Who are the Authors of IPS materials?

In most cases the authors are people just like you. Most are or have been missionaries with the IMB. Some of the materials are written by national pastors or convention workers. Some worked as contract writers so the manuscript is published without authorship. 

Some have written materials they developed for their work. They have now shared those manuscripts with you through IPS.

Because of security issues we do not release any more information about the authors than what they place in their manuscripts. In some cases, we have removed even that information.

If you have developed something that you have used in your work and you think it might be helpful to others, please consider sending us a copy. We will be glad to advise you on getting it ready to release through IPS. Just because you may see other material here that are similar to your manuscript don't think that yours isn't needed. Because of cultural differences or differences in one project from another one manuscript helps one missionary while the other may need your manuscript. If you need help deciding about making your work available please feel free to contact us.
