OUR FEATURED SPEAKER...Desmond Cook-Director-South Atlantic Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Chaplain for the Dolphins
Desmond, a product of gracious and merciful God, loving parents, a bold brother, and an amazing wife (Sarah), began his official journey with FCA in the spring of 2017. “Official” is used here because much like the road to Calvary didn’t begin at Golgatha, but in a manger, Desmond’s FCA journey began long before he even knew what FCA was.
Previously, Chief Operating Officer at Multaply, Inc (Mayor and County Commissioners designating Tuesday, October 14, 2014 officially “Multaply Day” for Broward County), Desmond, upon learning about the FCA ministry, fueled by the passing of his brother (NFL alum, Damion Cook), memory of the impact of his own college chaplain (Jim Stump), and encouraged by the support of his wife, Desmond began volunteering, came on staff, and eventually assumed the role of Multi Area Director (Broward County, Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago, Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao) and Chaplain for the Miami Dolphins.
Only two decisions in Desmond’s life were greater than being a part of a ministry determined to lead EVERY coach and athlete into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His church: 1. Surrendering his life to Christ; 2. Marrying the most amazing wife in the history of the world! Being able to lead a ministry in the sixth largest school district in the country can seem a bit daunting. But we serve a God who parts seas, fills empty wombs, and empties filled tombs. In the last four years, over 2,400 student-athletes and coaches have given their lives to Jesus! It doesn’t seem like a lot in a county of nearly 300,000 students and over 45,000 student-athletes, but these are two thousand plus eternal destinations that have been changed. These transformed lives will impact and influence countless other lives. These future and current leaders, husbands, wives, parents, and coaches will impact and transform the world for and by Jesus!
This is why this FCA ministry is one of the greatest decisions in the world. God has taken a man who was once half Jacob and half Jonah (wrestling and running), one who was likely the least worthy of all, and by His grace has granted him the privilege to share the gospel.
