The work extends beyond a book launch. Corporate Members help fund the careful, continuing work of research, editorial review, technology, design, production, accessibility, printing, distribution, and awareness that lets these projects reach more readers.
Publishing
Writing, editing, fact checking, citations, design, typesetting, proofing, ebook production, print preparation, and publication administration.
Technology
Web infrastructure, hosting, databases, accessibility, digital publishing, and AI-assisted research tools used to support human judgment and scholarship.
Free Digital Access
Qualifying digital books and ebooks can remain freely available to readers while new editions and supporting materials are developed.
Printed Distribution
Long-term distribution to readers, churches, communities, ministries, groups, and people with limited ability to purchase physical books.
Expert Engagement
Support helps expand the research network and engage additional researchers, editors, language specialists, historians, and subject experts.
Learning
Accessible explanations, educational materials, and source context that encourage curiosity, wisdom, hope, restoration, and transformation.
Outreach
Introducing the projects to new readers, building awareness, strengthening distribution, and making the work easier to discover and use.
How it works
A deliberate path from interest to partnership.
Corporate partnerships are built around shared alignment. The initiation payment starts a conversation; it does not create an automatic membership.
1
Begin
Pay the $1,000.00 initiation fee through the official Square checkout.
2
We connect
Our team schedules a conversation to learn about your organization, goals, entities, and recognition preferences.
3
Determine alignment
Both sides consider whether the relationship makes sense and how the partnership can best support the work.
4
Activate
If approved, complete the agreement and the separate ongoing membership payment arrangement.
5
Partner
Recognition, updates, and agreed benefits begin after activation while editorial independence remains intact.
Membership economics
Clear separation between initiation and active membership.
The online Square transaction starts the evaluation and onboarding process. Ongoing billing begins only after approval, written activation documents, and a separate payment arrangement.

Flexible scaleParent companies, subsidiaries, brands, divisions, and affiliates may each hold a membership.
The $40,000 annual Corporate Membership is paid monthly. The monthly payment schedule, billing start date, and payment authorization will be stated in written activation documents supplied after approval. The initiation checkout does not establish that recurring billing. Organizations considering multiple memberships, expanded distribution, publication or research sponsorship, or support beyond the standard membership are welcome to discuss a tailored arrangement.
Publications and access
Support the work already in readers' hands - and what comes next.

That work includes Bible On This: Business, Scripture & Great Founders, featuring figures already represented in the project such as Warren Buffett, Oprah Winfrey, Martha Stewart, Jay-Z, John D. Rockefeller, and Steve Jobs.
