5-Year Bible Memory Plans
The battle for your mind is intense! Modern media outlets understand the need for regular repetition to establish a certain pattern of thinking and personal opinion. Imagine what would happen if every believer chose to reset the “default settings” of their mind with the standard of truth — the Words of God. Take time today to “think on these things” (Philippians 4:8) and rehearse the truth (the Bible) over and over through each day. The powerful impact on your desires, choices, habits, and character will not be disappointing!
Our newest Bible Memory Plan theme - DISCIPLESHIP - is actually our original theme! You may recognize this plan from 15 years ago. We will take time to review our very first theme with which we began our Bible memory journey in 2009. We will continue this plan (one verse per month) from 2024 through 2028 — the second year of this plan is now listed below. This means that the second verse listed for each month is the verse for that topical theme in 2025.
Please Note: Another year of Bible verses will be added at the end of each December. At the conclusion of 2028, we will have memorized 60 Bible verses connected to the 12 different topics listed below.
