ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
INTRODUCTION
Our training continues to be focussed mainly online with some in-person training events, including to Yorkshire Camps, the Oasis of Love Christian Centre in London and Neath Gospel Hall. Ministry to men has continued to grow this year.
We have continued to offer regular online Bible study courses, training and leader meetings. Our social media presence has continued to grow and we now have 4,500 followers on our YouTube channel, up from 3,070 a year ago and up from 2,400 2 years ago. Having launched the Precept Training Pathway (PTP) in July 2024 we have seen a steady increase in those undergoing the courses offered. The PTP is an online training platform offered at no charge to teach people how to study the Bible and how to lead Bible study class discussions.
This year, we had orders from 40 different countries (a 9% decrease on the previous year) . There were 294 orders in total (an 18% decrease on the year before).
We have continued working flexibly from home and in the office.
REACHING THE NEXT GENERATION
Yorkshire Camps
3
One of the highlights of the year was being invited back to Yorkshire Camps to train their camp leaders how to study the Word. Comments from the training included, ‘ Was so nice to be fully focussed on Bible teaching ,’….. ‘ the meeting times were simple and easy to follow yet were challenging enough to make me think and put hard work in,’………. ‘It has made studying the Bible so much more enjoyable and a task I finally understand on a deeper level ,’ and ‘ I have had a great weekend and would do it all over again in a heartbeat. ’
It was so encouraging to see Lois at the camp who joins our regular online Monday night study for young adults. She was keen so show us on her IPad how she is using what she is learning on different passages.
Yorkshire Camps 2025 – a very encouraging and fun time with young adults

Weekly Young Adults Bible Study
This year we gained a new cohort of 16-20 year olds joining us every Monday evening. We have two co-leaders and together we train these 12 young adults to lead these studies with the aim to encourage and equip them to reach their own generation. This we have studied ‘How Do You Know God is Your Father’ and ‘The Essentials of Effective Prayer’.
TRAINING IN CHURCHES
Oasis of Love Christian Centre – London
Pastor Adebayo contacted Precept UK having seen us online and hosted a training at his London church on 7 March 2025. We presented the basics of inductive study and completed Lesson 1 of 40 Min ‘Jesus Understanding His Death and Resurrection.’ We continued to study the remaining 5 lessons of the 40 Min on Friday nights leading up to Easter.
Adebayo and Agatha Molly
The congregation studying
In between our weekly meetings we had them complete a different lightning study each week. The feedback at the end of the course was extremely encouraging including:
“ The material was well structured, easy to follow and highly informative. The study was steered with sensitivity and the clear aim of developing in us the confidence to lead sessions by the end of the course .”
“ I've learnt so much - slowing down and asking questions about the text. Thinking about context etc. The list is endless .”
Neath Gospel Hall Community – Wales
Once again, we returned to Wales to by hosted by Andrew and Alison Blackler, our Precept UK prayer coordinator. They pray for us and value the ministry.

Gateway Church, West Bromwich
Michael (Pastor of Gateway West Brom) has been leading a group of 30 people through, “LORD Teach Me to Study the Bible in 28 Days” . Michael found the Precept Training Pathway “Essential Foundations” course so invaluable that he made it a pre-requisite for each person in attendance, so that they could truly grasp the value of the Precept inductive study method for themselves.
Gateway Church, West Bromwich
INTERNATIONAL MEETINGS
Precept Western Europe
We met with other Western European Precept Directors in Sicily for a week of strategy, planning and fellowship. We also completed a study on Spiritual Gifts. It was an excellent week to share best practice, and garner ideas on how to help grow God’s kingdom through Precept.
Out of our meetings the Lord led us to plan an international youth camp partnering with Capernwray, UK in July 2026. er 2 - zs Penal 2 j =

