Point University, a nondenominational Christian college founded in 1937, grew out of the hopes and dreams of a group of Christian leaders who were a part of Christian churches in Georgia and the Southeast. Today, the student body is comprised of students who come from a wide array of evangelical backgrounds. The University continues to be supported by congregations like those who were a part of its founding and who are committed to being "Christians only, not the only Christians." Point continues to thrive as a center of Christian learning because of the faithful support of individual Christians, missions ministries in local churches, and other interested groups who believe that the idea of a nondenominational Christian college is an important kingdom activity.
