Our desire + His vision = Juja Java: Jesus offers a new vision of family
http://jujajava.blogspot.com/2009/01/jesus-offers-new-vision-of-family.html
Our desire His vision = Juja Java. Two hearts united in Kenya. God's heart beating on Juja Road. And our journey to reconciling the two. Thursday, January 22, 2009. Jesus offers a new vision of family. From the start, B and I have been praying this dream would be carried out through us, but that it would not for a moment become about us. We long to please our Father in Heaven. We solely seek to glorify Him. That reoccurring question continued to pop up in my mind. What does that mean, God? And so my hear...

Our desire + His vision = Juja Java: February 2009
http://jujajava.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Our desire His vision = Juja Java. Two hearts united in Kenya. God's heart beating on Juja Road. And our journey to reconciling the two. Monday, February 9, 2009. It has been an exciting past couple of weeks for Erin and I. On this path towards Juja Java, we have found ourselves again and again longing to return to the country of Kenya, the birthplace of our dream. This longing has slowly overtaken us. And it has overtaken us to the point of action, to the point of pursuit. More looks like taking picture...

Our desire His vision = Juja Java. Two hearts united in Kenya. God's heart beating on Juja Road. And our journey to reconciling the two. Sunday, January 11, 2009. This week was grand in the world of Juja Java. Erin spent five days in Atlanta with me. We journeyed to my favorite corners of the city. We fellowshipped with the best of those around us. We experienced a little bit more of what life will look like when we live in the same city. There is so much more I could say about our time together. Therefo...

Write the Vision: Meet... My Father
http://christiecox.blogspot.com/2011/06/meet-my-father.html
Sunday, June 19, 2011. What better way to start off this blog series than with the most influential man in my life, Mark Cox. And on the most appropriate day of the year: Father's Day. Who is this man? Not sure if it ever actually worked but I liked to think it did. When so many of my friends are without fathers or with lousy fathers who don't take their role seriously, why would I ever push away one of the greatest father figures this world could contain? And not to reject. That was insightful and revea...

Write the Vision: March 2011
http://christiecox.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, March 23, 2011. I'm really afraid this post will not even come close to conveying what actually happened during my spring break this year, but I hope somehow my words can formulate a little of all that was experienced. There was a reason for why God chose to invade our spring break like He did. I don't want it to be in vain and even when the emotion and feeling has died away I want to continue cultivating a deeper relationship with Christ and also with the incredible friends He has blessed...

Write the Vision: April 2013
http://christiecox.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 18, 2013. Fear, Love, and Forsakenness. The lesson was a continuation from a two-part lesson on "What does it mean to love? The first part was an overview of 1 Corinthians 13- the infamous passage on love. I had so many amazing discoveries in that as well. But this one was a little different. After a few verses in 1 John 3 we moved on to 1 John 4:18-19:. The original Greek word for "casts out". For fear has to do with punishment.". Fear is directly related to the absence of God in our liv...

Write the Vision: August 2009
http://christiecox.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 1, 2009. If you are a typical human being, you will experience at least several monumental moments over the course of your life. The first day of school. Learning to ride a bike. Graduating High School. Getting married. Having a baby. These are what we would call milestones. Every person has them, big or small, public or private. This is what we tell ourselves, and even if we never consciously think those thoughts, society has us believing that if anyone ever knew we went to counseling, ...

Our desire + His vision = Juja Java: December 2008
http://jujajava.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Our desire His vision = Juja Java. Two hearts united in Kenya. God's heart beating on Juja Road. And our journey to reconciling the two. Thursday, December 25, 2008. In the wheat field. It has been quite a whirlwind in the realm of the Juja Java dream lately. Titus and I took an adventure journey to the land of Oz (Kansas) two weekends ago. I posted a little bit about that. On my own blog. Now it is time to record more thoughts on our blog. And in both of these new worlds- my relationships and my dream- ...
