When I started memorizing Scripture, I leaned on the Bible Memory App to stay organized and keep track of what I was learning. It worked until I realized having my phone nearby during quiet time wasn't helping my heart or habits. If anything, I found myself reaching for it to scroll more than reflect. Maybe you can relate? Phone use is something I’ll probably always wrestle with.

A year or two ago, I came across a YouTube video by Josh Summers. He interviewed someone who created a Scripture Memory Binder and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I wrote more about that video in my blog post from 7/11, if you want to check it out. Basically, it takes what’s usually done digitally and moves it onto paper.

Honestly, I think there is a shift in how we want to use our time. We’re seeing people step back from tech-heavy routines and return to simpler, slower rhythms. I’m all for good tech (I use Logos, Blue Letter Bible, and Bible Hub for deeper study), but when it comes to Scripture memory and study, give me a Bible, pens, and a notebook any day.

So, I made my own Scripture Memory Binder. In this video, I walk you through how it’s set up and how you can personalize one for your own spiritual journey. I’ve tweaked sections over time, and what I show here is what I’ll be using this year. Hope it’s helpful!
