Data and Donor Specialist Decision Point

Decision Point is an evangelical nonprofit ministry dedicated to proclaiming the gospel to the next generation. We focus on equipping, sending, and reaching students on their school campuses and online. Through partnerships with local churches, student leaders, and communities across the country, we help students become courageous witnesses for Christ among their peers. Today, Decision Point serves students across the United States and beyond.

We are actively expanding the mission through both local campus ministry and online
coaching initiatives.

We believe the next generation desperately needs the hope of the gospel. It is Jesus alone who can save and set them free. We are working to see every student at every school have the opportunity to hear the gospel before they graduate. We believe God can use young people as an unstoppable force for the gospel. That’s why, when we look to the future, we’re praying a big prayer:
What if we could mobilize 1 million young courageous witnesses for Christ?
