Steps to Success
In
last month's newsletter we discussed the main changes
recently made to the program. So far, these
changes have been met with enthusiasm. Most of you
reading this newsletter are already distributors and are
encouraged to follow the “Steps to Success” outlined
below. As
always, our goal is to deliver as many Bibles into the
world as possible. These steps allow anyone to help in
whatever way they feel comfortable; either by donation
or by joining our distributor program and helping us
“Spread the Word”.
1.
Pick a Bible Outreach program from
the Make
a Donation
page
of the website.
Find one that you can relate to or one that seems
to move or stir you within. As described in
step 3, this will be your motivation for speaking to
others about the program.
2.
Make
a list of anyone and everyone you know who might be
interested in making a donation to the Bible Outreach
program you have identified. The key is
numbers.
The more people you contact, the more Bibles will
go to the outreach program and the more chance you will
have to grow your business. Even though Bibles Cover The
Earth is unique in its product and goals, there are many
excellent books and websites dedicated to growing a
network marketing business that can be used as a
resource to help you as you tell others about this
program.
3.
Next,
start contacting these people. You can contact
them via phone, email, texting, or whatever. However, the
more personal it is, the more likely you will be
successful.
As a suggestion, you might start a conversation
with, “Hey Bill, how are you? I just wanted to
talk to you for a little bit about a program I’ve gotten
involved with and thought you might want to help. We are sending
Bibles to [whatever Outreach program you’ve
picked].
I’m hoping to get as many Bibles as possible to
this group of people. If you’d be
interested in making a tax deductible donation to help
us get Bibles to these people, then go to www.BiblesCoverTheEarth.com/your
url and click on the Make a Donation link. Hey, and while
you are there, take a look at the business opportunity
available through this company. It is something
I am doing and I thought you might be interested
too. I’ll
talk to you about it again soon and see what you
think.”
4.
In
a week or two, follow up with the people you spoke with
that sounded interested. Ask them what
they thought of the program.
That’s
it! These are the basics for growing your Bible outreach
and Bibles Cover The Earth business. Bibles Cover The
Earth is about building relationships. The main thing
is to stay passionate, pray, and believe in the reasons
you are doing this in the first place.
The steps above, with more
details, are part of the information found in the new
Instructional Manual available to new Distributors (part
of the startup package) and to current Distributors
(electronic version via email or printed version by
request).

Wisdom
I
recently read a book by Andy Andrews called The Noticer. It
is a novel about an old man named Jones who helps many
people simply by helping them to view their situation
from a different perspective. The book
certainly made me think and Jones’ sage-like
instructions helped me to understand the importance of
wisdom in every area of my life. Proverbs 4:7 says that
wisdom is the principal thing. There are many
definitions for wisdom, but I heard a definition the
other day that was unique, but one to which Jones might
agree. Wisdom is
the ability to discern between two things; things
such as good and evil, a good and a bad investment, to
go or to stay, to spend the time or to quit. The list is
endless, but wisdom comes as we study each “side” of the
decision from different perspectives. Even with diligent
study and consideration from many sides, however, we
many times lack the wisdom to truly make a qualified
decision.
I bring this up this month because I believe that
we are entering a season when many of us will be forced
to make some important decisions for ourselves and our
family. A wrong choice could hold dire repercussions.
When Jesus becomes our Lord, we as His children have a
huge advantage when it comes to any decision making. We
have the Holy Spirit. We can ask His assistance on any
matter regardless of importance. He knows the best
answer for every situation and because of that ability
to choose properly every time, He is full of
wisdom.
A
great example is the story of Solomon and the two
women who both claimed they were the mother of the same
baby. They came before Solomon to determine the real
mother. Wisdom was needed; a choice had to be made.
Strangely Solomon understood a mother’s love and ordered
the baby to be cut in half and a section given to each
woman. Solomon knew that the real mother would elect to
give the baby away rather than kill it, thus revealing
the infant’s real mother. His ability to discern between
two mothers was only one of the reasons he is called the
wisest man to ever live. But where did this wisdom come
from? He asked God for it, and God gave it gladly. James 1:5 holds
the same promise for us.
At
Bibles Cover The Earth we believe that the Word of
God is the compass that is able to help direct our lives
and that it holds the power for the Holy Spirit to
guide us in all wisdom. Its pages are full of people who
had to make a critical decision and needed assistance
from the Holy Spirit.
As we reach the middle of this year, I hope you
will remember that the wisdom of the Holy Spirit is only
a prayer away. Why not start each day with a simple
prayer to the Holy Spirit? Ask Him to guide you and to give
you the wisdom that you need for that day. You will
find that you don’t make as many stupid little mistakes
and your ability to see things from different
perspectives will grow as you grow in wisdom.

Prayer For Your
Genealogy
God can only build this business and we can only
succeed if we are praying for ourselves, our
genealogy, and the company. There is truly
strength in corporate prayer. |
