An Open Letter to Any Doctor
Who Would Like to Make a
Huge Impact on the Spiritual Health
of Their Practice and Their Patients:
July 22, 2008
Dear Doctor,
I have an interesting story to tell you. Imagine a few years ago, on a beautiful late spring afternoon, two young men both graduated from the same medical school. They were very much alike, these two young men. Both had been better than average students, both were personable and both had accepted Jesus as their Savior while in school and were eager to make a difference for Christ in their medical practice.
Recently, these men had a chance to sit and talk again at a Christian leadership conference they both attended.
They were still very much alike. Both were enjoying successful medical practices. Both had three children and both were happily married.
But there was one difference. One of the doctors knew that he was making a significant difference in the spiritual health of his patients while the other realized he was really only helping his patients with their physical well being. (Needless to say, he was sorely disappointed in that aspect of his life.)
What Made The Difference
Have you ever wondered, as I have, what makes this kind of difference in doctor’s lives? It isn’t always a native intelligence or talent or dedication or Biblical knowledge. It isn’t always that one person wants to do more for God than the other.
The difference lies in what each person knows and how he or she makes use of that knowledge.
You see, two years ago both doctors heard me speak at a leadership conference. Both took very good notes. Both had a very strong desire to do a “better job” in dealing with their patients. But only one doctor took my simple advice about helping their patients with their spiritual health. The other doctor did not; he had “other plans.”
And that is why I am writing to you, and other doctors like you about my Bleedership group. For that is the whole purpose of Bleedership: To give its doctor members an easy to use, inexpensive way to help their Christian patients to grow in their Christian faith.
A Spiritual Tool Unlike Any Other
You see, Bleedership is a unique offering including a monthly newsletter for you to give to your patients or leave for them in your waiting room. These newsletters are a minimum of 8 pages in length and will be customized for your practice with your practice name at the top of each page. In addition, the last page can be written by you or your staff each month. This gives the newsletter a custom look just for you and your practice. (I can provide this last page for you, if you would rather not write it for yourself). You can download a sample newsletter here:
Plus you will regularly receive a ton of other materials including audio CDs which will make your ministry/practice much more effective.
Knowledge Is Power
Right now, I am reading page one of the current Bleedership newsletter. It combines current events, everyday happenings, quotes, anecdotes and Christian principles into a teaching tool that really connects with Christians who work as well as those who might be searching for spiritual truths.
Each month, your patients (and your staff) can learn about practical things they can do to live out their faith 24/7, to be a better worker, to be a better leader. They will learn these things in a fresh and relevant way. In fact, you will be surprised at how many tell you how much they enjoy and appreciate the new reading materials you are providing them.
In addition, you will be amazed at how many spiritual conversations you will have with patients that they initiate.
This is also a great way for a doctor to share his/her faith with their patients in an effective, easy and non-threatening way without saying a word. After all, isn’t sharing our faith what Jesus commanded us to do? (If you are not sure about that answer, check Matthew 28:19).
Guaranteed Offer
Put my statements to the proof by trying my program ABSOLUTELY FREE! That’s right, depending on the program you choose, I will send you an emailed PDF for you to share without limitation, 25 eight page newsletters customized for your practice to distribute to your patients and your staff at no charge to you, or 25 newsletters PLUS an emailed PDF (The PDF option is new!). All I ask from you is that you pay $9.95 to cover part of my shipping and handling costs.
Dear Jim, Wow. Fantastic book! I really appreciate you sharing “Bleedership” with me. It really spoke to me and I have distributed the other copies I received in my bonus pack to friends of mine who I know will appreciate it. It has really helped me to examine my own leadership style. Your newsletter has been fantastic! I have been giving it to some of my patients and I have put the rest of the copies in my waiting room. I have been sticking my head out to see who is reading them and it is amazing how many people are picking these up. I have witnessed quite a few people read them and then stick them in their purse or carry them with them when they are called back for treatment. To know these are being taken home is very cool. It warms my heart to think that by providing this valuable tool to my patients I could actually be making a positive difference in their lives. To me this is why I became a doctor. I truly want to make a difference in the overall lives of my patients. I have always felt I was helping them with their physical needs yet I felt that was all I was doing. I had been praying for something like this. Now I feel I am able to easily help them with their spiritual and emotional needs as well. Thank you so much! Now my practice is also my If I can help to promote this in any way, please let me know. I believe in this that much. Yours truly, Dr. Daryl Lajiness |
ministry!If you don’t have patients telling you this is the best reading material they have seen in a doctor’s office; if you don’t feel your patients are growing in their faith as a result of these materials; if your patients aren’t starting spiritual conversations with you; if your patients aren’t more excited to come to your office next time; if you feel that any of my claims aren’t true, just tell me and you will owe nothing more. Otherwise you will be charged monthly (between $79.95 and $144.95 per month depending on the package you choose) so you can continue to reach these patients in a very meaningful way.
During your trial period, you will not only be sent all I have mentioned above, but you will also receive The Most Important Free Gift Ever which includes 5 copies of my award winning book Bleedership, Biblical First-Aid for Leaders (3 written copies and 2 audio books); a copy of the Bleedership Life Planning Assistant; A CD interview with best-selling author and speaker Dr. Clint Longenecker; a CD interview with best-selling author John Beckett; a CD interview with best-selling author and the leader of the faith at work movement, Os Hillman; a CD recording of me speaking on “Does our Work Matter?” as well as a CD recording of me being interviewed for the better part of an hour on one of North America’s most powerful radio stations, WJR in Detroit.
The Most Important Free Gift Ever alone is worth over $379 and you will receive this absolutely free. If you are ever dissatisfied in any way, you can cancel at any time and keep the bonus gifts.

