John Beck Is Making The New Testament Accessible To Billions With Virtual Bible Study

Entrepreneur's Enigma

John Beck, a Long Island native and Oswego State University graduate, began his career with a Disney World College Program internship. He spent 25 years at Ford Motor Company in sales and marketing before embarking on a passion project—Virtual Bible Study—in 2018. For 18 months, he wrote daily Bible lessons, completing the New Testament multiple times to refine the content.

In 2021, he joined Jaguar Land Rover North America, continuing to improve Virtual Bible Study while gaining valuable leadership experience. In March 2024, he enrolled in the Founder Institute Accelerator Program, which provided crucial mentorship and tools to advance his vision.

Currently, John is leading a Seed round for Virtual Bible Study while developing an interactive video lesson titled "How to Get to Heaven," based on the most popular content from his 260 lessons. His next step is to create an app with premium features for faith-based collaboration after gathering focus group feedback.

Throughout his journey, John has maintained his commitment to sharing biblical teachings while building a sustainable business model.
