Jim Cook

Ministry Advocate

(800) 409-6631 x 8

I absolutely love leading others into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ!  I love life!

Basic Stuff: I was born in upstate New York, but moved south when I was a teenager - they say there are names for people like me... I graduated from a Christian university with a degree in Accounting. After college, I moved to Atlanta and gained much experience working for one of the large public accounting firms. I found while working at the firm that besides the ability to speak CFO, I have a knack for developing relationships and leading teams! I was able to use those skills at several high technology firms in Atlanta. I learned I loved God, people and technology! I married an amazing woman in 1993 and have 4 incredible daughters.  Out of a desire to spend more time with my family, I moved back to my hometown of Greenville, South Carolina and work for the same Christian University I received my degree from. I get to use my God given talents to serve thousands of college young people as we seek to spread the incredible good news of the saving love of Jesus! With Church Plant Media I get to share my love for the Gospel and technology! Perfect!

Education: Bachelor of Science in Accounting from Bob Jones University
