Six Years with the Bible Memory App
I’ll celebrate six years of daily engagement with the Bible Memory App this week. This App has been a great spiritual growth companion. Desiring to be more devoted to scripture memory, I downloaded several apps and the Bible Memory App stuck with me. I begin each day and end each day by reviewing 5-7 verses. I also add new verses and review memorized verses from my daily devotional reading each morning. Then, throughout the day, as I have occasion (waiting in line, etc.) I jump on and review a few verses.
In six years, this App has helped me master over 2,000 verses. I’ve also utilized the app to take on the challenge of memorizing large chunks of scripture including the Sermon on the Mount and the book of 1 John and several entire chapters. This habit has also helped me as a witness and a preacher as verses are more readily recalled and I’m always ready when asked to share without a lot of opportunity to prep.
Why invest time in Bible Memory?
- Jesus Did. He quoted scripture in response to temptation and his teachings are full of obvious Old Testament references.
- The Disciples Did. As a matter of fact, part of the duty of a called disciple was to memorize their teacher’s teachings. They did and thus we have the Gospels and the New Testament letters.
- The Bible Tells Us To. We are commanded to meditate and to hide the word in our hearts.
- The Word of God is Power. It never returns void. It has the power to save souls. It’s sharper than any sword. And it will endure for all eternity.
- It’s better than any alternative. What else would you do with that 15-35 minutes per day? Doom scroll on social media? TV? Consider the comparative impact on your soul with any other use of time.
So, if you’re a disciple of Christ, and have not yet developed a rhythm of Bible Memory, try out the Bible Memory App. Here are a few articles I’ve written over the last six years about how and why to get started:

Thank you for sharing your inspiring journey with Bible memorization and for encouraging others to develop this life-changing habit. Your testimony about the impact of daily scripture memory and the practical ways you’ve integrated it into your routine is truly motivating.
I also wanted to recommend another resource that has been helpful for many: the Remember Me app https://www.remem.me. It’s a completely free, open-source Bible memorization tool that uses interactive games, spaced repetition flashcards, audio features, and visual aids to make memorizing scripture engaging and effective. It supports over 200 Bible translations, works offline, and syncs across devices. For anyone looking for a flexible and accessible way to hide God’s Word in their heart, it’s definitely worth checking out.
Thank you again for your encouragement and for helping others grow in their faith through scripture memory!
