Select Verse Collections to memorize with this Group.
No, I've just been really busy outside. Btw, anyone helping out with VBS?
am I the only active one?
This group gets pretty quiet in the summer.
yes! I put a new picture up 😆
High School!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! VICTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn’t do anything though
someone removed my admin again
this group has fallen 😢😭😩😫😖😣😟😔
I’m back and I come back to some teen messing with GIOVANNI
Still no poem from Giovanni. Gave up?
for the record I did not put myself on the group photo.
my home ☹️ my family 😢 my everything 😤 It’s all gone! FOREVER! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Giovanni, you are all talk and no action.
And just so you know, you're about to get poetically slammed in the next few days.
Connor, you never told us what you claim your name means.
It must have been prophecy by your parents that you would need an extra dose of grace.
And linguini fits me better Connor.
For your information, Giovanni means "God is gracious". Try to get an insult out of that one.
Then I shall take your silence as permission to call you King Carp from now on.
Maybe “Top Dog in a Specific Body of Water”?
How about we call you “Sensei Floats”?
Or a small marker buoy with a lightweight flagpole.
In the dictionary a Dan is any of ten degrees of advanced proficiency in judo or karate.
Papa John, DJ… What does “Daniel” mean?
We already gave you several.
How does Ravioli Lumetta sound?
And if we’re looking for nicknames Giovanni, like your name, there are a ton of pasta dishes that end with the letter i. Hmmmm…
And how am I losing it? I simply responded to an unclear challenge.
Maybe on whatever dubious website you found that on, but when I was born it had a differ meaning.
This is pretty off topic, but I just found out that Connor means "lover of hounds"😂😂🤣🤣
Sounds like Connor's losing it a bit. How much of your brain was spent making that poem?😂
You are absolutely right. Please explain how I am using it incorrectly.
Yeah, otherwise you're being what's called heretical.
It’s great that your using the Bible, but it’s only great if you’re using it right. 🤔
Plus, I should get bonus points for using the Bible against you like three times.
And the only way I suppose you have prospered was in public approval of your poem. But it was enough to work with.
Sometimes bad things bring prosperity, and anyone would envy that. Only we should not be focused on temporal ease, but on lasting work.
I’ve never seen the beginning of a debate about poems before. this is kinda entertaining 😂😂😂
And according to the poem, I you're "livid" and "envious" of me. That's quite flattering actually.
Yeah, but how does that poem apply to me? "prosperity"? "always at ease"? "increase in riches"? Not sure YOU know who I am.
And Giovanni, I just didn’t want to refer to you directly. But you know who you are.
“Snotty” went well with the overall theme of the poem.
So why was everything plural?
that was impressive but I don’t know about the snotty part. 🤔
And no Giovanni, I’m not in 7th.
When rivals cause trouble, attempting to make me livid; I was envious of the boastful, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. They were longing for attention, and crafting poems very tall, pride goeth before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall. They are altogether snotty, doing as they please, Behold, these are the ungodly, Who are always at ease; They all increase in riches. They find themselves so good. But they would think much different if they only understood.
Next your gonna tell me truth is relative. 😂😂😂😬🥱
Thank you! - I was confused by that. Also, forgive me Connor. you're 7th😂
Context does matter, wdym?
But fair. You’re right. I do need to get back into this.
1st of all, context doesn’t matter. You knew what I meant. 2nd, I’m not in sixth. 3rd, even if I was, It would all be part of the plan.
Look who is in 2nd now Giovanni 😝😝😆
Oh look who's SIXTH now!!😂😂
A better verse would've been Proverbs 21:5, "everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty."
And furthermore, why are you using James 1:8 when it's talking about doubting God? Context, Connor. Context.
That's rich coming from a guy who dropped from the 300's to 80😆
If you’re so competitive, why are in 4th and taking breaks? “He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.”
You have admin. I changed the description
Btw, can someone give me admin?
I thought it was pretty obvious by now I'm competitive😂
Oh now you’re motivated 🙄😆
Oh, you shouldn't have said that😂
I’m just happy I’m ahead of you 😝😝😝😎😂
Yeah, but when I get up to second, everyone's gonna try to pass me. The pressure's rather low when you're 6th😎
Giovanni, you could get in second if you review all your verses
Connor better have a better excuse than the sun.🙄 he’s done with school also.
And today I jumped To 34 🙌
I’m actually working on reviewing. I was at 11 😆
So what's your excuse for being at 34 then?😂
Yeah, I'll be back to where I was before soon, I'm just trying to make sure I finish strong in school.
Man we are falling apart! we need to get back to memorizing! Connor was over 250 and now he’s in the 80’s! 🤦🏼♂️😉
Ah, I was just taking like 5 minutes for each of mine.
Just so you all know, I've been working on that one for weeks.
