Memorizing Bible verses is a skill and discipline that yields lifelong rewards (Joshua 1:8; Psalm 1:2-3). Learn Bible verses together with your child. Discover the marvelous mental potential that God has given to you.

- Show the kids that you memorize Bible passages, too. Encourage parents to memorize the same Bible verse each week as well.
- Emphasize the importance of repeated exposure to the weekly Bible verse at church, home, and even school. Encourage parents to copy the weekly memory card and include it in their child’s lunchbox.
