Grace to India is privileged to offer rich and reliable study materials to anyone in India interested in in-depth Bible study. We provide John MacArthur's audio-taped sermons recorded live as he preaches to his own local church ( Grace Community Church ).
New tapes and books by Dr. MacArthur are added to our libraries regularly. Our main office is in Pune, and at present we have three distribution centers in the twin cities of Hyderabad-Secunderabad , Chennai, and Cochin .
As believers, committed to God and walking in obedience to Him, we affirm that the purpose of Grace to India is to teach biblical truth with clarity, taking advantage of various means of mass communications to expand the sphere of John MacArthur's teaching ministry.
We use mass communications media to expose John's teaching to as wide an audience as possible, "for the equipping of the saints for the work of service, to the building up of the body of Christ; until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ" (Ephesians 4:12-13).
One of our principal tasks is to protect believers from being "tossed here and there by waves, and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, by craftiness in deceitful scheming" (v. 14). We accept the God-given responsibility of "speaking the truth in love" (v. 15) and strive for the growth of the church and glory of the Lord, rather than the praise and honour of men.
Our role is not to supplant the local church's ministry, but to support it by providing additional resources for those hungering for the truth of God's Word. Media ministries can never substitute for involvement in a biblical church, group Bible study, or interaction with a teacher. Yet we sense the need for more in-depth resources, evidenced by the many Christians and Christian leaders world-wide who depend on our ministry to supplement their own study.
Our desire is that God be glorified by the teaching of His Word through Grace to India 's tapes and publications. The Lord Jesus is the Head of the ministry, and we desire to perform our work as unto Him, to reflect Him to all those we encounter, and to operate not in our own strength but through His power (Philippians 4:13).