I think of storms I've weathered, and I smile |
For he who sought to break my brain and gain |
The pleasure of defeating me with guile |
Now knows the truth: his efforts were in vain |
The thunder of his words died down in time |
As did the insults hurled against my form |
The pure words cleared all the grime |
And pain to perfection was able to transform |
I withered for a while, that much is true |
But the pain was never enough to make me cry |
Truth made me strong and helped me to renew |
My steadfast wings wings on poetry to fly |
He who condemned is gone, and I remain |
The storms of life have helped my worth to gain |
Your life is marked by sorrow, | And now we’re in this deep. | I’ll have to do more tomorrow, | But right now before I sleep | I want you to know you’re wrong | About winning this whole thing. | I was better all along, | And to me the praises ring.
Speaking of which, Titus I haven't seen you in the top 3 since I joined. Nice job!👏
I would have done more, but my brain is nearly spent thanks to Titus😂
There once was a boy named Connie| Who thought he was poetically fit| And foolishly challenged Giovanni| Who proved his utter lack of wit|
I think John needs to just fully leave the group and then someone should send him an invite to rejoin.
Giovanni, the fact that I took the time to flip the word scrawny around and use it for your benefit should give me some credit. I could’ve just used it for what it is: I see a boy so short and weak I’d have to call him scrawny. But I guess you’re right, I could’ve used “brawny”. I just was kind of in a rush. And to be fair, let’s see YOU rhyme “Giovanni” with a few other things.
On a side note, can I have admin back?
So he can't comment...or show he's actually done his verses. It maka no sense🤨
it’s a little sus but I believe him. Lol
John told me he can’t comment at the moment, so he wanted to say that he’s been doing his verses but they’re not showing.
And we can all see you Connor. You literally have your face as a profile pic 😂
First off, and I'm saying this in the gentlest way possible, Connor your poetry sucks. The fact that you could only find "scrawny" to rhyme with Giovanni is slightly offending and a testament to how extraordinarily uncreative that poem was.
And Daniel, you can’t see me so you can’t sense my deception.
I sometimes lie awake at night with thoughts of Giovanni. | I see a man so tall and strong no one could call him scrawny. | And if he left my memory group we all would fail real bad, | So I just hope he never goes, or we will all be sad.
And what happenned???? I leave for three weeks and everyone's fallen! Did I really impact the group that much?🤔
Connor, how is your email still down?
I just can sense deception when I see it.
Either that or you ate something native to Nepal that’s a quirk of science and is driving you insane. One of those.
Why would I lie about my email being down? I’m talking to you now, why would I avoid you there? I think your brain must be taxed from graduation.
Because my email is down??? What do you mean?
Why don’t you email me Connor???
Everybody else, 😝😝😝😵😵😵🤕🤕🤕🤮🤮🤮
And Giovanni, thanks for the info.
John, my email is down so I can’t respond through that. I guess 🙄 I’ll have to talk to you in person. 😉😂
Why did someone delete John telling about prayer requests? Lol?
I’ll try to keep you guys somewhat updated with how things are going
yeah basically just what John said.
but because it's not an open country, he's probably gonna delete the app for his time there
when I talked to Dan, he said that he could use prayer on safe travels and opportunities to serve the Lord
Side Question: Daniel, how can we be praying for you specifically and spiritually while you are over there?
I may not have to come over myself. The corporation has contacts.
(And then he actually shows up)*Man Sipping Out Of Mug**Man Then Mumbled To Himself*
I dare you to come discipline me there.
Hahahaha yeah right, I’ll be in Nepal. 😂😂😂
Ya better be careful Daniel, or you may find yourself under church discipline. 😉
John still can’t think of a comeback, lol
John your pathetic and you walk with a limp 🩼🩼
after Dan goes I'm definitely going to be at first place - right Connor? 😂
Yeah I was there today, Dan 😂
Yeah but you’re not traveling yet.
hahaha my verses will go down a bit cause of my travel lol.
Dan, Nice! exactly 300 verses
is everyone gonna be there tomorrow?
There is a lot of “LOL”’s going on here 🤨
Connor needs to step his game up!!!
but you know who is for the bible memory
Lol I’m clearly the best. 😂😂😂
slow and steady wins the race
everybody's slacking tho - I'm the only guy going up
not sure who it is tho. 😂😂
everyone is going down except John and Daniel
nice pic, do you like my pic
Guys! I’m leaving this Monday for Nepal 😅 but I’ll try to keep up with reviewing. 🤞
there is actually a picture of you 😂
think of all the other groups
your review is gonna drop! but bye 👋🏼
Just so everyone knows, I am taking a break from the group until school is over, so goodbye all!👋👋
well you did so pass Connor
Giovanni you drop 100 and not say your sorry
I will catch up but for now I’m going to be down
I don’t want to stop memorizing
yah DANIEL DAN DAN DAN DAN you did it
How can you even identify a picture like that Giovanni?
And Noah, you ain't fooling anyone.
