Tips for Memorizing Scripture
- Have a memorization Partner! You can let us know who your partner is or sign up for a partner or two HERE.
- Read through the whole text several times before beginning to memorize in sections.
- Write it down. Write the verses several times in a notebook every day.
- Put the verses in places you will see it throughout the day (sticky note on mirror, fridge, and desk; make it your phone and computer background)
- Listen to it. Read it out loud. Record yourself reading the verses and listen while driving or before bed. Find songs with the words of the verses.
- Engage with the text. Reflect on the meaning of the words you are memorizing. Talk about it with others. Pray about what speaks to you from the text.
- Use a Bible Memorization App (Verses, Scripture Singer, Bible Memory)
- Use flashcards. Write the first letter of each word of the verse on the front and the whole verse on the back.
