Last Week.
We wrapped up our small group series last week on the Bible by talking about the benefits and rewards of memorizing Scripture.
We focused on Psalm 119:9-16, a passage that offers a direct invitation and challenge to teenagers: If you want to lead a pure, healthy, successful life, then obey God’s teachings and commandments. This passage highlights several benefits and rewards of knowing, memorizing, and obeying the Bible.
Memorizing Scripture isn’t about doing a religious task. It’s about letting the Bible become an essential part of who we are. We reminded our students that when we memorize verses, those verses become part of the way we think about life and the way we respond to what happens in life.
When you find time this week, have a conversation with your teenager about this lesson on memorizing verses from the Bible. Here are some questions you might want to ask:
- How might memorizing verses from the Bible help you in everyday situations?
- If we didn’t have the Bible, how would we learn about God and his desires for our lives? Would that even be possible?
- How can you be reminded of your friendship with God by memorizing Scripture?
You also might want to consider ways to make Scripture memorization a family event. This can help everyone in the family grow in their faith. Have a great week!