DANIEL 5 verses and you pass me come on you can do it.
baaaaaaby bbbbbbaaaabbbbyy
Josh is singing-baaaabbbbyy bbbaaaaaaaabbbyyyy bbbaaaaaaaabbbbyyyy
I’m pretty sure it’s the persons name you need to be paying attention to write now Giovanni
Ahh, yes. Daniel would be the one to give out my information.😉
Sorry, I realized that could've worded that better😂. I just wanted to make sure Daniel had given me the right one and wasn't pranking me.
And that was a little creepy, by the way… 😂
Yeah, but my email is down, so I couldn’t respond.
Connor, did you get an email from me, btw?
come on 8 verses is a lot
Do It! Do It! Do It! Do It! Do It!
Come on everyone! Encourage Daniel!!
But....you're still behind Connor😕
and who keeps giving me admin
can somebody take it away
78 verses to be exact - no idea how I didn't notice those🤦♂️
nice meeting you on Sunday Giovanni
I might do another big push in the coming week or so now that I've got the review frequency under control.
Giovanni finished review 👏
Has he tried leaving and then coming back on again?
man, this app is messed up in so many ways!
Ben is up to FOUR now!!🥳🎉🥳🎉
Daniel should really review so he can pass Connor
I have 4 verses out of the recommend for the top 5
don’t delete it I used it
I've reviewed them enough now so that no verses are on daily.
what about the James and the other James
I know I went down. I've got about 20 to review, just haven't gotten around to it yet.
and if you don’t want to review them ALL then put some on review every 3 days or2
Think we should delete it? It's just making the page slower.
and My verse count is not going up I was just memorizing
No idea. There aren't any verses in it even.
Who added “Recommend for the Top 5”?
Also this is the first time my number isn’t updating. it’s supposed to be at 124
dan is the one that contacted him
I repeat, why isn't John back?
That is gonna be helpful 😂
I just realized the perfect nickname for Connor! When he's normal, it will be "Dr. Jekyll" and when he's possessed, I'll switch it to "Mr. Hyde" to warn everyone😂
Oh, 😂 you guys are talking about behaving yourself 🙄
actually, never mind. we could use Daniel to take the lead 😂
Jake is the head of middle school. he can memorize some verses. no toning down or we will have a new leader!
So having Jake here makes you tone it down, but not YOUR DAD??
I bet when Jake switches his picture it will be a picture of Remember The Titans 😁
It just hit me… now that Jake’s here, I’m gonna have to tone it down by like, 3 notches.
So...did anyone find out why John isn't back?
could someone take my admin away?
It didn’t work. I already tried the Force Full Re-Sync
Go to Settings/Sync With Bible,Emory.com
I could use you to make me admin again and remove it again because it’s still treating me like and admin
but I don’t think it would make a difference unless we deleted a bunch of collections but that could take away a lot of peoples verses though
I’m using the app but i have the page to
Hey Joshua, is the website faster without admin? Because it is SUPER slow for me.
I want to see how it feels to not have admin because it sounds like it functions better so I’m gonna remove my admin and please don’t give it back unless I ask for it 👍🏻
You Need To Review Again Giovanni
How did you mess that up and not put a space between the U and the A 🙄
in case somebody passes me, so I can shoot past them
we call it a secret weapon
for me it’s not a secret weapon, it’s just some backup verses
I think EVERYONE has a "secret weapon" now😂
iI have back up verses for that 😂
If he passes me I’ll just pass him back
Noah, you're 2 verses away from passing Joshua! You can do it!
Now there coming back in 6 hours
YES!!!!!!!!!!!! Finished Reviewing 😅
So as long as Connor and Daniel don't memorize any more verses - I should be able to get into the top two in about 2 months😂
Ben can’t read the messages

Charley brown with my head
Halleluiah!! I reviewed them all!!
And we have to much stuff in our group that it is taking a while to load it. so if there is a collection that is not being used then we don’t need it in our group and can be deleted to help the site. but before deleting something ask people first
Also, Noah said that he doesn’t want admin because it’s easier for him so let’s not give him admin
also, Good job Dan on taking the lead! 👏👏👏
16 down, 34 to go. 😄not quite as much as Giovanni thought
I tried the first letter option, but whenever I tried to speed up, I started typing the whole word🤦♂️
Oh and Joshua, I have 112 verses due right now, so not really sure you can complain that much😂
DANIEL HAS TAKEN THE LEAD!!!!🥳🎉🥳🎉🥳🎉
😮 I come back and have to review 40 verses! 😂
please I believe you will
can you take my admin away
why my name is Richard-because my name is NOAH RICHARD JONES 🧞♂️
I’m sitting down and eating HARIBO GOLDBARS
Just so you know guys, I have a ton of verses to review today and little time to review, so my number will fall a bit today.
my verse count is not going up
and I wooooooooooooooooooddddd get sus just asking so I did it
my verse count should go up
Never mine. he doesn’t want admin and that’s why he did this
you clearly just threatened the group
Ummmmm… There Goss Your Admin.
I’m a little teapot in a nose and I can’t do that
