    This is how Jesus memorized Scripture (w/ Dr. Ken Berding)

    In Bible times, memory was prioritized and practiced more than it is now, which is why Jesus and many authors were able to quote so much Scripture. But how were they able to do it? In this episode, Josh Summers talks with Ken Berding (NT prof at Talbot School of Theology and elder at Redemption Hill Church) about what we’ve lost in biblical literacy and how Scripture memory supports real meditation on God’s Word. Ken shares the heart behind his new book "The Bible by Heart" and walks through Bible-shaped practices like repetition, singing, rhythm, and displaying Scripture so it moves from short-term access into long-term, life-shaping memory.   ✅ The Bible by Heart by Ken Berding https://geni.us/bible-by-heart   ✅ Memorize What Matters (Digital bundle Deal!)  https://www.biblememorygoal.com/book5   ✅ Join us for Scripture Sync Dallas this June! https://www.scripturesyncdallas.com/2026 🔹SUPPORT the MINISTRY 🔹 If you're one of those awesome people who understands that this "free" podcast takes time and effort to produce, there are a few ways that you can support what we're doing here: Buy the Merch!
