5 Ways Scripture Memory Will Impact Your Family

Our church's scripture meditation theme for the month of June is "God's Holiness."  My church is in the habit of memorizing Bible verses according to a specific topic on a monthly basis.  In August, we will have completed 6 years of memorizing scripture with this plan.  For the first 5 years, my church memorized verses on the theme of "Discipleship."  By the end of 5 years,

The Battle of the Mind

It is so important to realign my thinking with God's Word.  A really "bad day," or some sleep deprivation can totally turn my thinking to a more feelings based foundation instead of a truth based reality.  Then my thoughts run to conclusions that drive me to disappointing, or even shocking, actions.  "This is impossible!" or "nobody truly loves me!" are both lies that every believer has either considered (but then talked yourself back to reality) or fully embraced. These lies (and many other lies like them) are powerful enough to...

7 Ways to Live Your Life

4 Targets to Help Know Your Bible

How well do you know the Word of God?  I am pretty sure that the average believer wouldn't call himself a novice, but he also wouldn't call himself a Bible scholar.  Let me ask the same question a different way - do you know the Word of God better today than you did a year ago today?  What verses have you memorized over the last year? Do you purposely take time to memorize scripture? Statistics show that those who regularly read, study, and memorize the Bible often have a specific time and place they dig into the Bible every day.  So, what time of day and in what place do you do your daily "digging into the Word?"  By this time you might be thinking something like: "None of your business...that is between me and the Lord!"  Well...it is between you and the Lord -- but it is also a command from the Lord.  I am asking you to be transparent with yourself today...to stop the excuses and be honest.

So, let me start with some transparency on my part.  Back in 1994, I
