Memory Cross Weblog

Over the next few months we are going to be adding a number of new Memory Cross cards to help teach kids Bible stories. We need your help. Let us know what stories you would like to see produced.

Memory Cross has an affiliate program where you can make money by letting people know about Memory Cross. Affliate marketing was made popular by internet giants such as Amazon. This is the way it works.

You sign up for the program and pick a text link, banner, or other form of advertising.

You include the information in your emails or post it to your website

When people come and click on the link a cookie is placed on their computer that tells the store that the person was sent by you.

If they order you receive a percentage of the sale.

The Memory Cross affiliate program offers several other advantages.

1. The cookies that are placed on the person’s computer never expire. What this means is that if that person goes to our site but does not buy, but decides to buy a year later you will still receive your commissions. (The only exception is if they have cleared their cookies manually from their computer or they have purchased a new computer). You receive 10% of the sale excluding shipping and taxes.
2. If they decide to sign up for the affiliate program you will receive 10% of any sales that they make.

So potentially you can receive 10% commissions on sales you make and 10% commissions on sales that are made from people who decide to join as a result of your efforts.

That is basically how it works. The rest of this blog is dedicated to helping people make the affiliate program work for them. This is accomplished by sharing some basic strategy and talking about what works and does not work.

If you have any comments please feel free to post them here.

The message of the Gospel is timeless but the way that it is presented continues to evolve. What is your church doing to reach the next generation? What resources are available? We would like to  provide resources and links to help reach the next generation. One of the churches that is reaching young people is Mosaic. I would encourage you to check out what they are doing and even download their podcast.

We’d like to create a place where churches can share ideas on how to reach out to their communities. Most churches are not growing, yet we have the best message on the planet. American corporations spend billions advertising their products while most churches remain silent. God is calling us to reach out to our neighbors. Let’s share ideas about what is working. Together we can learn from each other and touch millions of people with the Gospel message.

Some resources that are available are: Come Back Churches, Memory Cross,

Have you taken a mission trip recently? Share your experience! Where did you go? What was the experience like?

Short term mission projects can make such an impact on your life and the lives of people you are serving. If you are looking for a mission opportunity we have created a short resource list: Dream Ministries, Short Term Missions, Youth Group Mission Camps, YWAM.

Halloween has become an excellent opportunity for churches to reach out to the community. Let us know what your church does to reach out to yours. Together we can learn from each other and reach more people.

We also want to let you know that Memory Cross developed an outreach card especially for Halloween. We’ve also included links to other sites that provided excellent resources: e3resources provides the Evangecube, tracks and other resources.
American Tract Society, Billy Graham Evangelistic Organization provides a variety of resources to help you share your faith.

Welcome to the Memory Cross blog. We’d like to see it used to share ideas on creative ways to share the Gospel, ways that your church is reaching out to others, resources that you’ve found that were helpful in reaching out to others. As we share these ideas may God use them to further His kingdom.
