We are so excited to announce the creation of a social media launch team for Karen Kingsbury’s new Bible study, The Family of Jesus! In this study (releasing July 1) Karen will lead women on a journey to explore the life of Jesus by examining those closest to Him through a combination of storytelling and Scripture.
We’d love your help in getting the word out about this Bible study through your social media channels (like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, blogs, etc.). Does this sounds like something that interests you? If so, continue reading (very important!) and then fill out the form at the bottom!
Q: What is a social media launch team?
A social media launch team is a group of people who will commit to getting the word out about The Family of Jesus through the social media channels that they currently use (like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, blogs, etc.) from the beginning of June through the release of the Bible study in July.
Q: Is this an online Bible study?
This is NOT an online Bible study. While we would certainly encourage you to do the Bible study with a group of women once it releases, that will not be the purpose of this team. The main purpose will be to get the word out about The Family of Jesus.
Q: Why are you doing this?
We believe so strongly in the message that Karen has for women in The Family of Jesus. We’ve created this launch team to make as many women aware of this Bible study as possible!
Q: How does a social media launch team work?
Once accepted, you will be invited to join a private Facebook group. The Lifeway team will then post “share squares” (see the image below), video clips, and other items from the Bible study to the Facebook group. Your responsibility will be to then post those “share squares,” video clips, and additional items to your own social media channels. This will happen about two to three times a week. It’s that simple!
Q: Will I need to create anything to share with my friends and family on social media for The Family of Jesus?
No. We will supply you with everything you’ll need through the private Facebook group!
Q: Will I get anything for being a member of the social media launch team?
All members of the social media launch team will receive a Family of Jesus commemorative gift, a special video message from Karen, physical AND digital copies of The Family of Jesus member book, and access to the entire first teaching session from the study. (Note: launch team members will not receive the physical copy of the member book until it releases.)
Q: Can anyone join the social media launch team?
Unfortunately, we cannot accomodate over a certain number of applicants (although we would absolutely love this). Thus, the launch team will be limited to women who already have an active social media presence.
Q: When and how will we find out if we were chosen to be a part of the launch team?
Once a certain number of women apply, we will look through each application to determine who will make up the team. We will then send an email to the selected women the last week in May.
Q: How long will this last?
The launch team will get started in early June and continue through the Bible study release in July (so about 4-6 weeks).
