AI Summary

This video reveals a lucrative online business opportunity centered on creating a scripture-based web app that serves Bible verses to people seeking comfort. The creator demonstrates how to build such an app using Hostinger Horizons, an AI-powered platform, and monetize it through Google AdSense and template sales. The focus is on providing genuine value while generating income.

[00:02]
Massive Demand for Scripture Online

Millions search monthly for Bible verses for anxiety, depression, and feeling lost. A sample site received 83 million visits in a month, proving high demand.

[01:11]
Monetization Potential via Ads

The sample site uses Google AdSense. With 83M visits, 2 pages per visit, 2 ads per page, and $1 CPM, estimated monthly revenue is $332,000.

[02:36]
Building an App with Hostinger Horizons

Hostinger Horizons is an AI tool that builds web apps from a chat prompt. The creator recommends the starter plan for 25 websites, with a discount code 'journey'.

[04:13]
Crafting a Detailed Prompt

A generic prompt like 'Make me a Bible app' yields poor results. The creator uses a long, specific prompt to build a calm, respectful app with full Bible, devotionals, and emotion-based scripture lookup.

[05:36]
App Features: Emotion Check-in and Topics

The app asks 'How are you feeling today?' and provides scriptures based on emotion. It also has a topic section for exploring specific issues.

[06:15]
Daily Encouragement for Retention

A 'verse of the day' feature encourages daily return visits, turning one-time visitors into regular users.

[07:59]
Integrating Full Bible via API

Instead of storing the entire Bible, the app uses api.bible API to pull real scripture. Users sign up for free, get an API key, and authorize it in Horizons.

[10:28]
Monetization Strategy: Ads and Templates

Apply for Google AdSense after getting at least 100 visitors. Alternatively, turn the app into a remixable template on Horizons and earn up to $150 per remix.

[12:19]
Promoting the App via Social Media

Share daily verses on social media using AI tools like Google Gemini for visuals. The creator gained 20K followers in 7 days on TikTok and Instagram with 5 videos.

By building a scripture-based app with AI tools and promoting it strategically, you can create a sustainable online income while helping people find comfort. The key is to lead with intention and provide genuine value.

[00:02] thousands of years and this was long before the internet ever existed. And what's wild is right now I'm recording this from Egypt. One of the places where some of the oldest spiritual writings in human history [music] were ever

[00:14] recorded. But in 2026, the world's oldest book is quietly becoming the internet's [music] most undiscovered economy. Now, hold up >> [music] >> The word of God is not for sale. And

[00:28] nothing in this video is about exploiting faith. Right now, millions of people, including myself, are searching every single month online for things like Bible verses for anxiety, scriptures for depression, Bible verses

[00:42] for when you are feeling lost. And when you look at websites and apps that serve scripture-based guidance, you are going to see something that is very interesting. This site right here received over 83 million views last

[00:57] month alone. And why does this matter? Unique, I am so glad that you asked. It's because, first and foremost, I want to prove to you that the demand for scripture-based guidance online is massive. Now, if you look a little

[01:11] closely, you may just see a website here that has some scriptures on it. But I see potential. Why? Because, if you notice, they have ads on this page and this is where things get interesting. Why? Because those ads mean Google is

[01:26] paying them through advertising. So, they are not out here just trying to make money. They have built a place where people gather and where there are people, Google likes to be in the mix when it comes to advertising. And in

[01:39] case you are wondering, "Okay, Anne, what does that even mean?" Let me break this down for you even further. And I'm going to do it in a conservative way. So, we know this site gets about 83 million visits a month and according to

[01:52] SimilarWeb, users view about two pages per visit. Now, the amount of ads on each page, I'm going to just say two, but on the first page alone I saw at least four, but we are going to keep it cute. And we'll use a CPM of about a

[02:06] that for every thousand views they'll get paid a dollar. So, we add all of those numbers up, it means even at that level they are looking at at least $332,000 a month. Now, hold up, wait a minute.

