Ep 27 - Memorizing Scripture for Kids; Is Bible Verse memorization helpful for Kids? Using Play to Take God's Word from their Heads and Place it in their Hearts

Playfully Faithful Parenting: Encouraging Christian Mamas to Disciple & Discipline with Play & Joy

Episode Summary:

Let’s talk about memorizing Scripture! Is it enough? No!! Your kids can memorize the ABC Song, but it doesn’t mean that they can do anything useful with the letters. God calls for Scripture to be in our hearts, not our heads. Play is the way to help littles move God’s Word from rote memorization to hiding it in our hearts.

So, let’s give up memorization and dig into learning and experiencing God’s Word, so that it may take root in our hearts.

Verses from the episode:

Deuteronomy 6:4-9

Psalm 119:11

Colossians 3:16

Psalm 37:31

John 15:7

2 Timothy 3:15
