063: Strategies for Memorizing with Children
Psalm 127 teaches us that children are the heritage of the Lord and the fruit of the womb is His reward. How do we cherish and nurture these gifts from the Lord correctly? We do so by instructing them in His ways by teaching our children the Word. Scripture memory is a vital way for them to learn. It slows them down to hear it and naturally leads to meditation. Memorizing with children is often easier said than done. In this episode, our hosts will discuss various memorization techniques with them.

058: Quiet Consistency (ft. Daniel Louis)
Scripture memorization deserves to be a normal part of the Christian life. Yet, all too often, we view Bible memory as the spiritual equivalent of running a marathon. Since most people aren't running this marathon with us, it can be tempting to think we're going the extra mile in our walk with Christ by memorizing Scripture. In this episode, special guest Daniel Louis discusses "quiet consistency" in Scripture memorization. Rather than viewing it as a special achievement, Daniel views it as one of the most basic components of spiritual formation. Join us for this episode as we explore what it means to embrace Scripture memory as a normal and essential part of the Christian life.Support the showThe Scripture Memory Podcast is made possible by the generous support of listeners like you.

It not only edifies God’s people but also challenges them to start their own Scripture memory journey. In this episode, we have a special guest, Aaron House, the Executive Director of Piercing Word Ministries. Piercing Word ignites passion for the Word of God in the heart of the Church, engaging people with live Scripture Performances.

055 - Deep Cuts: Why and How to Memorize Obscure Biblical Texts
Most streaming services have a “Deep Cuts” playlist showcasing an artist’s more obscure songs. It is so rewarding to explore those tunes. We often find hidden gems. Consider Scripture memory in the same way. Of course, we want to memorize the Bible’s greatest hits. However, because “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness” (2 Tim. 3:16), the Holy Spirit has something to say and teach in every verse. Our souls will be nourished when we commit these more obscure passages to memory. In today’s episode. We will discuss the why and how of memorizing the Bible’s “Deep Cuts.” Tune in for another informative episode of The Scripture Memory Podcast. Click here to get SwordGrip Old Testament: Volume 2.
