Read The Scriptures Newsletter

To view this email as a web page, click here Probably the most important 17¢ a day you could spend! We have finally carried through with the changes that were discussed and announced to take place surrounding Read the Scriptures. We previously outlined the basics here: Coming Soon, and we have also sent out a Letter from our Founder, but now this email details the changes and opportunities for our current RtS members. As of April 24, 2013, Read the Scriptures has now switched to a subscription platform. (Originally this change was announced to take place in January.) This means that the current services offered through Read the Scriptures are no longer free, yet are available for only $4.99 a month, or $49.99 a year! (Family subscription rates will be available soon - if interested, Contact Us.) That's less than 17¢ a day! The subscription fee will enable you to use the syncing, scheduling and other features of both the website and app. If you don't already have our Read the Scriptures app, it will soon be available again to download for free (about 30 days from now for iPhone/iPad - Android coming soon after). For those of you who have already purchased the app, you will automatically be entitled to a free year of our services. Quoting the letter sent from the Read the Scriptures Founder: "Having a monthly income, much like we do with personal budgets, gives us the ability to do more and more for the website, app and future apps. We are not looking at stopping just with the features we have now or ideas we have today. We want to continue to improve and build upon the app and give it to all platforms to be obtainable by ALL." (Please note: the previously announced subscription price of $9.95 a month was changed to our current price of $4.99.) We are excited to move through this transition and hope you will join us! The first scheduled changes will be to the design of the website and the app. In this re-design we will also be adding more modern services to the site and app, including Facebook and Twitter integration and so on. Once our re-design is complete, we will begin to roll out new features and services we have mapped out for the website and the app, including releasing the app for Android. And as promised, we are not going to stop with just the basic features that are out there. We will be adding more and more creative and useful tools and content, such as more books, PDFs, magazines and offering additional languages. There are very few valuable church-related products or services available for free. Content, features and customer service will be our focus. We have had hundreds of emails and messages supporting us, for which we are grateful for your understanding and continuing support. Our apologies go out to those of you who may not be able to continue using our services because of the newly required subscription fee. There are many alternative ways to read your scriptures, and for so doing, we know you will be blessed. We want to move forward positively in making this the most valuable scripture reading service available! We will make a difference, we will do more!

To view this email as a web page, click here For less than a combo meal. There has been a lot of discussion surrounding Read the Scriptures and the changes that are coming. We have outlined the basics here: www.readthescriptures.com/coming-soon and we have also sent out a letter from our founder here: www.readthescriptures.com/free-for-a-year but we decided we would send out an additional email that details the changes and opportunities for our current RtS members. As of January 19th, 2013 Read the Scriptures will be switching to a monthly subscription platform. This means that the current services will no longer be free. Starting January 20th, 2013 our app will be free to download, however you will be required to pay the monthly fee to use the syncing, scheduling and other features of both the website and app. For those of you who have already purchased the app by this date, you will automatically be enrolled for a free year of our services. As we move through this transition, the first noticable changes will be to the design of the website and the app. In this re-design we will also be adding more modern services to the site and app, including Facebook and Twitter integration and so on.

We are not going to stop with just the basic features that are out there. We will be adding more and more creative and useful tools and content, such as more books, PDFs, magazines and offering additional languages. Content, features and customer service will be our focus. Starting this week we will be opening up the curtain between our planning and our users. This means that on our Facebook ( http://www.facebook.com/readthescriptures ) page, we will be asking for your ideas on features, the re-design and more. To be blunt we have had hundreds of emails and messages supporting us, while a few are not happy about this change. We are moving forward with these changes and yes, there are other services out there and we invite you to use them if necessary. We want to move forward positively in making this the most valuable scripture reading service anywhere! Remember that for those of you who are RtS members and sign up here: www.readthescriptures.com/coming-soon you will receive a lifetime monthly membership pricing of $4.95.

Read The Scriptures Newsletter

To view this email as a web page, click here Letter from the Read the Scriptures Founder: FREE FOR A YEAR Dear members and followers. As you know we are making changes at Read the Scriptures and our goal truly is to create a win-win for both you and us, and more importantly to spread the gospel. For the past 8 years I have been a one man team building RtS and have loved every minute of it. Yet I knew more could be done. I pioneered reading schedules, scripture syncing and so much more. I have hundreds of other ideas, but I can't do it on my own. I have had investors offer to come in and help, but they want to change everything and make it all about the money. I don't want that. So after pondering and searching, I found two other amazing spirits that have seen my vision and want to team up and help. That is right, we are a team of three and are ready to take on this project and take it to a whole new level. We have our mission, we know what we want to do and will accomplish it with your help. I am sure many of you understand that in order to produce a project that is more than just a 'hobby', revenue has to be generated. App sales alone do not even come close to what it takes to create that revenue or to maintain the program. Having a monthly income, much like we do with personal budgets, gives us the ability to do more and more for the website, app and future apps. We are not looking at stopping just with the features we have now or ideas we have today. We want to continue to improve and build upon the app and give it to all platforms to be obtainable by ALL. You know our mission. If not please visit: http://readthescriptures.com/coming-soon We need you to spread the word about our project and to help us grow with your feedback and ideas. I have read every email, every tweet, every Facebook message, and I see that many of you are extremely supportive and excited about this. Though some of you are disappointed, those of you that have been professional in your disappointment got us thinking: "How can we make this work even better as a win-win for our existing members?" Here is what we have come up with. For those of you that have purchased our app, (we do have a list and know who you are) we will give you one year of our service for FREE. This gives you a year to see if what we are doing works with your lifestyle and if it is worth the $9.95 a month. We know that as this letter is going out to over 160,000 emails, some of you will choose to buy the app to get a year FREE of Read the Scriptures. That is fine. However, starting January 19th, 2013, the app will be free but you will be required to have a monthly plan to access the system. I want each of you to know that we are truly trying to create this win-win. We have looked at our competitors and while they may look like they offer the same services, they do not. Just in comparison our closest competitor requires you to spend over $129.95 just to get the same services we offer and they do not offer them as uniquely as we do now, nor will in the future. Furthermore, they count on you spending that $129.95 a year just for them to stay in business. This entire process has not just been thrown out to the masses without thought. We have spent the last six months working on this. We cannot be more excited to start this journey and hope all of you follow us!
