"...until we all attain to the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a mature man, to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ." (Ephesians 4:13)

TPHS Bible Memory Update (Past 2 weeks)--28 students have quoted 349 Bible verses! (5491 words!)

Several of our students have gotten off to a fantastic start quoting Bible verses! The leader has quoted 46 verses (767 words). They get points by number of words, not number of verses. (So "Jesus wept." is two points. John 3:16 is 25 points, etc.) Please pray for these kids as they hide God's Word in their hearts! And pray that more students will soon start quoting verses!
Here's a great Chuck Swindoll quote on Bible Memory...

 “I know of no other single practice in the Christian life more rewarding, practically speaking, than memorizing Scripture… No other single exercise pays greater spiritual dividends! Your prayer life will be strengthened. Your witnessing will be sharper and much more effective. Your attitudes and outlook will begin to change. Your mind will become alert and observant. Your confidence and assurance will be enhanced. Your faith will be solidified” (Chuck Swindoll, Growing Strong in the Seasons of Life, p. 61). 

Are YOU memorizing any verses these days?

Stay in the battle!
