About Decision Point 

We are an evangelical non-profit that exists to proclaim the gospel to the next generation. We focus on equipping, sending and reaching students on their school campus and online. Browse through our website atDecisionPoint.org to learn more about what we do. 

The Call from Decision Point on Vimeo.

Expanding the Mission and Advancing the GospelDecision Point is currently active in 17 areas and partnering with churches and mobilizing students for campus outreach. We desire to see this number grow to 25 areas by 2027, and through our online coaching program, we hope to coach students far beyond that. We have seen that coaching a few schools in a local area today can lead to long-term ministry being established for years to come. 

In the next four years we are praying we will see:

• 10,000 students say, “I have decided to witness for Christ!”
• 1,000 churches say, “I have decided to mobilize our students to witness for Christ!” 
• 10,000 people to say, “I have decided to pray for and financially support this ministry.”

We believe that by God’s grace this will result in:

• 25 strategic cities served by Decision Point campus ministry in their communities
• 1,000 campuses impacted by the Student Leaders deployed by Decision Point
• 2.5 million students given the gospel on campus or online

We pray that the Lord will continue expanding the mission - coast-to-coast,
border to border and beyond - till every student has heard.

Fundraising and Salary

As a distinctive part of this role, Decision Point is a non-profit ministry where every member of our staff is involved in fundraising for both financial and prayer support. And we think that’s a really good thing!

Just like missionaries about to be sent across the world, your first assignment on Decision Point staff will be to personally contact churches, friends and family and gather a team of partners to monthly invest in the ministry that God is leading you into. We’ll give you tons of training, encouragement and ongoing coaching. If you like everything else and feel like this could be a good fit for you, do not let fundraising stop you; let’s talk first.

Will you come help save the next generation? 

You may still have a lot of questions. You may still be praying about whether God is calling you to this mission. That’s ok! Let’s talk. Just fill out the short form and we’ll be in touch to get the conversation started!
