Memory Work as Microscopic Bible Reading

Memorizing portions or large chunks of scripture has the benefit of forcing you to become very familiar with a section. Because you spend time looking at it, reciting, and chewing on it to move it into your long-term memory, you start to notice things you might not have before. * Pick a Bible translation and stay with it. * Start with a couple of verses and move on to bigger sections.

Bible Reading with Children

Christian parents have a responsibility to train their children to know and love the Lord. The only source for that knowledge is in the Bible, although the particular methods of teaching and training need to be thoughtfully applied based on your knowledge of your own particular children. In this episode we discuss when to start reading the Bible to and with them, how to help it stick in their minds, and how to approach things like storybook Bibles. This is a public episode.

The Importance of Daily Bible Reading

We’re entering Season 2 of the Office Hours Podcast, and we triangulate our reading focus to look at reading the Bible specifically. To begin with, can you be a Christian without reading your Bible? Is it sinful to not read your Bible every day? We show what we love by what we do, so without adding to the Bible’s commands, we ought to recognize that as Christians, we’re expected to be regularly reading and meditating on the Word of God. This is true for all of us, but especially as Christian parents, we’re told to teach these things to our children; they are to be so much a part of our life that we talk of them when we sit down and when we walk, when we lie down and when we rise up (Deuteronomy 6:6-8). In this episode we discuss the importance and blessing of daily Bible reading. Register for Summer Teacher Training, happening July 22-23!Visit https://wolfsheadhouse.org/ This is a public episode.
