Hello from Washington State!

Hello from Washington State! I am fairly new to memverse. I have been doing this for less then a year. Things were going great for awhile but I have been having trouble recalling the Psalms. My trouble is attaching the verse references to the text. I can memorize the text fine but the chapter and verse is challenging. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hmm that one is hard for me (especially with psalms) but with my experience in BB is that by doing the reference at the beginning and the end every time you read the passage out loud to memorize it helps a lot

Yes, lil'biblegal, that (I've found), is one of the best ways to remember!

Yes!

Pretty new to memverse, but what works for me is to always practice memorizing reference and verse(s) together. Memorizing works best for me through paper flashcards: front - reference, back -verse. The memverse memorizing tool sort of works for me, I learn the verse pretty fast, but I find it doesn't seem to stick very well, for some reason! So mostly I stick with my paper flashcards to learn the references and verses.

Then I get onto memverse to review what I've memorized and keep count. I go to my "review" tab, and go through 50 references to help me review, then finish all of the new verses that I need to review.

So far, this has helped me, but I don't have too many verses yet either! Anyhow, hope this is helpful.

this post is suited to the Bible Memorization Tips thread (memorizing reference tips subtopic), so copying and reposting there; a new tip will be added there too.

u r welcome, lil'biblegal

Hi Ralph from Washington. Perhaps if you have a list of verses or passages you are having trouble remembering the references for, you could type out the references plus the first 5 words for each reference and focus on memorizing that and often reviewing that until the references stick.

I am currently in Washington, an hour north of Seattle. We are enjoying our visit.
