Scripture Memory Challenge

I mentioned to several of you today, that I am looking for a "few good men" to join me in getting more serious about committing scripture to memory. The first challenge I submit is to memorize a passage from Ephesians, a book that should be familiar to us all. Parallel to the Wild at Heart study, we are going to memorize one verse a week from Ephesians 1:3-14. By the time the Wild at Heart study is over, we should have the whole passage committed to memory.

I encourage both those who attend the study on Friday and those just on the email list to join in. If you cannot attend, just email me the memorized passage weekly (just reply to my weekly email and let me know what version you are memorizing) and no cheating :). I think you will see that the cumulative impact of memorizing a passage versus individual verses should help a bit. The key is to not fall behind.

Due by next Friday, May 16th:

"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ." Eph 1:3 (NIV)
