The Beginning
A small beginning was made in the year 1987 when the first book "Church Planting Approach to Mission" was authored and published by S.Devasahayam Ponraj at Danishtpet, Tamil Nadu with a loan of rupees two thousand taken from a Christian friend. Within six months 1000 copies of the books were sold and therefore another 1000 copies had to be printed. In 1988 one more book "Church Growth Studies in Mission" was written and published. In 1990 a third book, "Man on the Mission Field" was added. The Lord gave Ponraj the name Mission Educational Books as He confirmed the writing and publication ministry to give a special focus on mission studies.
Our Commitment
MEB operates with a four-fold commitment in out writing, publishing and distribution of mission literature. Based on field experience, field research, practical and field oriented, relevant to the Indian and Asian mission contexts and finally available at an affordable price.
The Expansion
The Lord blessed this small beginning and today we have published over 100 titles and some of them in several regional languages. The Lord has enabled the MEB books to be widely circulated both in India and abroad.
