Very practical guide

This is a very practical guide to memorising scripture. Well written with great tips, this guide walks you through the process of memorisation in a clear and easy to follow way. Beyond rote memorisation and repetition, the author does well in reminding us of the why of memorisation and not just the how. Great little guide. Would recommend!

This was a good little book, actually more like a booklet. It was free and I really wanted to read it to find some tips on memorizing scripture. When we had the Internet at home I was enjoying using the ScriptureTyper website. Now that I don't have that I am struggling more to learn, and review, my verses. I did find some tips in the book, but mostly it just says that you need to go over the verse(s) every day and set up a time to learn new ones and to review the ones you already learned. Yeah, I know. Doing it is the hard thing.

I am doing pretty well on my verses for the year. My goal was 24 verses, which is of course 2 a month. At least I have not given up. I want to keep memorizing scripture. I need the verses for the battles Satan throws my way every day. I need all my armor on... including having the Sword of the Spirit,which is the work of God, readily available. (Eph. 6:17) It is no good to have to go look something up when Satan attack my mind. I need verses ready in the moment. So I want to work on my memorizing, it is something I have neglected most of my adult life.

Since the book was free it was worth the read. It only took me a few minutes to read the booklet. I will be trying the techniques they taught in the book. I don't remember what it's original price was but I probably wouldn't pay more than a dollar for it, two at the most.
