Okay.
Speaker A:So, you know I love a good story.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And even better when it's a story that combines heart and inspiration.
Speaker A:A and D.
Speaker A:Smart ideas.
Speaker A:Today's deep dive takes us into the world of what did Jesus Say?
Speaker A:WDJS for short.
Speaker A:It's a book that's already making a huge impact, and we're gonna be looking at this from kind of a global perspective.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:We're gonna see just how powerful this message is, and we've got a lot of really interesting insights and things to share with you today.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:One of the things that's fascinating to me about this is the simplicity of the premise.
Speaker B:You know, we've all heard, what would Jesus do?
Speaker B:But wdjs flips that on its head and asks, what did Jesus say?
Speaker B:And goes straight to the source.
Speaker B:It compiles only the words spoken by Jesus in the Bible.
Speaker A:And it's not just a compilation.
Speaker A:It's organized into seven core messages, which makes it really easy, I think, to grasp and to understand the essence of his teachings.
Speaker A:But what really blew me away when I was looking at this was the testimonials.
Speaker A:And we're not just talking about a handful of testimonials.
Speaker A:We have stories from readers in 10 different countries.
Speaker A:USA, Canada, Pakistan, Zimbabwe, Jamaica, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, UK, Slovenia.
Speaker B:Wow.
Speaker B:That's amazing.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:It's incredible to see how this book is resonating across cultures and continents.
Speaker B:Yeah, absolutely.
Speaker B:It speaks to, I think, that universal search for meaning and guidance.
Speaker B:And across these different cultures and backgrounds, you see this recurring theme of people finding inspiration in these words.
Speaker B:And it's not just sort of casual readers.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:These are people describing genuine transformations in their lives.
Speaker A:Exactly.
Speaker A:Like this reader from Zimbabwe who shared, my life is changing at the impact of the what Did Jesus say Book.
Speaker A:My Walk in the Lord has taken a shift with more focus on the words of Jesus.
Speaker A:That's powerful stuff.
Speaker B:That is powerful.
Speaker B:And, you know, it's not just about personal faith either.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:There's this ripple effect that extends outwards.
Speaker B:There's another reader from Canada who said, this book has been such a help going through the scriptures now.
Speaker B:So it's inspiring people to engage more deeply with their faith and with your communities.
Speaker A:It's amazing to see how simple, direct teachings can have such a profound impact.
Speaker A:And you know, what's interesting to me is that the book itself is designed to be super accessible.
Speaker A:It comes in full color with illustrations, large print.
Speaker A:You can get it as an ebook, an audiobook.
Speaker B:It really is about removing any barrier to entry.
Speaker B:It doesn't Matter your reading preference, your reading level.
Speaker B:These powerful words are available to everyone.
Speaker B:And speaking of making things accessible, let's talk about this unique funding opportunity they're launching.
Speaker B: The wdjs Marketing Fund: Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:They're not just looking for investors, they're seeking business funding partners who want to be a part of something special.
Speaker A:Essentially, it's a chance to support the book's launch and share in its success.
Speaker B:Yeah, it's an interesting approach.
Speaker B:Instead of traditional fundraising, you know, they're inviting people to become partners in spreading the message.
Speaker B:And the minimum investment's $250.
Speaker B:The maximum is $2,500.
Speaker B:And the return structure is pretty unique.
Speaker B:You get your initial investment back plus two times more.
Speaker A:So for example, if you put in $250, you could end up with $750.
Speaker B:That's right.
Speaker A:That's a pretty compelling return, especially when you believe in the product.
Speaker A:And it's not just about the money, is it?
Speaker B:Not at all.
Speaker B:It's about aligning your resources with your values.
Speaker B:Imagine being a part of something that's bringing comfort and guidance and inspiration to people around the world.
Speaker B:I mean, that's a powerful thing.
Speaker A:It is.
Speaker A:It's like you're investing in something bigger than yourself, something that has the potential to make a real difference in the world.
Speaker A:But let's get down to the nitty gritty here.
Speaker A:How are they planning on getting this book into the hands of so many people?
Speaker A:They're not just relying on word of mouth, are they?
Speaker B:Well, they're definitely leveraging the power of personal testimonies that we've been talking about, but they also have a solid marketing strategy in place.
