In this day and age of technology and information overload, it's increasingly
difficult to find time and solitude to focus on God's Word. That is why
it is more important than ever to hide God's Word in our hearts. A few
years ago, we enrolled a 2 of our boys in the FBMA memory program as a
way to motivate them to memorize Scripture. Then, their younger sister
wanted to do it, too, and a couple of our teens. They all really like
getting a christianbook.com gift certificate to spend as they choose when
they complete a memory book. When I saw my teens memorizing in their entirety
some of the smaller books of the New Testament, I desired to once again
commit Scripture to memory as I did in my childhood and youth. So, I also
enrolled in FBMA. In the last 18 mos., I've memorized Philippians and
James and am about to complete 1 John. The insights that God reveals through
His Word to my heart as I memorize Scripture are more precious than anything
that can be purchased with a gift certificate. I believe it is changing
me; it is renewing my mind, in a way that simply reading God's Word cannot.
My mind needs a lot of renewing because I know I do not yet have the mind
of Christ, so I want to continue memorizing as long as I possible can.
I thank God for FBMA and for the positive difference it is making!

FBMA pocket-size memory books are very convenient to carry and memorize
from. The setup of weekly assignments and accountability to my hearer
help me stay on track to complete the book in a 15 week course. Of course
the real reward is to mature in my walk with God.

I first started memorizing through BMA in 1977 and have memorized almost
every year since. The pocket-sized memory books made it very handy to
memorize scripture. The collections of verses in each book were well-chosen
and the notes helpful. Finally, the rewards received were an additional
blessing. With the exception of the notes, FBMA has continued this tradition.
