Alan speaks at churches, events, and conferences on the call of the church and uniting Christians centered on God's word. He is a member of NGA (Next Generation Alliance) a network of evangelists started by the Luis Palau ministry, ordained through AEA (American Evangelistic Association) and a member of the PEN Network (Proclamation Evangelism Network) a part of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. His passion is to share the gospel message with as many people as possible and encourage the ongoing work of evangelism and missions in fulfilling Acts 1:8 "But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

When Alan speaks, it's from his heart and his call is to reach the lost. Alan is available to speak to your church or organization, at your event or conference about the ministries of LifeLight, and to share the Gospel of Christ.

Dave Decker Jr - Outreach & Discipleship Pastor
 Dave Decker Jr
Dave has served with LifeLight Communications in various ways over the last eight years, volunteering most of those years with the Souled Out stage with everything from building skate ramps and setting up security fences to booking bands and running the stage. Dave has fully enjoyed the music, but it is the heart of the people there that really keeps him coming back. Working with artists & youth leaders and hearing their stories over the years, Dave has seen the toll that ministry can take on them, and also runs a ministry called LightsOut designed to serve those who serve 'under the lights.' 
Being a full-time youth pastor for the past 15+ years has given Dave a wide array of experience leading mission trips, speaking at camps & retreats, and also working day-to-day on staff in a local church setting.  Dave's love for students, and for helping connect those students with a lifestyle of following Jesus that transcends the mere routine of living Sunday to Sunday, is evident in the way he lives his life. An avid outdoor adventurist, Dave loves mountain biking, rock climbing, snowboarding, camping, and tinkering to keep his old bomber '83 CJ-7 Jeep running. Dave has a family of three wonderful children (his daughter, pictured above, loves to dance) and a smart and wonderful wife of 14 years.  Dave can come speak at your next summer camp, retreat, team-building excercise, church service, or other event.