Dear Jim, Thank you so much for allowing me to be a member of your Bleedership Group. I received your initial packet with all of my bonuses and I was blown away! Your book, “Bleedership” was fantastic and very easy to read. It amazed me at how many areas of my life it applies to. It has definitely helped me in my leadership skills. The interviews on CD are awesome too! They have really helped me in looking at my work as a place where I can live out my faith. They have even given me some great ideas I can use in my business. In addition, your Bleedership Life Planning Assistant has really had an impact on me and the way I look at the time in my day. I thank you for this – and my family does too! Thank you mostly for your monthly newsletter. Each month I get several key “take aways” that I can use to be a better Christian worker and to improve my leadership skills at work and at home. It really speaks to me. I have studied a lot of programs on leadership and yours is unique and different. It is so easy to “talk the talk,” but when it comes to actually living it out when our livelihood, careers and family are on the line it can be very difficult. It is so refreshing to have this great material to “drink from.” I highly recommend membership in the Bleedership Group to any Christian worker! If you are serious about your faith, this will really challenge Kind Regards, Derek Freund |
you to grow!
An Investment In Eternity
I cannot promise you that your patients will all of a sudden become much stronger Christians by reading my Bleedership materials. But I can guarantee that you will know in your heart that you are doing something to help them in more ways than just their physical health and they will be better for it.
Blessings,
Jim Lange
Owner of Bleedership
PS. About those two doctors I mention at the beginning of this letter: They were graduated from medical school together and together got started in their medical practices. So what made their ability to really make a difference in the lives of their patients different? Knowledge. Useful knowledge. And taking the step of applying that knowledge through the Bleedership program.
PSS. It’s important to note that a subscription to Bleedership may be tax deductible. For more information on the Doctors Bleedership Membership, see our Frequently Asked Questions.
What People Are Saying.........
“Bleedership uses Biblical examples to demonstrate that God has a plan for us, even at work in the secular world, and that His plan can be accomplished best when we have a respectful regard for one another. It deftly shows the wisdom of being obedient to the Biblical commands: 'Love your neighbor as yourself' and 'Love your enemies'. This book might be the best of the bunch as far as the newest submissions to PK are concerned - I highly recommend it!"

family-owned business eventually became a subsidiary of a publicly owned
company, and I learned first hand the frustration of incompetent leadership. Jim has captured the essence of following in the footsteps of a famous

Jim provides insight and wisdom as to how to seek and find this balance, and to be sure that God's loving embrace is present even in the most difficult of times."

“You can pick up Bleedership at any point and relate to the real-life story of how we can be better examples.

"Thanks again for the wonderful book that I read Saturday and Sunday. It is a great book! Congratulations and God truly is using you to help leaders lead from a more Biblical perspective. In reading the book, it was a reminder to serve in leadership roles as Jesus did. I have always tried to do many of the things you mentioned, but it really focused in on key elements of leadership with more compassion, understanding, listening, inclusion, etc."
