How People Might Use UBLikeJesus2

The following are hypothetical examples illustrating potential use cases. These are not testimonials from actual users but scenarios showing how UBLikeJesus2 could be applied in Christian spiritual formation:

Hypothetical Example

Morning Devotions

David might keep his printed cards on his desk alongside his Bible. Each morning during quiet time, he could select a virtue he wants to cultivate that week (e.g., "Patience"), read through the quotes on the back, choose one that speaks to him, and journal a prayer response in the margins. The visual on the front serves as a meditation focus throughout the day.

Hypothetical Example

Couples' Devotional

Michael and Sarah might use UBLikeJesus2 for their nightly devotions together. They could work through one virtue per week, each selecting a quote that resonated most and sharing why. The cards give them a structured framework for spiritual conversation and mutual encouragement in Christlike character formation.

Hypothetical Example

Small Group Study

A church small group might adopt UBLikeJesus2 as a 34-week character formation study. Each week they focus on one virtue: members read through the module individually, journal their reflections, then come together to share insights and pray for one another. The cards provide both personal and communal formation.

Hypothetical Example

Lenten Journey

Father Thomas might guide his congregation through a Lenten discipline using select UBLikeJesus2 modules. For the 40 days of Lent, parishioners could work through virtues like Humility, Self-Control, Forgiveness, and Faith—using the cards for daily meditation and the ebook for Sunday evening reflection. A meaningful way to prepare hearts for Easter.

Hypothetical Example

Youth Ministry

Pastor Amy might use the module cards as discussion starters for youth group. Each week, the AI-generated image captures attention, the quotes provoke discussion about what it means to follow Jesus practically, and teens can journal responses on their own printed copies. Visual, tactile, and spiritually substantive.

Hypothetical Example

Personal Transformation Project

James might identify 12 virtues where he most wants to grow, then spend one month on each—a full year of intentional character formation. He prints the relevant cards, keeps them visible in his workspace, and tracks his growth through monthly journal reviews. By year's end, he has 12 deeply annotated cards documenting his transformation journey.

Note: These examples illustrate possible applications. Your experience will depend on your spiritual tradition, preferred devotional style, and commitment to the practices of character formation.

A Proven Approach: Franklin's Method for Christlike Character

Benjamin Franklin developed a systematic virtue-cultivation method in 1726 that transformed his character. His approach can be beautifully adapted for Christian spiritual formation with UBLikeJesus2.

Franklin focused on one virtue per week, cycling through 13 virtues over 13 weeks, repeating quarterly. Christians through the ages have used similar methods—from the Desert Fathers' focus on specific passions to the Ignatian Examen's daily examination of conscience.

How It Could Work with UBLikeJesus2

  1. Select 13 virtues from the 34 that you most need to develop
  2. Print those 13 cards and arrange them in your chosen order
  3. Week 1: Focus on Card #1. Read all quotes daily. Pray through one each morning. Journal applications.
  4. Week 2: Move to Card #2. Previous virtue stays in background prayer
  5. Continue through all 13 weeks (one quarter)
  6. Print fresh copies and repeat—four cycles per year for deep formation
"I was surprised to find myself so much fuller of faults than I had imagined; but I had the satisfaction of seeing them diminish."
— Benjamin Franklin, on his systematic virtue practice
The Christian Adaptation: Where Franklin relied on self-effort, Christians understand that transformation comes through grace and the Holy Spirit's work. The systematic approach isn't about earning righteousness but about intentionally cooperating with God's sanctifying work. UBLikeJesus2 provides the daily Scripture and wisdom; prayer provides the power.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly do I receive when I purchase?
Two PDF files delivered instantly via download: (1) Card Deck PDF with 85 printable cards (1 product intro + 34 virtue intros + 50 module cards), and (2) Ebook PDF with the same content in flowing book format. Both files are personalized with your full name on every card and page.
Is this only for Catholics/Protestants/specific denomination?
UBLikeJesus2 is designed for Christians across all traditions. The quotes draw from Scripture (which all Christians share), Church Fathers (valued across traditions), mystics and theologians from both Eastern and Western Christianity, and contemporary voices from evangelical, mainline, Catholic, and Orthodox backgrounds. The focus is on Christlike character—something all Christians pursue.
How does this differ from a regular devotional book?
Three key differences: (1) Format flexibility—print cards to carry with you, write on, and use tactilely rather than just reading; (2) Multi-voice approach—each virtue includes quotes from Scripture AND Christian writers across 2,000 years, giving multiple perspectives on each quality; (3) Systematic coverage—34 virtues provide comprehensive character formation rather than scattered topics.
What are the "six wisdom traditions" included?
Each module draws primarily from Christian Scripture and tradition (~40%—Biblical verses, Church Fathers, mystics, theologians, saints). This is supplemented by Universal/Eclectic wisdom (~25%), Positive Psychology insights (~15%), Stoic philosophy (~10%—which influenced early Christian ethics), Buddhist/Mindfulness (~5%—contemplative parallels), and other global traditions (~5%). The Christian emphasis ensures theological soundness while the breadth provides rich perspective.
Can I use this for small group or church study?
Yes! The card format works well for groups. Each member can have their own printed copies of the cards being studied. The virtue introductions provide theological context, and the quotes offer discussion starters. Many churches use similar resources for Lenten studies, discipleship groups, or new member formation. However, each person wanting their own personalized copy should purchase separately.
How long would it take to work through all 34 virtues?
Entirely up to you. One virtue per week = 34 weeks (about 8 months). One virtue per month = nearly 3 years of formation. Many users prefer a rotating approach: select 12-13 virtues most needed now, work through them quarterly, then select different virtues for the next year. There's no "right" pace—the goal is transformation, not completion.
I want something in Afrikaans. Is that available?
UBLikeJesus2's 34-virtue framework was originally inspired by "Meer en meer soos Jesus" by Elise Grey—an Afrikaans Bible study workbook. For readers who prefer Afrikaans, we recommend Grey's original workbook, available from Kakkerlak Boekhandelaars. UBLikeJesus2 expands this framework with 5,000+ quotes in English for a global audience.
Can I print these on a regular printer?
Yes! The PDFs are designed for standard A4 paper on any home or office printer. We recommend duplex (double-sided) printing for cards so front and back are on the same sheet. Use heavier paper (100-120gsm) for more durable devotional cards, or standard 80gsm for everyday journaling use.
What's your refund policy?
Due to the personalized nature of the PDFs and instant digital delivery, all sales are final. However, if there are any issues with your files (technical problems, printing errors, etc.), contact us immediately and we'll resolve it. We want you to have a blessed experience with your collection.
