Bible Memory: A Last-Minute, Affordable Gift for Kids and Adults They Won’t Forget

What’s one of the best ways to build a strong faith foundation, become closer to God and deepen one’s devotion to Christ?

Committing His words to memory, be it a favorite verse, psalm, chapter or – for the super ambitious – the entire Bible. Spoiler alert: That’s more than 1,200 chapters and 30,000 verses!

The Bible Memory App for adults and Bible Memory Kids – today’s leading Bible memory systems in app form – make it so much easier to memorize Scripture and are the perfect, meaningful Christmas gift for people of all ages. No more paper index or flash cards of yesteryear.

“The Bible is the foundation of how we hear from God. Memorization allows us to more clearly hear His voice throughout the day and use His words in prayer,” says Brett Golson. A computer programmer, Golson and his wife McKenzie founded Birmingham, Alabama-based Millennial Apps six years ago to launch The Bible Memory App (originally called Scripture Typer). Golson had been studying the effects of and techniques for memorizing the Bible since college.

An additional benefit to using the apps is that memorization exercises the brain and increases mental energy. It can also help reduce cognitive decline from aging by stimulating and keeping the brain alert. “I’m amazed by the comments we get from seniors who not only feel closer to God memorizing Bible verses but see it as a daily aerobic workout for their brains,” adds Golson.

The Bible Memory App is accessible via all mobile devices – iPhone, iPad, Android and Kindle Fire – as well as online. It allows users to easily memorize, organize and review by actively engaging three cognitive areas of memory – kinesthetic (touch), visual and auditory.

Since the app’s launch over eight million verses have been memorized – a ticker on the website biblememory.com continually tracks memorized verses. The five-star rated app has had more than 680,000 downloads to date, and the website has over half a million page views per month. It’s the #1 Bible memory app on Apple App Store.

New! Bible Memory Kids

The company founders – parents to three young children – recently added Bible Memory Kids to their product linefor Apple devices. The youth version engages three areas of sensory memory – visual/spatial, auditory and touch – to help children more easily and enjoyably learn the Bible regardless of reading level. Each passage includes beautiful artwork andexciting music. Kids can even record themselves and listen to their verse recordings.

“Bible Memory Kids is an amazing and really fun way to give your child a strong foundation for a life in Christ. It's so simple and engaging, even toddlers can do it. Kids love hearing themselves recite Scripture, too!” says McKenzie Golson.

You can also memorize passages with your family or church in group settings with The Bible Memory Kids App's FREE companion app on Apple TV.

Gift for Under $10

If you’re in need of a great last-minute gift for yourself, your family or friends, now is a more affordable time to purchase the apps.

From December 21, 2018 through Christmas Day, the following savings are available:

Bible Memory Kids is $1.99 (33% off the original price). The Bible Memory PRO upgrade for The Bible Memory App is $7.99 (20% off the original price). This special price is available exclusively on BibleMemory.com by using this special link. You can also save up to an additional 40% when buying 10 or more app licenses, making for a thoughtful purchase to give to extended family, a small group, church or ministry.

What Makes Bible Memory A Top New Year’s Resolution?

The Reasons Might Surprise You.

Plus, The Most Memorized Bible Passages of 2018!

Idle time makes for idle minds, the saying goes, which is perhaps why more and more Christians are committing God’s words to memory – whether a favorite verse, psalm, chapter or even the entire Bible for the super ambitious.

“One reason we often hear for why people make memorizing the Bible a top New Year’s resolution is that they hate how they are using their smartphones. Instead of mindlessly scrolling through news and social media, they’re finding it far more enriching on every level to connect to His Word by memorizing chapter and verse during commute time, between meetings or even when standing in line,” says Brett Golson, a computer programmer.  Six years ago, Brett and his wife McKenzie launched The Bible Memory App (originally called Scripture Typer) through their company Millennial Apps in Birmingham, Alabama.

Since then, more than eight million verses have been memorized using the five-star rated app which is accessible via all mobile devices (iPhone, iPad, Android and Kindle Fire) as well as online.

With more than 680,000 downloads to date and over half a million page views per month on its website, The Bible Memory App has become the #1 Bible memorization tool on Apple’s App Store.

Even better, the app is free while other in-app upgrades are available for purchase. And Bible Memory Kids (for Apple devices only) was recently added to the product line.

According to the Golson’s, another bonus benefit of using the app is an increase in mental energy that comes from exercising the brain through memorization, which can also help reduce cognitive decline from aging by stimulating and keeping the brain alert.

“I’m amazed by the comments we get from older people who not only feel closer to God when memorizing Bible verses but also consider daily use of the app an aerobic workout for their brains,” adds Brett, who has studied the effects of and techniques for memorizing the Bible since college.

The Bible Memory App allows users to easily memorize, organize and review bible verses, chapters, and psalms by actively engaging three cognitive areas of memory – kinesthetic (touch), visual and auditory.

Additionally,churches and ministries find the app helpful for kicking off the New Year with study groups at which participants focus on – and in many cases commit to memory – a particular area of the Bible.

With more than 1,200 chapters, 30,000 verses and 150 psalms in the Bible, which parts are the most memorized? According to the Golson’s, the top choices for 2018 were:

Chapters

Romans 8 - Freedom from sin, life in the Spirit, and eternal security

Matthew 5, 6, and 7 - The Sermon on the Mount, Jesus’ most famous sermon on living a life dedicated to pleasing God

James 1 - The trials, temptations and testing of your faith

Verses

John 3:16  “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

Genesis 1:1  “In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.”

Romans 3:23 “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

Psalms

Psalm 23:1 “The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.”

Psalm 1:1 “Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the wicked, nor stands in the way of sinners, nor sits in the seat of scoffers.”

Psalm 37:4 “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.”