Speaker B:They're drawing inspiration from the success of another faith based bestseller, the Shack.
Speaker B:Remember that, Wayne?
Speaker A:Of course.
Speaker A:Yeah, it was huge.
Speaker A:That was mostly word of mouth, wasn't it?
Speaker A:Like within churches and online communities.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker B:And WDJS is hoping to tap into to that same energy using online platforms and those powerful personal testimonies that we've been discussing to spread the word.
Speaker B:They already have a website, they're active on social media, they're doing book interviews, and they've even got a podcast called Walking with the Master.
Speaker B:So they're covering all the bases.
Speaker A:It's smart to leverage those existing communities, but they're also going beyond that.
Speaker A:They've got a whole e commerce system set up on Shopify.
Speaker A:And I have to say, their site looks fantastic.
Speaker B:Yeah, it is.
Speaker B:It's impressive how they're blending those traditional and digital marketing strategies and they're creating this seamless experience for anyone who wants to learn more about the book, purchase a copy, or even get involved with the marketing fund.
Speaker A:It's really impressive how well organized and comprehensive their approach is.
Speaker A:They seem to have thought of everything.
Speaker A:But let's not forget about the heart of it all.
Speaker A:Those amazing stories from readers around the world.
Speaker A:They're the real testament to the book's power.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker B:Let's dive back into those and explore the different ways people are connecting with this message.
Speaker B:These testimonials aren't just about, you know, feeling good, they're about real change.
Speaker B:One reader from the UK shared this I can't thank you enough for this book.
Speaker B:It was handed to me at a time I was crying out to God to change my heart and really know the truth.
Speaker B:Now I can say by reading wdjs, I am walking in truth and I don't feel alone.
Speaker B:Praise God.
Speaker B:It's incredible how this book is providing comfort and direction in people's lives.
Speaker A:That is a really powerful statement.
Speaker A:It speaks to the book's ability to meet people where they are in their moments of need.
Speaker A:And this one from Slovenia really struck me.
Speaker A:This book is the pure Word of God without additions.
Speaker A:I wish the knowledge in this book would be written in the hearts of everyone in this world.
Speaker A:There's a real sense of universality in that sentiment, a desire to share this message of hope and truth with everyone.
Speaker A:It speaks to the power of those simple, direct teachings to transcend cultural and geographical boundaries.
Speaker A:And it's not just in Europe and Africa.
Speaker A:A reader from Pakistan said, this wonderful book is really inspiring and touches the soul of the one who reads it.
Speaker A:The book really consists of all the sayings of the Lord Christ Jesus who taught with straight language to the crowds.
Speaker A:These seven messages contained in this wonderful book are the Lord's sayings for the salvation of mankind.
Speaker A:It's amazing how these words are resonating with people from all walks of life.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:What's striking to me is that these readers aren't just passively consuming the text, they're engaging with it on a deeply personal level.
Speaker B:They're finding meaning, purpose, and even a roadmap for living a more fulfilling life.
Speaker A:It's clear that this book is more than just words on a page.
Speaker A:It's sparking a movement.
Speaker A:People are connecting with each other, sharing their experiences and building a community around these teachings.
Speaker A: ck to the wdjs Marketing Fund: Speaker A:I know some folks might be hesitant to mix Faith and finance.
Speaker A:But this feels different, doesn't it?
Speaker B:It does.
Speaker B:And I think that difference lies in the intention.
Speaker B:It's not about, you know, profiting off of people's faith.
Speaker B:It's about providing an opportunity to support a project you believe in and share in its success.
Speaker A:It's like a collaborative effort where everyone involved is in seeing the message spread far and wide.
Speaker A:And the fact that they're offering such a generous return structure shows that they're committed to creating a win win situation for everyone.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker B:And remember, this isn't just a gamble.
Speaker B:They have a well thought out marketing strategy based on proven methods.
Speaker B:They're drawing inspiration from the Shack, a book that became a global phenomenon through organic word of mouth marketing.
Speaker A:And they're not just replicating what the Shack did.
Speaker A:They're taking it a step further.
Speaker A:They're leveraging the power of the Internet and social media to connect with a wider audience.
Speaker A:They're building a platform that's both sophisticated and accessible.
Speaker B:It's a smart approach.
Speaker B:While the Shack relied heavily on church communities, wdjs is tapping into a more diverse online landscape.
