Four Different Memorization Techniques for Psalm 1

As we prepare to memorize Psalm 1, I want to introduce the four different approaches that will be used in the podcast to help you commit it to memory. When we begin Psalm 1, make sure you have your favorite drink (mine is coffee, though I think I may need to cut back! 🙂), along with your Bible, pens, notebook, and notecards. If you don’t have notecards, don’t worry! You can always grab some later if you’d like.  For those who will be starting the Scripture Memory Workshop this Tuesday (June 10), I have one just for you—so no need to go out and buy one! 

I hope this helps all of you!
