For example, knowing the general structure of the Gospel of John so you can recall where stories or teachings are found. I – Individual Verses: This is the traditional approach—memorizing single, key verses. N – Narrative Stories: Learning the stories themselves—being able to recall and retell the narratives found in the Bible, even if not word-for-word. T – Topical: Memorizing verses or passages that speak to a particular topic, like anxiety, hope, or the gospel message (such as the Romans Road).
