Beloved Bible Teacher and Author, Kay Arthur, Dies at 91
Beloved Bible teacher, profile author, and Precept founder Kay Arthur passed away on Tuesday May 20. She was 91. A notice posted to her Facebook page reads:
Our beloved cofounder, Kay Arthur, went to be with the Lord this morning, May 20, 2025. In the late 1960s, Kay and her husband, Jack, started leading Bible studies from their living room. Over the past 55 years, that small outreach has grown into an international ministry discipling millions through Scripture. Through television, radio, writing, and speaking, God has used Kay to transform millions of lives across the world. Including ours.
We are so grateful for Kay’s gifts and her obedience to God’s call on her life. Her heart for God’s gospel is reflected in the mission of her ministry to this day: engaging people in relationship with God through knowing His Word.
Join us as we thank God for the life of His daughter, Kay, and ask Him to comfort the family and friends she has left behind. She will be dearly missed, but we rejoice knowing that she is whole and made new in the presence of her Maker.
“…the people who know their God will display strength and take action” Daniel 11:32b NASB
An obituary on the Precept website likewise reads in part:
Arthur and her husband (Frank) served as independent missionaries in Mexico where their son, David, was born. After leaving the mission field, they settled back in Chattanooga, where Arthur started leading Bible studies for teenagers in their living room. The study group started as a small gathering but grew to what is known today as Precept, which serves nearly 190 countries in more than 110 languages. From 1999–2019, Arthur hosted Precepts for Life™, a syndicated Bible study teaching program that broadcasted to more than 30 countries and reached over 75 million households. The program was twice recognized as the Best Television Teaching Program by The National Religious Broadcasters.
Arthur’s commitment to the Lord and her desire to teach others how to study the Bible impacted millions of people around the world. She was a four-time Evangelical Christian Publishers Association Gold Medallion Award-winning author, recipient of ECPA’s Pinnacle Award, recipient of the National Religious Broadcasters Hall of Fame Award and Lifetime Achievement award, recipient of an Honorary Doctorate of Humane Letters from Tennessee Temple University for her outstanding biblical knowledge, and an Honorary Doctorate of Divinity from Piedmont International University. Kay was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease in 2020 but continued to serve as part of Precept until her death.
Kay is survived by her three sons, Tom Goetz, Mark Goetz, and David Arthur (Margaret); nine grandchildren, Meg Day (John), Joseph Goetz, and Daniel Goetz; John Goetz (Whitney), Ryan Goetz and Alexandra Goetz; Jesse Callahan (Zach), Abigail Edens (Robert), and Ann Arthur; and seven great-grandchildren.

Kay Arthur’s, with no seminary degree, was a profound Bible teacher. My most enriching education was not my university degree but sitting under her teaching as she brought the Bible to life. Learning to study the Bible for myself changed my life. Her Precept study materials are the best in the world, and if you want to learn the Bible without “denomination bias,” letting Scripture interpret Scripture, get online and find out where there is a Precept Bible Study near you! Kay’s spiritual children will “rise up and call her, ‘blessed.’”
In 2019, I began experiencing symptoms of Parkinson’s disease, which was diagnosed in 2021. Among my severe symptoms were tremors, difficulty walking, weakness throughout my body, and stiffness and rigidity. My meds only provided temporary relief, so I decided to try other approaches and started the PD-5 treatment program from uinehealth centre . n et. With the help of this therapy regimen, I have seen significant improvements in my walking, balance, tremors, and appetite, and I have resumed my guitar playing again and sign my name as I had before Parkinson’s. I am incredibly grateful.
