Invite publishes people, not products.

Our goal is to create a better publishing experience. 

We emphasize partnership and collaboration, seek to help authors discover and develop their ministry message through the publishing process, and are committed to putting real resources into the successful marketing of both individual books and the long-term personal development of the author. 

 


 

You're a thought leader.

You have a message to share. We want to help.

We are committed to collaborating with you to produce and/or distribute a variety of media to convey your message, including beautiful, well-written books, podcasts, video content, and more.

Our goal is to help you cultivate and grow your message. We envision an ecosystem of leading-edge thought leadership in which every Invite authors benefits from a virtuous cycle of mutual support and encouragement.

 


 

Rev. Jimmy Decker began his career as a government software tester for Accenture before moving into systems analysis in the healthcare industry. During this tenure, he felt a calling to military ministry and began pursuing ordination through United Methodist Church. He attended Perkins School of Theology with the hopes of becoming a military chaplain. His ADHD diagnosis medically disqualified him for military service, and he instead joined the staff of St Andrew in Plano. Being ordained in 2019, he has served as the Pastor of Worship and Pastor of Adult Ministries. He now holds the role of Pastor of Connectional Ministry, overseeing discipleship and spiritual development for children, student, and adult ministries. A graduate of Texas A&M, he is an avid football watcher, and cherishes time with his wife, Kristin, and two-year-old son, Max, most in life.
