I hope you enjoyed this second interview with Dr. Andy Davis! Be sure to grab a copy of his new book (geni.us/scripture-for-life ) and then take part in our 5-part training: www.biblememorygoal.com/training
I memorized Hebrews about 7 years ago. It changed my life. I also m'ed several Psalms, Matt 5-7, certain other sections. I've been working on Romans. At 72, it's HARD, but worth every drop of mental sweat. I've found that I memorize better by listening than by reading. Thanks, Alexander Scourby!
Josh, another inspiring time with Dr. Davis. Those committed to a lifestyle of Bible memory need this encouragement-that includes me! It sounds as though Andy has softened and broadened his clarion call to memorize. This is wise, since there are many out there who need to know first of all, that Bible memorization is still a thing, is still possible at any age, and that God truly honours any and all efforts to hide His Word in their hearts. I still recall the dear pastor who discipled me in 1999 encouraging me: “Darren, not many Christians do this discipline of Bible memory, but if you do it, your life will be greatly blessed.” Being as I was a baby believer struggling with a still secular and sinful mind, I was overjoyed to begin memorizing and meditating on God’s Word, as I am today! Blessings Andy Davis, Josh, and so many others on this eternally rewarding path of Bible memory. Darren from Canada. @reverenddarrenmcclelland
I have been stirred to memories scriptures with my 10 yo son! We are going to start today! May God sustains and empower me and my son! And pray my husband will join !
Josh, Thanks for your work, as always. Great and encouraging. I really loved hearing Dr. Davis talk about how God spoke to him and worked in him through Ezekiel. Very rich! Thank you Dr. Davis! Also, like him, it is much better for me if I start my scripture meditation and memory early. However, I also believe it would be great if I would end the day with it most days as a part of thanksgiving for the day and starting to prepare for the next day. (Going on my daily calendar again as a goal. Help me Lord!). I do have two longer other comments that I would like to make, but I will get them to you on the website and if you think I should post here you can let me know. Thank you again very, very much for your work and encouragement to us in your excellent interviews and leading bible memory goal!
@@BibleMemoryGoal Yeah, most of the time on UA-cam an ad will play at the end of a video, but not on this occasion. I thought maybe you didn’t have that enabled? Whatever the case may be, it was nice to not have to shut down an ad in the middle of dishes.
Thanks for the great interview. Just wanted to share that I’m a support worker, so I find time on Friday mornings or appropriate occasions when out with my client to go over new verses while ‘at work’
Thanks Josh! Interesting that I found Andy's book many years ago when memorizing Psalm 139. I found you guys from your interview with him two years ago. I so appreciate his comments that the new book downplays the original book's comments about memorizing only entire books/chapters. Your interview was excellent and a real blessing to me. Thanks again.
thank you so much for this testimony ! I have his first book and believe in the benefits of learning bible verses, I've done it when I was young, ... but I get overwhelmed with all that is happening around me. The most beneficial thing that happened these past 10 years regarding memorizing Bible verses, is that I found a christian community that sings basically verses of the Bible. That's when I learned quite a few verses without even realizing it. When one comes up in church, I realize I know that one ! But I do want to go farther and hopefully encourage others to do so too. I live in France, and all this is quite far away from most of the people. Thank you for this strong encouragement !
I think it's cool that he did Ezekiel. I have a Facebook community where I have a team of disciples reading the bible together every day and we're all reading Ezekiel now. I just linked this video in there.
That's an awesome testimony. Thank you for sharing that and how memorizing scripture really makes you look at that scripture. I've had many eyes opened to what the scriptures are trying to tell me every day I'm just astounded, amazed, awe struck and 16 million other words I would say if I could think of them. It takes God to open your eyes but it takes you to really study the scriptures. I will check out your book
So, I really resonate with having the Word of God more alive and God speaks to me through it and the treasures I get from just meditatively reading it and through that I have memorized many verses without even trying. I memorized the book of Philippians' a few years ago and I did it by rote. And I have a hard time with recalling some of the verses by their addresses. I know them and can recite them when I'm teaching or sharing. But to say the book I have to start in the beginning and go through it verse by verses in order. So, I am looking forward to learning more about using your technique with creating Palaces so I can have better recall. I was a little disappointed that he said we will not be able to remember and to just let it go. I get that it is written on your heart and Holy Spirit will bring it back to you I have experienced that myself. Are you able to recall the books you have memorized?
I love this two men. They wrestle with the word. Josh am likely to be featured on America's got talent on bible memorization and recitations. I will hurriedly need you to join help me on the show if my last online audition video is chosen .
Eu já estou no nível de um convite seu para uma entrevista.kkkkk. brincadeira, Josh. Ainda longe do nível dos seus entrevistados. Mas, me deleito nós ensinamentos da memorização das santas letras. Muito obrigado.
Excepcional, sensacional, surreal e muito mais. Eu sonhos... memorização das escrituras é poderoso fazer isso e humildade é tudo. Parabéns, Josh por trazer esses " monstros da memorização". Para é tudo de bom cada semana neste canal incrível de novidades. Muito obrigado. Continue...continue...traz mais... Glória a Deus. Eu tenho 10 salmos de memória.
@@BibleMemoryGoal Josh bom dia. Eu gostaria muito de adquirir todos os livros divulgados por você . Eu sonhos... Eu fico mim babando...mas, o seu país é muito distante (E.U.A) não tenho condições financeiras para isso . Que pena. Mas , vou assistindo os vídeos no canal em me deleito. É muito bom. Bom dia . Gratidão sempre!
I memorized James and the scripture will eat you alive. Changed my life. He is God and I am not. I am so impressed with your diligence and I know it changed you. Will be reading your book. I am going to retire and this sounds like a worthy endeavor with my time.
I don't understand! At 6:20 Andy says he learned something he never knew...God wanted to destroy Israel. He says it's not recorded in the book of Exodus, but what about Exodus 32:7-14??? Did God want to destroy Israel twice?

