First the business side of things, then the Christian side of things.

I ascribe to a similar business thought process as Marcus Lemonis: look for people, process, and product. I have read through all of your pages, including the articles you link to, and here is the "people" part that I see. There is you. You seem to have a background as a marriage book writer and some sort of amateur family counselor. It doesn't seem like you have an professional training in this, however your books have been mildly successful.

Next there is your team which seems to be a "technical person from a large silicon valley company". And that's all we know about that. Finally, there is your wife who is mentioned in a few places, who is a business professor at Stanford. I'm including her because, well, there aren't that many other people to include.

A small team can make a ton of progress on a new product or business like this. But yours isn't working. The people, you included, are not helping us to feel your pain, understand the problem you are trying to fix, or help us to know how your product will fix that problem at all. As far as I can tell you are a desperate minister trying to make a pension, not a concerned manager of a not for profit babysitting assistance program.

From a process prospective it seems what you have done is the bare minimum to try to get to your goal (remember: we think your goal is to get a pension not make a product). The Lean movement says to test out your theory and then grow from there, so you could argue that you are trying to follow Lean. But honestly, if you are, you need to take a step back and try again with more detail and from a different angle.

Finally, product. Well, you don't seem to have a product. You are putting mothers on "mommy dates". Is this an unsolved problem now? Is this not something that Facebook, local community centers, churches, and other meeting places do already? And in fact doesn't your service make this more dangerous, because it speeds up the already dangerous process of trying to find a suitable person to watch your children? You see companies that provide baby sitting services for a fee take on a serious level of liability. They say for your money, we are going to make sure we have qualified professionals that will not harm your children. You, on the other hand, are saying for no fee I am going to show your 1 minute video to other people and hopefully they will be the right fit for you. That's not a product anyone wants.

The second problem with your product (and honestly there are probably a hundred more, but I think I will stop here), is you are discounting others lifestyles. You haven't said this in words but this is the impression I get: "You are a stay at home mom, she is a working mom who can't watch her kids, you should help her. It's the right thing to do." You haven't spoken about how a stay at home mom should value her time (read: pricing the babysitting services she is providing), how the stay at home mom should decide how much babysitting to provide, or how the stay at home mom should mitigate her own liability when taking in other peoples children to babysit. There are many other questions you have not answered for your potential customers. So, you have no product.

Now, for the Christian part. I am a very devote Christian myself, by my own measurement very active in my church and my faith, and frankly I don't see how this is a ministry. You are a Minister who would like a pension paid for by (what I consider personally) the sacred funds that people have donated to help the churches and faiths cause. We, those who donate to a Christian church, do so because we believe that money should go to the work of the Lord. Is this the work of the Lord? Heck, I am not sure this is even work for you, let alone work of the Lord. Why not help the poor, the homeless, abused children, single mothers, battered women... the list goes on. I am not here to tell you what to do as a Christian. I believe this could, possibly, be a business someday. But I don't believe this is a Christian Ministry. Pick one or the other.
