Connecting People To Your Ministry
Discover the different ways you can connect people to your ministry through a Bible Plan.
Table of Contents
📌 Your Content Can Include Three Kinds of Links:
- Links to supplemental resources within your content.
- Your Partner URL.
- Promotional CTA's.
Sharing Hyperlinks within Content
If you link to a supplemental resource (like a prayer guide or teaching notes), make sure it’s free and directly accessible — no personal information, mailing list signup, or payment required. Place any links at the very end of your content, so they don’t pull people away from the devotional.
Your Partner URL
Your Partner URL is how people find you: a permanent link to your primary platform, shown on your Partner Page and every piece of content, so people always know who made it and where to find you.
Provide a permanent link to your primary digital platform or landing page. This appears in the “Plan Info” section, where people can learn more about your ministry.
✅ What To Do | ❌ Things To Avoid |
Examples: website, social media account, LinkTree, author landing page. | Don’t link to product or service sales, direct downloads, click funnels, or donation pages. |
Publishers: a landing page for the specific book or media your content is excerpted from is fine, even if it includes a sales link — but it can’t include unrelated products, services, or a general donation ask. | Don’t link to temporary marketing pages, like a campaign or event page that could expire — your link should still work for people reading your content months or years from now. |
Promotional Calls to Action (CTAs)
A CTA is an invitation: an occasional, specific next step you can offer people, like supporting your ministry, joining your list, picking up a resource, placed intentionally within a Plan rather than attached to your Partner Page. Generosity matters to us — it’s part of why our Family of Apps is free, and we want any partnership to reflect that same spirit. Because we keep our platforms free of anything that competes with God’s Word for attention, CTAs are the one deliberate exception: a chance to invite people toward a next step with your ministry, beyond the link already in your Plan Info.
✅ What To Do
- For Bible Plans 7 days or longer, you may include a CTA on the first day, the last day, and every 10th day in between (Day 10, Day 20, and so on). Each of those days may include one hyperlink at the bottom of the Plan Day.
- For Plans of 3–6 days, a CTA may only appear on the last day.
- CTA links don’t need to be the same link throughout a Plan.
- Any CTA link must relate directly to your ministry or content.
❌ Things To Avoid
- Don't include personal contact info (a private phone number, WhatsApp, email, etc.). Official ministry channels — like a prayer line or contact form — are fine.
- Don’t link to temporary marketing pages, like a campaign or event page that could expire — your link should still work for people reading your content months or years from now.
- Don’t link to anything that would violate our Content & Partnership Guidelines, including Core Beliefs, Partner Expectations, and Quality Guidelines.