[02:20] Before you go running out here trying to build a site right away, I want to say one thing. Will every single person who goes and builds this make $332,000 a month? Absolutely not. But, there is potential in this. We see that there is

[02:36] demand there, and we just want to fill the gap. And I'm willing to show you are probably wondering, "Okay, Monique. How in the world can you and me, someone with no coding skills, someone who has no experience, beginners, build an app

[02:50] just like that?" And first and foremost, I want you to know, yes, you absolutely can. And why? Because we are going to be using Hosting Her Horizons. This is an all-in-one AI partner that will let you build fully functioning web apps just by

[03:04] chatting with AI. All we have to do is enter an idea, it will instantly build it for us, and then we can just launch that thing with one click. [music] I know that probably sounds absolutely unbelievable, but let me make a believer

[03:17] along, you can go ahead and click the link in my description. And I'll show you how I was able to build this web app right here that you are looking at right now in just a few minutes. But, in order to get started with this, you will have

[03:31] to choose a plan, and honestly, I recommend going with the starter plan. You'll be able to create 25 websites, and I'll tell you a way that that's money. But, you can also sell subscriptions, digital products, and you

[03:45] can grow this into something real without overcomplicating it. If you go with the 12-month option, you are going to save more and you get a extra month for free as well as a free domain. On top of that, if you enter [music] my

[04:00] code journey, you'll get an additional 10% off. So, at this point, what we are going to do is choose create with Horizons and we'll see this chat box. And this is what we are going to tell this AI exactly what kind of Bible app

[04:13] we want to create. And this is also where most people mess up. Why? Because they enter things like "Make me a Bible app." And you know the only thing that will make you something that is basic, something that is generic, and honestly,

[04:26] something that is not very useful. So, instead, I am going to paste this very long detailed prompt here, and don't worry, I will be putting this down in the description so that you can tweak and make it your own. But what I am

[04:39] asking it to basically do is build a calm, respectful Bible app that helps people find scripture when they're actually going through something. I want the app to include the entire Bible the same way that these large apps do. And

[04:53] important, especially when it comes to what we are doing, is because that gives mass appeal and it helps this app to show up in search results when people are searching for scriptures. And one more thing I really want to add is

[05:08] devotionals. We're going to start with just one, and as far as which one I'll start with, considering the way that the world is going right now and is in >> [music] >> what better devotional to have than

[05:21] Peace in Chaos? So, once I entered every single thing that I am looking for this app to provide, in just a few minutes of it doing its thing behind the scenes, this is what it created. On the home page, you see that it asks a simple but

[05:36] powerful question, "How are you feeling today?" And then it gives options for them to choose from. And when you select on one of them, it's going to give you a word for your emotions [music] and some scriptures for your heart. And for those

[05:49] that cannot sum up how they are feeling in this moment [music] in one of those words, then it allows for them to type exactly how they feel and it will give that we built this site to meet people

[06:02] wherever they are. Now, there's also the topic section where you can explore things that actually matter to you and under each topic it gives a short explanation along with scriptures to study on that topic. Then there's also

[06:15] that daily encouragement which is basically the verse of the day. And that's something that I am strategically placing here because what that does, it continue to come back to this app. So,

[06:28] it's turning those one-time visits into daily habits. Now, of course we did add that 30-day devotional and [music] when we click on it, you'll see that it walks you through scripture, a reflection, it gives [music] a prayer and a small

[06:41] challenge for the day. So, I want your honest opinion. Let me know what you >> [music] >> And I say it so far because I want to also show you that you can make changes to this if you want to customize [music]

[06:55] it. So, you could manually edit things right here where it says edit content, but why would we do such a thing when we can just ask AI to change it for us? >> So, this is the request that I am putting in. I want it to change the

[07:08] background to white with brown accent, to rename the daily encouragement to daily word. Another thing I wanted to add is devotionals for every month.

[07:20] Again, that's a reason for people to continue to come back to this app. But [music] just like that, it is updating everything. This is the Bible in a year section and it's breaking down the passages day by day [music]

[07:33] so people can stay consistent without feeling overwhelmed. And then it breaks feeling overwhelmed. And then it breaks the devotionals down day [music] by day. There is different topics for every month of the year. It gives them moments

[07:46] of reflection. It breaks down the passage. Now, one thing you should have noticed that I skipped over, which is one of the most important sections, it's the Bible itself. And that's because when Hostinger generated the Bible for

[07:59] this app, it did not add the entire thing. Why? Because first and foremost, it has millions of words. That would take up a lot of space. That's a heavy task for it to do. And then that will make it more complicated for you later

[08:11] if you need to make changes. But there is a better way to do it, and that's going to be with using something called an API key. Now, don't let that scare you. That's basically some fancy words for [music] saying that we are going to

[08:23] create a secure way for the app to pull real scripture from a trusted source. [music] And the source for this task is going to be api.bible. You are able to sign up for this for free, and when [music] you sign up, you

[08:37] are going to be given an API key and an endpoint. [music] And that is what you are going to copy and paste into Horizon. But before you do that, you will have to authorize it, or else you will run into some problems, which I did

[08:51] in the very beginning. And another thing I had to come and do is come to this page here in api.bible, and I had to search for the Bible IDs for each of the versions that I wanted to add to my app. And once I did that,

[09:07] it was able to pull in everything over there. I'm talking about with multiple there. I'm talking about with multiple translations, all 66 books of the Bible. And you can maneuver through them. You can go chapter to chapter easily. It's

[09:21] all done, y'all. But a couple of things I do want to mention. First, I know you see my API key on here, and the only reason you do is because I regenerated one by the time you are watching this video. Your API key is like a password.