The second meeting we had with European directors was in Warsaw, Poland from 3-7 November.
We discussed the Precept Leader Academy programme and how effective it has been and where improvements can be made. The PLA trains leaders in the different Precept study materials.
DEATH OF OUR FOUNDER MRS KAY ARTHUR
On 20 May 2026 our founder, Mrs Kay Arthur died. News of her death spread far and wide. Kay Arthur set up Precept with her husband Jack in 1970. Since then the ministry has grown around the world to be in over 190 countries. We have hosted Kay on teaching tours to the UK over the years. Her memorial service was live streamed and her son David spoken passionately about his mother’s life and legacy. Many will miss her insightful, brilliant teaching, her love of the Lord Jesus Christ, and her love for people of all ages and backgrounds. She truly was a servant of Christ, used mightily for His purposes and glory.
PRECEPT LEADER ACADEMY (PLA)
We ran one PLA course ‘Learn to Lead, Lead to Inspire’; in April. We studied the book of Nehemiah using our ‘In &Out’ series We learnt valuable lessons about Biblical leadership and how to lead these studies.

Jo commented “ I Kay said : “ I am Gyongi remarked : pray that God would encouraged to pray for “ I need to be bold raise up men to our group members to to persevere and leadership in Tralee develop a hunger for keep going in what Baptist Church to God’s word.

PRECEPT BIBLE SCHOOLS (PBS)
The purpose of the PBS is 3-fold:
-
To be equipped to know God better
-
To be encouraged as we study with others
-
To be established in the Word of God
In February we spent a marvellous 4 days on Zoom in God’s Word.
We walked through Jude’s New Testament letter.
We had one person join us from the USA as well as people from across the UK– see map.
We invited Georg Huber, Director of Precept in German speaking Europe to lead Days 1 and 2 of Lesson 1 on Structuring.
Georg explained it clearly and concisely and his teaching was very well received by all participants.
Comments received from this PBS included:
Hannah : “ I always leave with a renewed desire to live for God and hunger for His Word. As I spend more time in His Word, I desire to know Him better. I find it really helpful to have a group around me for a few days so that I see other insights but also have the skills taught to me afresh or new ones to incorporate. I am always challenged to slow down when studying the Bible! That is not my personality, so I need reminding to do that. Having four days to do it is a treat .”
Andy : “ Very challenging. It has shown afresh the relevance of OT stories in teaching us about the human heart and how, sadly, things don't change. The problems of the early church mirrored the problems of Israel and we are still making the same mistakes. Studying Jude has helped me think of what type of church member I want to be and also challenged me on the type of leadership I am part of. What example am I setting for younger generations? How am I helping them navigate the Christian life and draw closer to Jesus ?”
9
We completed a 3-day Precept Bible School studying PUP Esther over the period 16-18 May 2025. We had people join us on Zoom from across the UK, the USA and South Africa.
Comments about the course were encouraging:
Harry : “It has helped me to read the book of Esther in a new exciting way. It brought to life a story I thought I was so familiar with but now I see things I’ve not seen before . I loved how we see the clear faith of Mordecai and Esther throughout the story and how they were fully reliant on God through it all, which helps me think about my future, remembering that whatever happens, God is on the throne, He reigns. He is working the things I see as bad, for my good in the future .”
Rachel : "The PBS helped me to study the Bible more carefully and slowly, and to find the joy of the Lord in each passage of Scripture."
10
We met for our final PBS in 2025 from 17-20 October with 6 people from across the UK, one from the Philippines and one from the USA to study 1 Thessalonians PUP . Each day we met from 0900-1630, taking short breaks as we were meeting on Zoom. We walked through the PUP, helping attendees to understand:
-
The process of how to study a New Testament letter
-
The foundational components and tools of IBS
-
How to do a chapter study, including marking key words, contrasts, comparisons, terms of conclusion, geographical locations, and time references
-
How to summarise paragraphs and chapter themes
Maureen from the Philippines commented : “I thank our God and Savior for your ministry among us. God bless us each as we seek to apply the lessons we have learned and shall continue to learn from 1 Thessalonians. It immersed me in the ministry of Paul among the Thessalonians and convicted me concerning ~~—,WH~~ my calling as a disciple and discipler. Much needed and appreciated coaching and practice in using the Precept method. Fellowship in the word was excellent.”
After the PBS Maureen started her own PUP group in the Philippines and she connected us with friends of hers who live in the UK so we might encourage them too in the Word.
ENCOURAGING MEN IN THE WORD
Lakeside Christian Centre .
Right at the end November 2024 Nigel spoke at a men’s event at the Lakeside Christian Centre, in the Lake District from the book of Nehemiah.
Pastor Mike Horsman and Jonathan Bowyer hosted the event. Following on from this he led a study on zoom using the study ‘Rising to the Call of Leadership from January to March 2025.
11
St Paul’s Church, Salisbury . We studied (NISS) on 1 Thessalonians and made a start on 2 Thessalonians. We also hosted a gourmet dinner and a men’s breakfast and went away to The Sporting Manor in Devon where we studied ‘Spiritual Warfare – Overcoming the Enemy.’

