Jared and Bobby Napiltonia discuss the current SaaS go-to-market landscape, covering the future of subscriptions, AI in pricing and customer support, and evolving channel dynamics. They highlight AI's impact on industries, the rise of robotics, and the changing review site landscape. Emphasis is placed on adaptation, partnerships, niche markets, vertical SaaS, off-balance sheet resources, system integrators, second-party data, and market-based thinking. Understanding customer industries and building partnerships with conviction and perseverance are key themes.Takeaways:The SaaS go-to-market landscape is undergoing significant changes, and businesses need to adapt to stay competitive.The future of subscriptions is uncertain, and outcome-based pricing may become more prevalent.AI has the potential to revolutionize pricing and customer support, but it needs to be applied strategically and with a focus on customer success.The channel will play a crucial role in the future of go-to-market strategies, and businesses should consider regional expertise and trusted partners.Industries like manufacturing and welding are being disrupted by AI and robotics, leading to changes in labor markets and job requirements.Review sites are losing credibility, and businesses should focus on building trust and leveraging word-of-mouth recommendations. Partnerships and ecosystems play a crucial role in the SaaS industry, enabling companies to reach niche markets and provide specialized solutions.Vertical SaaS is gaining popularity as businesses seek industry-specific solutions that cater to their unique processes and requirements.Off-balance sheet resources, such as partnerships, can provide cost-effective solutions and expertise that companies may not have in-house.Understanding the customer's industry and challenges is essential for effective selling and building successful partnerships.Conviction and perseverance are key in building partnerships and driving success in the SaaS industry.Chapters:00:00 Introduction and Revisiting the Past03:25 The Uncertain Future of Subscriptions06:26 AI's Impact on Pricing and Customer Support09:12 The Role of the Channel in Go-to-Market Strategies11:18 Disruption and Opportunities in Manufacturing and Robotics14:34 The Decline of Review Sites and the Importance of Trust21:32 The Changing Landscape of System Integrators23:41 The Value of Second-Party Data in a Cookieless World26:05 Understanding the Customer's Industry and Challenges31:08 Building Partnerships with Conviction and Perseverance

Jonathan is also a teaching pastor and the author of Authentic Influencer. Together, Jonathan and Jason explore ways to overcome some of the challenges that society presents to us in ministry.

What is the Marxist theory of class? Did Marx have a mature class theory in Capital or is Marx's theory of class unfinished and ultimately unclear? Many scholars contend that Marx does not have a clear class theory. But too often Marxists do not offer any alternative to the theory of class, so Marxism ends up with very little to say about class. Our guest in this episode, Raju Das, disagrees with many contemporary Marxists who tend to sideline Marx's theory of class. In this conversation, we learn that Marx does have a theory of class and we break it all down and show how central it is to his thought.  We begin with a critique of Analytical Marxist and Post-structuralist Marxist theories of class and we learn about a more materialist and dialectical foundation for class theory. Das helps us to theorize class at both the transhistorical level and at the level of capitalism.  Raju Das is the author of Marxist Class Theory for a Skeptical World.

When Jamie Wheal comes on Bulletproof Radio we always dig into mind-bending topics. This time, our conversation spans a special four-part mini-series to discuss his new book: “Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex and Death in a World That's Lost its Mind.” In this Part 3 episode, we talk about the “meaning crisis” and the role of biohacking in human consciousness.Jamie makes the case that more than ever people generally distrust and scrutinize larger governing institutions. When people don't trust the things they used to trust, they're led to greater stress, less connection and are more likely to reach for extremism and nihilism. “​​Any belief system where people are doubling and tripling down in the face of contravening evidence, that's happening, and so is nihilism, where people are just giving up knowing anything at all or the fact that anything is actually ever truly knowable,” Jamie says. “We see the rise in diseases and despair and all the accompanying rudderlessness. We're in a tight spot, and it's not happening in a vacuum, right?”Our conversation focuses on ways to find belonging and how you can be in tune with the part of yourself that wants to flee in times of stress. You can get out of a hive-mind centered world, which keeps your body in hyper-stress mode, and instead get into prioritizing range and resiliency in your body, mind and heart. In order to transform cultural consciousness, Jamie's research found five techniques that most commonly help you do that: respiration, embodiment, sexuality, substances and music.

