Memory Verses in 1 Peter

Posted on August 02, 2011 Phil Walker 232 comments

Rachel, a committed Memverse member, has started a group of people committing to memorizing 1 PETER.  Very cool.  I will let her update this page to include information on how the program works.  When the Bible Bee local competition is over, it would be neat to set up an accountability chart here for memorizing 1 PETER.  It would also be very cool to run a 1 PETER Live quiz or 2 either while we are memorizing or after we are done.  There are now 20+ people in the group.  If you would like to join us in memorizing 1 PETER with the group, please let us know.

The current group of 38 members =

Please be active in praying for members in the group as we take in this exciting book.

We don't want to accountability chart people to death.  However, we also want to give an outlet for people who are memorizing 1 PETER.  Group leader "Jesus Paid it All" has set Jan 31st, 2012 as a target date to finish, giving time to Bible Bee Finalists to finish after Nashville.  However, people are welcome to keep memorizing and declaring after that date.  There are 105 verses in this awesome book, so we will make each declaration = 5 verses.  We will welcome and post single, double and triple declarations as we understand that some have already been memorizing 1 PETER.  We ask you to refrain from declaring more than 15 verses at once, but rather return back for future declarations.  Declarations can be made from any parts of 1 PETER since we know some are not starting with 1:1.  We would love for you to join us!! Can we, Lord willing, get all 37 on, or better yet to eventually complete this chart?

Sample declarations = John D   IL   Set A = 1 PETER 4:1-5 = 5 verses; or  Frank J   NM   Set A, B, C = 1 PETER 2:3-17 = 15 verses or my first declaration of Phil W   IND   Set A,B = 1 PETER 1:13-20; 2:9-10 = 10 verses

1 PETER Accountability/Encouragement chart: Each declaration = 5 verses
