God, Are You There?

by Kay Arthur

Popular teacher and speaker Kay Arthur has developed a study specifically for those who are unfamiliar with the Bible.  It introduces readers not only to God's Word but to the God of the Word. In this exciting study, Kay Arthur takes readers by the hand, gently leading them through the Gospel of John and introducing the inductive method of study.  Readers will come away with solid, tested Bible study methods and an understanding of who God is and how to know Him better. God, Are You There? is a life-changing adventure into a beloved gospel.  It's easy to use—a "quick-start" program for anyone new to the truths of God's Word or for a group needing just the right number of lessons.

About the author

Kay Lee Arthur was an American Christian author, Bible teacher, and co-founder of Precept Ministries International. Renowned for her accessible and inductive approach to Bible study, she helped millions engage deeply with Scripture. Arthur began her ministry informally, teaching teenagers in her living room alongside her second husband, Jack Arthur. Their work soon grew into a global outreach, headquartered in Chattanooga, Tennessee, under the name Precept Ministries International. She hosted the daily Bible teaching program Precepts for Life and became a respected voice in evangelical circles. Arthur authored numerous books and was a four-time winner of the ECPA Christian Book Award for titles such as A Marriage Without Regrets and The New Inductive Study Bible. Her ministry was rooted in a personal reawakening to faith in the early 1960s, following a divorce and a return to religious life. She and Jack also served briefly as missionaries in Mexico before founding their ministry. Arthur remained active in public faith-based initiatives into her later years and was known for her firm stances on social issues. She passed away on 2025 leaving behind a lasting legacy in Christian education and publishing.

Well, I have the inductive study method a shot and , while I can see the appeal for some, it’s not for me. The book had some good ideas, but ultimately, it is not something I am going to adopt.

This was the first Bible Study that I did in about 5 years. It was ok. I don't care for all the highlighting. But it does help with understanding who is telling what. I still do highlight timestamps and locations.

Great study on the gospel of John for anyone new or seasoned in the faith. Find out God's purpose and meaning for your life, how to live each day, and God's promises to love and care for you.

I read this as a teenager.
