The concept for Read the Scriptures originated while Wayne was watching the October 2005 General Conference of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and contemplating President Gordon B. Hinckley's recent challenge to all church members to read the Book of Mormon by the end of the year. He thought of developing this program for his own use, and then realized the potential of how such a system could benefit others as well.

The following quote from President Ezra Taft Benson, featured in the October 2005 Ensign, verified to them that it would be a positive service to build and provide:

"The time is long overdue for a massive flooding of the earth with the Book of Mormon for the many reasons which the Lord has given. In this age of electronic media and mass distribution of the printed word, God will hold us accountable if we do not now move the Book of Mormon in a monumental way."
(President Ezra Taft Benson, “Flooding the Earth with the Book of Mormon,” Ensign, Oct. 2005, 60)