Welcome to another a partners-only edition of The Payneful Truth. Today's ruminations concern little subjects like the nature of the gospel, evangelism and the importance of catechism. Is it worth fixing? The washing machine was flashing ‘F06', and as my eyes scanned down the list of error messages in the dog-eared manual, I knew in advance what it was going to say. Not something simple like “F03—“Turn the tap on, you idiot” or “F10—“Clean the filter like you were supposed to do every six months but haven't done for six years, you idiot”. Of course it was: “F06—Call our service department, and get ready to bleed cash, you poor sap”. And so the internal debate begins. Is it worth fixing? Do I want to pour $400 into a 15-year-old washing machine? Or pay $1000 for a new one? $400 would be good value if you got another 10 years out of it. But will we? Is this a good-money-after-bad scenario?I hate these sorts of dilemmas, but every exercise in repair or renovation raises them. I've been thinking in this vein recently about the revision of Two ways to live (2wtl). The 2wtl outline itself has been around now for around 40 years, with only minor nips and tucks over that time. The training material that utilises it is nearly as old, and had its last major revision about 20 years ago. It's certainly time for some renovation, but is it worth it? Or was 2wtl great for its time and context, but now just no longer relevant or useful? Would it be better to start again? This leads to the underlying questions: Why have a gospel outline in the first place? And how would you evaluate what a good one was like? Thinking back over the many conversations I've had about this since my involvement with 2wtl started in the early-80s, I think I'd summarize the rationale and nature of a gospel outline in the following six points (I guess it has to be six). OneAny outline like 2wtl is predicated on the idea that the gospel is a certain thing and not something else—that it has identifiable content that is capable of being summarized, learned and shared. A gospel is not a philosophy or a theory (although it has philosophical underpinnings and implications); it is not a story (although it has narrative elements, and often sits within a larger historical story); and it is not primarily an answer to a question that we have (although depending on the news it may answer certain questions). A ‘gospel' is the announcement of grand news. It's a trumpet blast declaring that something of great import has happened. In the case of the NT gospel, it is an announcement that certain meaningful events have taken place concerning Jesus Christ, leading to a particular state of affairs now being in effect, and a particular future being in store. (In this sense, the NT gospel announcement has the character of a promise—to be heard, believed and acted upon.) TwoWhat is the identifiable content of this announcement? It is that the crucified and risen Jesus has been established as the Christ, the Lord of all the world; that God now offers forgiveness of sins by Jesus' atoning death to all who repent and trust in him; and that in the future he will return to judge the world and save his people. Or something like that. We could argue about the precise way of putting it, how to connect the elements of the announcement together, and what background knowledge might be required to understand the announcement (e.g., knowing what ‘sins' are, or what a ‘Christ' is). But the gospel is a thing like this—a declaration of the meaning and implications of certain historical events. It's not a malleable set of metaphors that answers certain human longings. It's an announcement about Jesus that calls for a response from us. ThreeHow do we know this? How do we discover that the NT gospel is an announcement with this kind of content? The answer (as always) is to be good apprentices and sit at the feet of the apostolic authors—starting with the nutshell gospel preaching of the Gospels (“The time is fulfilled and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe the gospel”), through to the commission to preach the gospel to the nations in Luke 24, the actual examples of gospel proclamation in Acts, and the retrospective summaries of the gospel contained in the epistles (classically in places like 1 Cor 15:1-8). If we attend to these carefully, we discover a consistent core of content—a ‘tradition' as the NT sometimes calls it—that was to be kept, guarded, preached, taught, and passed on. This is in fact how 2wtl was originally written—through a process of looking at all the gospel summaries and gospel-preaching examples of the NT, identifying the core elements of the announcement and how they fitted together, and seeking to summarize them in a coherent, memorable, understandable form. FourThis leads me to a little sidebar. In pondering whether or how to renovate 2wtl, I've been looking over the various bits of feedback and critique we've received over the years. One of the more significant recent ones is found in Sam Chan's book Evangelism in a Skeptical World. Sam claims that 2wtl was written as a brilliant exercise in 1980s gospel contextualization. According to Sam, 2wtl was a success because it targeted the ex-Sunday-School-going prodigal-son university types of that period, who resonated with the idea of giving up their rebellion and submitting again to God. But that was then. Sam argues that 2wtl's main concepts (or ‘metaphors', as he calls them) of God being the ruler, and us rejecting or rebelling against his rule, “find little existential traction in the postmodern West, where authority figures impose their artificially constructed laws upon us to take away our freedom and authenticity. That's why in the postmodern West our moral heroes are the rebels who resist and overthrow authorities such as kings to preserve freedom and authenticity. Think of the American Revolution. Or the Australian bushranger. Or Braveheart and his cry of ‘Freedom!'” (p. 86) I have to say I'm struggling to understand how the anti-authoritarianism of American revolutionaries, Aussie bushrangers and Braveheart are evidence that what was contextually brilliant in the 1980s no longer has postmodern existential traction. Not to mention that it's simply not how things were in the 1980s (or 70s or 90s for that matter)—people loved rebellion and hated submission to authority in the 80s every bit as much as they do today. Perhaps even more so, I would say. But the point of this little sidebar is to correct the record as to how 2wtl came to be written. What drove the choice of concepts was not a contextualized discernment as to which metaphors might have the most traction, but a principled effort to capture the essential elements and logic of the NT gospel, and to express that in contemporary language for biblically illiterate Australians. (This raises an important larger issue, not only in Sam's thinking about evangelism, but for contemporary evangelism and apologetics more broadly—namely, whether or not it is the task of evangelism to identify what messages will have ‘traction' in our culture, and to craft our gospel message accordingly. I will come back to this in the near future, but it is more than this particular edition can cope with.) FiveWhy, we must now ask, is summarizing the gospel in a short memorable form a good idea? The main reason is the one that the NT gives whenever it does so—such as in 1 Cor 15:1-8. Paul wants to remind his readers of the gospel he preached, to lodge it firmly in their minds, so that they will hold fast to it and be saved. In other words, a gospel summary or outline is very useful as a form of catechesis—for teaching Christians the basic truths of the gospel in a way that they can grasp, learn and internalize. 2wtl was designed in part to serve this function: to lodge a simple gospel-shaped framework of belief in Christian heads. Interestingly, many of the suggestions we've received over the years to improve 2wtl have asked for it to be more doctrinal than it is—to be more explicit or detailed about the Trinity, the person and work of the Spirit, the nature of imputed righteousness, and so on. Our answer has always been that the ‘gospel' is not the sum total of the Christian faith, although it is the structuring, animating centre. None of the excellent and important doctrinal themes that have been suggested over the years form part of the gospel preaching or gospel summaries of the NT—which is why they never made it into 2wtl. SixThe other obvious (and related) purpose of a gospel outline like 2wtl is to give Christians confidence and competence in sharing the gospel with others—to ‘believe and therefore speak' (2 Cor 4:13). As I reflect back over the history of 2wtl as a resource, I think it's in this area that we have most consistently failed to explain what 2wtl is for. 2wtl was designed to be an easy-to-remember skeleton summary of the key concepts of the gospel. And like all skeletons, it needs flesh and blood in order to live. 2wtl is like six memorable hooks on which to hang a conversation, or six unforgettable landmarks on a map to arrive at a destination. It was never meant to be trotted out (or handed out) as a bullet-point gospel presentation. All the same, it has been criticized over the years for not being warm enough, or relational enough, or joyful enough, or existentially authentic enough—all things that skeletons can never be. The warmth and joy and relational authenticity come in the personal conversation that the outline equips you to have. (Or for that matter in the gospel talk or Bible study or relational 5-week course that the outline helps you to structure.) Any revision of 2wtl needs to make this clearer! What must I do?I think I might have persuaded myself that 2wtl is worth renovating rather than scrapping. After all this time, it remains a very effective attempt at capturing the core content and logic of the NT gospel—a gospel that hasn't changed in the past 40 or 400 years. It's worth looking again at how it could be sharpened and improved, and whether any of its language is now dated or less communicative. And in particular, it's worth going back to square one and thinking through how to utlilize the outline more effectively for catechising Christians and equipping them for gospel speech. To that end, I'm hoping you might help me. Later this week, I'll send around a draft revision of the 2wtl outline—just to Payneful Truth partners. I'd really appreciate your feedback and comments!

