Let me be honest…when it comes to scripture memory, I have been lazy. Sad but true. But, now I have some help, and it’s working!
Our church is in the middle of a sermon series titled “Ten Squared: 100 Verses Everyone on Earth Should Know by Heart.” As a help to the congregation, our church staff have created flash cards on a ring (like the picture to the left), and it has been so helpful! I am brushing up on verses I memorized in college and at the same time learning new verses! This has been so much fun and quite effective.
If you are a teacher, pastor or leader trying to give your team/people a tool that will help them memorize scripture (families in particular) this is a huge help. This is even helping our kids! Most people are not going to go through the trouble (lack of discipline) to make flash cards on a ring. However, if you (as a leader) can take the time to do this or have your support staff do this, people will use these:
- in the car
- while brushing their teeth
- waiting in line at Wendy’s
- on their lunch break
- during an oil change
- in the airport
- around the supper table
- or on a flight to Cleveland
For more information about these, you can contact Curt, Adult Mininster at The Donelson Fellowship, by calling 615.871.4767. Peace out!
Is it easier to memorize scripture when it’s printed in reverse, like in the photo?
Dude! I kept flipping that image…but no matter what I did, each time I saved it, it would not save the way I told it to! Odd. Anyway, thanks for noticing.
