In the 30+ years since MAI’s founding, pioneering individuals have field tested the teaching methods in real-life settings, country to country, and honed a method that is learner-centered, highly-participatory, and empowers the adult learner. MAI is facilitating this teaching methodology in over 100 countries, and it is being rapidly adapted by numerous mission organizations because it’s a surprisingly effective church planting tool. We still believes as the founder, Dr. Raymond Benson, always said, “Above all else, the world needs Jesus.”
