Scripture Memorization

For almost two months now I have been working on Psalm 27 trying to memorize it.  It has been slow going.  My brain just doesn't retain information like it used to.  To be completely honest, I haven't spent as much time as I probably should to get it memorized.  The older the brain the more time needed. But that doesn't mean that I am giving up.  I will continue to press on.
Candace's post has inspired me to push forward. There are at least a couple of Bible memorization challenges that you can read about on her blog.

Since I have been struggling a bit with memorizing I decided to search out some techniques that might help.  Here is what I came up with...

First of all, I am using this method of keeping the verses close at hand that I am memorizing. The cards and the accordion moleskine are perfect to take anywhere.  They travel with me in my purse in case there is a bit of time to work on them.

Here is a long list of ideas to help with memorization.

Here is some online help.

Here is a way to memorize all of Philippians.

So I have decided that I am going to take the Mega Memory Month Challenge to try to finish off memorizing Psalm 27.  I have barely memorized half of the chapter so hopefully this challenge will spur me on to finish!
