A few administrative notes about the email discussion list: 1) I have changed the email address of the list. I preview each message sent to the list to make sure that no spam or other junk gets sent around. At this time I was receiving so much junk in the inbox that it took too long to filter it all out. The new email address for the list is biblememory@memoryverses.org. If you wish to post a message to the group, please send it to that address instead of the old one which was biblemem@memoryverses.org If you wish to unsubscribe then send a note saying "unsubscribe" to that same address. 2) The biblemem discussion list is now six years old. The list now has 382 members. If anyone wants to see the list archives then visit http://www.memoryverses.org/archives.shtml. 3) The list has been very quiet over the last few weeks. Somebody say something. How is everybody doing? Thanks, Stephen Simpson List Moderator. =============================================================================== Sent: January 20, 2004 12:16 PM Subject: 2 SAMUEL ANYONE ?? From: Philip Walker Hi. My name is Phil Walker. I belong to a small group of memorizers who are memorizing a verse from each chapter of the Old Testament. The last two months our group has been reviewing the verses we learned from GENESIS - 1 SAMUEL. This has been a very enjoyable activity, as well as profitable in giving us an overview of those OT books as well as helping us enjoy some wonderful less known truths of God. On January 1st, 2004 we will be starting 2 SAMUEl. I would like to invite you and/or friends of yours to join us. The members in the group rotate each nominating the verses they like from 5 chapters. From these verses, the official verses are emailed to each member committing to that book. The group often takes time to review at the end of months, and tries to start new books on the 1st of the month. This helps us keep tract of which verse we are supposed to memorize each day as well as giving people an opportunity to join and/or stop as they wish each month. The tentative 2004 schedule is as follows: Jan 1-24 = 2 SAMUEL Feb 1-22 = 1 KINGS March 1-25 = 2 KINGS April 1-29 = 1 CHONICLES May 1- June 5 = 2 CHRONICLES June 11-20 = EZRA July 1-13 = NEHEMIAH July 21-20 = ESTHER August 1 - September 11 = JOB October 1-30 = PSALMS 1-30 November 1-30 = Review of 2 SAMUEL, 2 KINGS, 2 CHRONICLES, NEHEMIAH, and JOB December 1-31 = Review of 1 KINGS, 1 CHRONICLES, EZRA, ESTHER, and PSALM 1-30 Currently our group has both teenagers and adults. The accountablity is flexible. Some just prefer to receive the list of verses and to be on their own to memorize; others quiz themselfs every 5 days. Those who email their quizzes to me receive them back graded. If you would like to join us or would like more information, please feel free to email me philjohn1558@yahoo.com Please also pray for the group as we seek to honor our LORD JESUS CHRIST and learn His Word! Thank you, Phil Walker =============================================================================== Sent: January 20, 2004 12:16 PM Subject: BIBLE LEARNING From: IAM VERY INTERESTED IN MEMORIZING THE BIBLE PASSAGES, PLEASE PRAY FOR ME, MANY TIMES WHEN I WANT TO CALL ON CERTAIN SCRIPTURES AS IT RELATES TO A PARTICULAR SITUATION, THERE NOT ACCESIBLE QUICKLY =============================================================================== Sent: January 20, 2004 12:16 PM Subject: memerazation of scripture From: alice&skylar shoemaker I want to grow to a higher level in GOD ,and to help my fellow ministers in my church to grow also.So anything you do to help me would be appreciated. =============================================================================== Sent: January 20, 2004 12:16 PM Subject: Time of testimony? From: Beth Montgomery > 3) The list has been very quiet over the last few weeks. Somebody say > something. How is everybody doing? > > Thanks, > Happy New Year everyone!! I wanted to take this opportunity to thank all for input and suggestions last year to help me memorize and retain chapters. I am currently working on memorizing my 4th chapter since you advice and encouragement. And, I am retaining what I learned!! God is faithful to impress His word on my heart when I put forth the work. Some of you that have memorized the better part of the NT are certainly role models! Thanks again for your help! Hope everyone is doing well. The list has been quiet. I'm looking forward to hearing what God has done in your lives and memory work last year. Maybe we could take a moment this new year and post a line or two sharing what God has done in our lives over the past year, and memory goals we are looking forward to this year? take care Beth ===============================================================================
