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 at DecisionPoint.Decision 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.
We have recently launched our new four-year campaign, I Have Decided.  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.”