The hard things are generally those that are worth the effort.
You can tell this man is a pastor and wrestles with the word. Thank you for this project.
Agreed 👍🏻

Josh I truly love hearing all the interviews you do but Dr. Davis and your discussion today was such an encouragement to me.
I’m so happy to hear that, Kenneth. Thank you 🙏

I love it!
Another great interview! So appreciated his comment that scripture memory is about intimacy with God. That should be our motivation.
So true 👍🏻
Awesome thanks brother
My pleasure

Listened to this while doing dishes; the ad-less silence at the end was beautiful!
Ad-less silence?

So great! I could resonate so much with the heart behind why we do what we do at the end!
👍🏻👍🏻
Very cool, moving me to get into memorizing the Bible.
I hope so!
Thanks!
Thank you for the support!!
Great video and interview as always!
Thank you 🙏
I think it's cool that he did Ezekiel. I have a Facebook community where I have a team of disciples reading the bible together every day and we're all reading Ezekiel now. I just linked this video in there.
That’s really neat, Stacy. I hope the community enjoys and gets a lot out of Ezekiel!
I do too. It's like pulling teeth to get anyone to care about bible memory, but if one of 200+ persons watched, at least you got one.@@BibleMemoryGoal
Thanks for posting, Josh
You bet, Gabe 🙏
Excellent interview! Thanks to both of you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing !

Great Interview. I’m sure his book is great, but I’m still searching for Josh Summers’ book on scripture memory.
Ha! Maybe someday, but it’s hard when these other books are just so good.
So, I really resonate with having the Word of God more alive and God speaks to me through it and the treasures I get from just meditatively reading it and through that I have memorized many verses without even trying.

I am, but I still have to periodically review them to make sure I don’t lose it.

Yes it is 👍🏻
What Bible translation or version do you use?
I’m not sure which version he uses.
I don't understand! At 6:20 Andy says he learned something he never knew...God wanted to destroy Israel. He says it's not recorded in the book of Exodus, but what about Exodus 32:7-14??? Did God want to destroy Israel twice?
I'm not sure, Jody. I would need to ask Andy for more details.
