Great tool for verse memorizing

I had been wanting to blog on how much I love the Fighter Verse Pack, and happily Alex just blogged on the Fighter Verse system. It's a tool developed by people at Bethlehem Baptist Church, which we attended while we lived in Minnesota from 2004-2007. I loved it that the whole church was working together on the same verse(s) each week!

While I worked on Fighter Verses while we went to the church and subsequently, I always felt frustrated on how to keep them. It wasn't until I ordered a Fighter Verse Pack for myself that I really started having a lot of fun with verse memory and find it so much easier to review the verses.

I feel like in this pack is plenty of verses to keep me busy memorizing for years. They are verses selected by people I really trust to help me grow in my faith and to fight sin. And there are handy tabs you can place to quickly find which verse you are working on, which verses you are currently reviewing, and where you will stop and test yourself on the last 50 verses.

We are still memorizing the same verses that the people at Bethlehem are working on, even though they're halfway across the country. But at least Alex and I can do them together. And I practice them out loud when my kids are with me, so that they can start being exposed to verse memory and we can eventually do it together, as soon as Karis starts talking.

While the Fighter Verse Pack I think was the best $18 (with shipping) I've ever spent, the verses are also available for free on pdf on the the Bethlehem website.
