"Over the past 55 years, that small outreach has grown into an international ministry discipling millions through Scripture," Precept wrote on social media. "Through television, radio, writing, and speaking, God has used Kay to transform millions of lives across the world. Including ours."

The late author wrote hundreds of books and Bible studies that have impacted millions.

Arthur's conversion to Christ came after suffering a divorce from her first husband, Tom Goetz, at 29 years old, Crosswalk reports.

She described that time as "a period of great personal hardship that the Lord later mended and used to prepare her for ministry."

The Precept co-founder then attended Tennessee Temple University in Chattanooga, where she met missionary Jack Arthur. The two married and then served as missionaries in Mexico.

The couple later returned to the states with their new baby, David, and began having Bible studies in their home.

In 2020, she was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease, but continued her work with Precept until her death.

"She will be dearly missed, but we rejoice knowing that she is whole and made new in the presence of her Maker," the post added.

Hundreds of tributes have poured in online.

Actress and author Priscilla Shirer honored the Bible teacher on Instagram, writing, "Thank you for everything Ms. Kay. Welcome Home."

Evangelist Greg Laurie wrote, "Kay lived a godly life. She loved to study the Bible—and even more than that, she loved encouraging others to study it too. She was a real gem—gracious, wise, and deeply committed to the truth of God's Word.

"She will be missed," he added.

Renowned Christian author Lee Strobel wrote," The incomparable Kay Arthur graduated into glory today. A life well lived!"

Tony Perkins, president of the Family Research Council, says his life was impacted by Arthur's ministry.

"Kay Arthur's love for the Word of God has been an inspiration. She was a great encouragement to me personally, especially in my early days at FRC," he wrote. "A true blessing to the Body of Christ, she faithfully advanced the Kingdom of God!"

Arthur is survived by her three sons, nine grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. Her husband, Jack, died in 2017.
