Memorizing Bible verses is a daunting task for most Christians. We start and quit and try and fail and finally abandon this crucial discipline because we are frustrated and ashamed by our efforts. Learn why we are to memorize, what benefits our efforts produce, and how to implement a system that will last. This workshop can be presented in a one session overview. Or it can expanded to two or three 45 minutes sessions for in depth study and hands-on participation during a day conference or retreat weekend.

Are you a young single, a career woman, preschool parent, soccer mom, harried high school referee, empty nester, sandwich generation, or senior citizen?

This versatile workshop can be adapted for one, two, or three sessions of 45 minutes each for a day conference or overnight retreat.
