CONCOXIONS STAFF

Bill Cox is widely recognized as a leader in creative and effective ministry. He is the director of Concoxions, a unique ministry organization he founded in 1979 originally as Bill Cox Abundant Life Ministries, Inc. Bill also served as associate director of the South Carolina Baptist Convention Evangelism Department from 1985 to 1991 and as minister to youth at Taylors First Baptist Church in Greenville, SC from 1975 to 1980.

Bill has written, produced, and presented numerous multi-media, chalk drawing, video, and puppetry presentations that have been featured along with his speaking in regional, state, and national conferences across the country. He is also an author, editor, musician, composer, and producer. Bill wrote, produced, and directed “A Peace of ’72 - The Greatest Story Ever Retold” that received widespread acclaim during its 90-show run at Fantasy Harbour in Myrtle Beach.

As Youth Evangelism Director for the South Carolina Baptist Convention, Bill’s responsibilities included directing state summer youth conferences, Evangelympics regional youth conferences, and That Big Youth Thing at the Coliseum state youth rally and concert; all of which experienced tremendous growth and popularity during his five and a half year tenure. Upon Bill’s resignation, in an unprecedented arrangement, Concoxions was contracted by the convention to continue planning, promoting, and directing these ministries. He directed Evangelympics and That Big Youth Thing at the Coliseum and additional five years and concluded leadership of the summer youth conferences after 12 years.

Concoxions conferences currently directed by Bill include Chillipepper and Seesalt.
