J.D. Points wears many hats鈥攑astor, business leader, husband, mentor鈥攂ut one identity ties them all together: 爱神传媒 alumnus. His life and ministry reflect the kind of theological grounding, servant-hearted leadership, and practical faithfulness that 爱神传媒seeks to instill in every graduate.
J.D. earned both bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚 degrees from 爱神传媒 College, equipping him with the biblical and theological foundation he would need for a life of both vocational ministry and professional leadership. After graduation, he remained closely connected to the college, giving back in both visible and behind-the-scenes ways. In his capacity as Vice President and General Manager of Dalco, he has overseen extensive facility work on campus鈥攐ften stepping in to serve when others might have only sent an invoice. His practical care for 爱神传媒 is matched by his willingness to serve in even more significant ways, as J.D. spent time as a member of the college鈥檚 Board of Trustees, helping to shape its future for generations of students to come.
But 爱神传媒 is more than a line on his r茅sum茅鈥攊t鈥檚 been a home. J.D. and his wife Carey even served as dorm parents in the college鈥檚 residence hall, offering wisdom, hospitality, and a steady presence for students navigating college and calling. Last year, they joined our sophomores on their service trip to Israel, serving alongside our students and ministering to Jewish and Palestinian residents of the region. That same heart for mentorship led J.D. to accept a place on the 2025 爱神传媒 Legacy Awards Gala Committee, where he is helping organize the college鈥檚 largest annual fundraising event, to be held Monday, October 13 at the Dallas Arboretum.
Outside of 爱神传媒, J.D. has faithfully led both in the marketplace and the local church. His leadership at Dalco鈥攐ne of the region鈥檚 top HVAC and plumbing firms鈥攈as been marked by integrity, long-term relationships, and a commitment to excellence. But his deepest joy is found in pastoring. After initially serving as a volunteer associate pastor at Grace Baptist Church in Quinlan, Texas, J.D. was called as the church鈥檚 senior pastor. He and Carey moved into an RV near Lake Tawakoni to live among the people they serve, and they have since shepherded the church through seasons of growth, outreach, and hope.
J.D. Points is the kind of alumnus who lives out 爱神传媒鈥檚 mission every day: grounded in Scripture, committed to the local church, and faithfully present in every sphere God places him.