In today's episode, we hear from Sam Chan on the theology of evangelism.Chan is the author of Evangelism in a Skeptical World. He is a public evangelist with City Bible Forum in Sydney, Australia, where he regularly shares the gospel with high-school students, city workers, doctors, and lawyers.In this lecture, Chan discusses the meaning of evangelism and that it is defined by its message rather than its audience. His lecture helps us to understand that we need a theology of evangelism and that evangelism means that we communicate the gospel to others. Chan points to the use of the Greek word euaggelion in the Bible which means, the amazing news of Jesus Christ. Chan encourages us to understand that there are many ways to communicate the gospel and that believers begin their journey by hearing the gospel but are able to continue that journey because they continue to hear the gospel.If you like what you hear, visit our website at MasterLectures.ZondervanAcademic.com, where you can watch more of John's lectures on the Old Testament, along with thousands of other lectures on the Bible and theology.

This weekend, we continued our journey through the Thessalonians by looking at Paul's instruction for the grieving church. The church faced tremendous persecution and their great hope was the return of Christ to rescue them out of it. In their minds, Jesus could return at any time. They could deal with the persecution knowing that Jesus was coming back any day, but as the days went by, Jesus didn't come back, and on top of that, believers were dying, what would happen to them? Paul is concerned that they learn appropriate Christian grief, instead of the wild and hopeless mourning that typified pagan funerals. We will look into the eyes of Christ who comforts the grieving and offers hope in victory.
