through tears how she’s a college student, and the norms of running car insurance in Georgia, the police man discovered she was a vocal student at Belmont. It was with this information that he decided to make a deal with her. At midnight, in the middle of a suburban complex, in Music City U.S.A., she stepped out of her car, and into the black sky, and the mouth piece of a police issued walkie talkie, my girl friend, beautiful, sweet, and caring, sang the entire version of Patsy Cline’s “Walking After Midnight” at the top of her voice for residents and the entire Nashville Metro Police Department to hear. I think the police officer was stunned, because I and many other people know; Lena can pull off an almost identical Patsy Cline impersonation.<br /><br /><br />And while Lena more than likely perfected the performance, I never knew embarrassment could be transferred so well through someone’s voice. When she called me back, through her words, I could see her red face, hands shaking, and knees knocking. While extremely embarrassing, she got out of a speeding ticket, and forwent the luxury of a ride downtown in the back of a caged police car. (Although, I’m still not convinced they arrest people for not having an insurance card.)<br /><br /><br />All that to say… I am glad that though found in the wrong, without hope, and in need of something far greater than we could ever provide ourselves, God through his Son made a way, and in a true example of love, gave himself and his life, and asked only in return that we trust and believe on and in him. I’m thankful that salvation does not require me to keep a list of all I do well and all I do wrong, or how many times I think a negative thought as opposed to a positive one. Or in this case, stand before millions and sing Willie Nelsons On The Road Again to escape eternal hell. God only asks for a relationship, and in this relationship, I experience his loving kindness on a daily basis.<br /><br /><br />Go find your insurance card!<br />Much Love,<br />JasonJason Coxhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04516783481080007287noreply@blogger.com0