[09:35] thing. So, you must protect it at all goals. And then the next thing is, like I said, you can start for free. However, when it comes to you monetizing your

[09:47] app, basically once you get to the point where Google is paying you to place those ads on there, you can no longer use the free version. You will have to use the free version. You will have to have a commercial plan with api.bible.

[10:00] So, that's really important. You don't want to get yourself in trouble. And I actually do have the commercial plan. I signed up for it so that I can really show you how this will work [music] once you get to that point. But, after all of

[10:13] fully functioning, [music] it's respectable, it helps people, and it's ready to roll, the only thing that you have left to do is hit publish and it will officially be live with literally just one click. And look at

[10:28] what we have. Now, let me say something important before you just go running over to Google Ads and signing up for your free account there as well so that you can monetize this. I do not [music] suggest that you apply for monetization

[10:41] on day one. You want to build the sanctuary [music] first. You want to give your site a chance to have the daily word and your topics [music] and your devotionals live on it first. And then once you start seeing visitors come

[10:56] in, [music] I say at least 100, that's when you want to invite Google to if you don't want to have to wait and you're [music] ready to start making money right away, there is another way that you can do it. And this is

[11:09] something that I really love about Horizons. They have something that is called remixable templates. So, what that means is once you build your Bible app with your daily word, your devotional layout, all your topic pages,

[11:23] what you have created this point is a template and that is something that you can allow other people to use. So, you're probably like, I came up with this concept and you're telling me to now let other people use it. First of

[11:36] all, the answer is yes, and let me tell you why. It's because if you do that, someone actually uses your template, you can get paid up to $150. And that's from one single person remixing your template. So, if you get

[11:50] 10 people to do that, that's $1,600 in your pocket. So, if you decide to do this and once you build your app and you're ready to turn it into a remixable template, all you have to do is select this menu. You can choose let others

[12:04] [music] And at this point, you're not monetizing faith the scripture, you are monetizing the system that you built. So, after all of this is said and done, I know the next question that you come to is, okay, how do I actually get

[12:19] people to find this app? One thing I do want to mention is that it's going to That's why we were strategic with we were doing. But, I know we don't want to put all of our trust [music] in Google or people sharing it. Because even then,

[12:34] it can take some time for this thing to start growing. So, in the meantime, how can we stand in the gap? What can we do to draw those people in? Start utilizing your app and showing it off to people. You can start sharing those daily words

[12:49] every single day and get creative with it. Don't be afraid to use AI tools, y'all. They are out there to help us. You can use something like Google Gemini background, because you know people are visual and that will attract them. And

[13:05] then you can just put the verse of the day on there, and you can create social media pages for [music] your app. You can also maybe share some of the devotionals. You can talk about it and talk about from your personal

[13:18] experience how this is helping you. You want to just connect with people. Other things you can do is go over to chat GPT, tell it how you created this web app, and you are trying to find creative ways to show up online. You can ask it

[13:33] things like to give me 30 days of posts for Instagram. You can ask it what are strategic ways for me to reach people. I'm telling you it breaks it down for you and it helps you beyond anything else that you probably can imagine. You

[13:49] else that you probably can imagine. You can use Google VO3, or you can use Sora 2 to create videos. Maybe sharing some of the words. You can put those words to video because again, sometimes people are visual. I created a brand new

[14:03] Instagram and TikTok, created five videos telling the Bible in a very unique way, and I became monetized on TikTok in less than 5 days. I gained over 20,000 followers in less [music] than 7 days. And I'm talking about on

[14:20] TikTok and Instagram with the same five videos. And if you want me to show you exactly how I did it, then comment down below and I can bring that to you in tools are out there for you to use. You

[14:33] just have to pick it up and use it. One thing I do want to leave you with is when you lead with intention and not pressure, the traffic will follow the purpose. So I hope that this helps you out today, and if it did, make sure you

[14:47] meaningful. As [music] always, I thank you so much for watching and for your support, and until next time, go be great.