Speaker B:They're reaching people where they are on their own terms.
Speaker A:It's exciting to see how they're blending traditional and modern strategies to create something truly unique.
Speaker A:They're combining the power of personal connection with the reach of digital technology.
Speaker B:And it's not just about selling books.
Speaker B:It's about building a movement.
Speaker B:It's about creating a ripple effect of positive change that starts with individual transformation and extends outward to families, communities, and ultimately the world.
Speaker A:I love that.
Speaker A:It's like they're planting seeds of hope and inspiration that have the potential to grow into something truly beautiful.
Speaker B:And those seeds are already starting to sprout.
Speaker B:Remember that reader from Pakistan who wished everyone had this knowledge in their hearts?
Speaker B:That's the kind of impact this book is having.
Speaker B:It's prompting people to think differently, to act differently, and to live differently.
Speaker A:I'm so curious to hear more about these seven core messages.
Speaker A:It seems like they're the heart of the book's transformative power.
Speaker B:You're absolutely right.
Speaker B:Those seven messages are what set wdjs apart.
Speaker B:It's not just about abstract ideas.
Speaker B:It's about practical wisdom that people can apply to their daily lives.
Speaker A:So let's dive into those seven core messages.
Speaker A:What makes them so unique and impactful?
Speaker B:Well, instead of presenting a theological treatise or trying to interpret what Jesus meant, wdjs simply presents his words categorized by theme.
Speaker B:This direct approach allows readers to connect with the source material without any filter.
Speaker A:That's a fascinating concept.
Speaker A:It really puts the emphasis on personal reflection and understanding.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker B:It encourages readers to ask themselves, what do I take away from these words?
Speaker B:How do they speak to my life and my challenges?
Speaker B:That's a very empowering approach to engaging with faith.
Speaker A:And it seems like they've struck a chord with this approach based on the responses they're getting.
Speaker B:Absolutely.
Speaker B:And remember, these seven messages aren't just random sayings.
Speaker B:They cover essential aspects of life.
Speaker B:Love, forgiveness, service, faith, prayer.
Speaker B:These are timeless principles that resonate with people across cultures and generations.
Speaker A:You know, it's funny, we often get caught up in the complexities of religion, but the core message of love and compassion can be so simple and powerful.
Speaker B:You hit the nail on the head.
Speaker B:WDJS strips away the dogma and presents these teachings in a clear, accessible way.
Speaker B:And the beautiful thing is, it's not about telling people what to believe.
Speaker B:It's about presenting the words of Jesus and allowing readers to draw their own conclusions.
Speaker A:That's a really refreshing approach, especially in today's world where everything feels so polarized.
Speaker B:It's about creating space for dialogue, reflection, and personal growth.
Speaker B:And it's about empowering individuals to connect with their faith on their own terms.
Speaker A:I love that.
Speaker A:It's not about imposing beliefs.
Speaker A:It's about sparking a conversation and encouraging personal exploration.
Speaker A: ck to the WDJS Marketing Fund: Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:It's the perfect example of aligning your actions with your values.
Speaker B:It's an opportunity to not only support a project you believe in, but also to potentially benefit from its success.
Speaker A:It's like you're becoming a part of something bigger than yourself, something that's spreading a message of hope and inspiration.
Speaker B:And they've made it so accessible.
Speaker B:You know, you don't have to be a wealthy investor to participate.
Speaker B:The minimum investment is just $250.
Speaker A:And remember, you get your initial investment back plus two times more as the book sells.
Speaker A:It's a win, win situation.
Speaker B:It's truly a unique opportunity to blend faith and finance in a way that feels both ethical and impactful.
Speaker B:And beyond the financial aspect, there's the satisfaction of knowing you're playing a role in spreading a message that's changing lives.
Speaker A:Okay, so we've covered a lot of ground today.
Speaker A:We've explored the impact of wdjs, its unique approach to presenting the teachings of Jesus, the innovative marketing strategy, and the compelling funding opportunity.
Speaker A:But before we wrap up, I want to leave you with this.
Speaker A:What if by supporting this project, you could help plant the seeds for a more compassionate, understanding and loving world.
Speaker A:It's an inspiring vision, isn't it?
Speaker B:It is.
Speaker B:And it all starts with a simple question.
