Scripture Memory Songs

I can think of no better way to memorize Scripture than to find or make music for it. Not only does this make memorizing easier and more enjoyable, it adds a lot to the retention and review time as well. I am thankful for those who are using their talent to honor God and help spread His Word. Praise God!!

WordSong: Tim Harris and Ted Warren have taken Scripture Songs up to a new level with WordSong. The Scripture (NIV) is put to a powerful, rich, cinematic sound helping us appreciate and memorize even chapters of Scripture. www.wordsong.info

Sing the Word: Steve & Anne Harrow have made several cds of Scripture Songs, including a very catchy "A to Z" cd, which is a favorite of our very own HAKOTS director, Caela. www.singtheword.com

The Bible Study in Stereo is an innovative new idea I like a lot. They have entire chapters written as Scripture songs in the NIV connected to 8-week Bible studies on that same chapter of the Bible. This helps us both memorize and meditate on / internalize the Scripture at the same time. Check them out at www.tbsis.com.

Other Links

Here's a random one. If you are interested in woodworking information about table legs or other wood turnings like kitchen island legs, there is a web site that caters to woodworking professionals and hobbyists alike.

About the webmaster. In the Bible, Romans 13:7 exhorts us to give honor where honor is due. Matthew Osborne took over this bible memory web site in its infancy and has lifted it to new heights beyond my expectations. He also made a site dedicated to helping people ace the SAT. I have found Matthew to be professional, efficient, and a pleasure to work with. I recommend Matthew's website building business to you, and highly endorse both his computer expertise and Christian character.