them to continue, to join a group, attend Precept the Precept Bible School or connect with Discussion their local Precept office. We use the (Beginner) Moodle software platform. We believe Leader Guides that the Precept Training Pathway is becoming an essential tool for focusing our time and effort.
LEADER MEETINGS
We have met with Precept leaders fortnightly to study the Word of God together. We completed ‘Lord Help Me Grow Strong Spiritually in 28 Days’, and moved onto one of our ‘Precepts for Life’ studies on 1 Samuel entitled ‘The Heart of a Leader.’
These meetings have been invaluable for all concerned and provides an excellent means to stay connected with those who are running classes across the country.
We pray together and discuss issues related to leading Precept classes.

Social Media / Marketing / Communications
Zac Prosser’s skills in videography and media have been used greatly this year with the release of new YouTube video content and filming courses for Precept Training Pathway (PTP), amongst many other projects. He has built on the tremendous start of the PTP last year and this is having a wide reaching impact both in the UK and around the world. We have received a number of wonderful testimonies about the training: Here are a few testimonies:
14
“This teaches me how I can make the most of reading a Bible passage by making a careful and even meticulous observation and then correct interpretation. He Himself will become evident and will make me know Him better. I am more willing, more open, and more eager to spend time with Him and to know Him better. ”
" ~~—~~ It is impossible to do an inductive study without feeling ~~~~ moved inside . The method serves as the guiding thread, the one that has allowed me to have this experience_ , one that brought me closer to God and let His Holy Spirit teach, guide, and shape me ."
" The materials are excellent, all the support is great, and this new platform promises !"
Zac uses his skills to serve God through Precept, and is to a large extent putting out the public facing view of the ministry. He posts on social media very regularly, keeping Precept UK in the public eye.

| This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/A". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below. |
|||
| Recognition of income There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. Volunteer help These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when: • the charity becomes entitled to the resources; · it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and • the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Income from interest, royalties and dividends This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. Income from membership subscriptions Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies. Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities. Contractual income and performance related grants Offsetting Grants and donations Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). This is only included in the SOFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. Donated goods Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. Donated services and facilities Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SOFA as incoming resources when receivable. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SOFA as income from donations when receivable. Support costs |

| 2.4 ASSETS Intangible fixed assets Heritage assets Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. Tangible fixed assets for use by charity The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 14.2. Governance and support costs Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. They are valued at cost. These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least: Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts. Provisions for liabilities A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date. Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments. Stocks and work in progress This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Investment gains and losses The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5. They are valued at cost. The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. They are valued at cost. Basic financial instruments Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Deferred income No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. Grants with performance conditions Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Grants payable without performance conditions Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. Settlement of insurance claims Insurance claims are only included in the SOFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SOFA. |

| POLICIES ADOPTED ADDITIONAL TO, OR DIFFERENT FROM, THOSE ABOVE Debtors Current asset investments |
They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments. Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. The charity has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due. |
