Profile
On April 1, 2000, eight persons from different parts of the country
met together with Bob & Diane Vereen at the YMCA International,
Mumbai to consider ways and means of introducing inductive Bible
Study in India. It was resolved to put in all out efforts to popularise
the inductive method throughout the country and to arrange for the
registration of Precept Ministries Society of India as a Charitable
Trust. The Trust was registered on 28th August 2000.
PMSI is affiliated to Precept Ministries International, which provides
study materials and training.
About PM International
In the late 60s, a missionary couple suffered medical problems
and returned home to Chattanooga, U.S.A. Little did they know that
God finally had them right where He wanted them. Jack Arthur became
the Station Manager for a Christian radio station. And Kay Arthur
started a Bible study for teenagers in their living room. By 1970,
the teens were meeting in a barn they had cleaned out and patched
up themselves.
Soon adults were coming, too. And it was obvious that an expanded
ministry centre needed to be constructed. That's when Jack left
his radio career and became President and leader of this flourishing
new organisation.
Precept Ministries International has grown to become a trans-denominational
organisation dedicated to the sole purpose of teaching people to
study God's Word for themselves and apply its truths to their daily
lives. This is achieved through the inductive study method, a highly
effective way of seeking out answers and understanding Scripture.
Through thought-provoking materials, Precept is working to establish
people in God's Word all over the world. Today, Precept Ministries
International reaches around the world into over 100 countries.
It is hard to believe that all this could come from a ministry that
once met in a barn. But after all, our Lord's ministry began in
a manger.
