Kay and her husband, Jack, were serving as missionaries in
Mexico in the late 1960s when medical problems forced them to return to their hometown of Chattanooga, Tennessee. There Jack managed a Christian radio station while Kay led a Bible study for teenagers in their living room. Soon the Bible study started meeting in a barn and attracting adults too. At that time, Jack left his radio career to help expand his wife’s ministry into Precept Ministries International.
