Memory Verses for Adults

Posted on by

You might recall that I did a couple of blogs over memory verses and memory verse crafts for children. Knowing the Scriptures is just as important for adults as it is for children.

However, we might not always have a Bible on hand (although they now make small versions that could easily fit into a purse) and it would be very helpful to know what the Bible says. In 1st Peter 3:15-16 the Bible states: “. . .always being prepared to make … Continue reading →

Memory Verse Suggestions for Children

In my previous blog I talked about a couple of different crafts to make to display memory verses for children.

While, my husband intends … Continue reading →

How In the World Will We Live?

This is the final chapter in the Values that Last series, though I will be doing a final blog which will be a conclusion of this blog series. First addressed was choosing our standard, following was why our beliefs matter, deciding right from wrong, living with integrity, and some scriptural support in overcoming injustice. Our pastor started out this session with a scripture from 1 John 2:16 that sets the pace for what I have to share here: “For all that is in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—is not … Continue reading →
