IF MY WORDS ABIDE IN YOU (John Piper):

This video message is long, but just watch the first 15 minutes. I commend, actually, the first 15 minutes to you. Listen to the passion of John Piper's scripturally-centered, memorized prayer. You will be encouraged to memorize scripture if you don't already. If you do, you'll be encouraged to memorize even more. I was!

  1. I absolutely love this... I'll be listening again, and memorizing more!
    He did say one thing I disagreed with, that the Bible is the only way He talks to us. I don't think that's true.

  2. At the end of 2009, I heard Dr. Charles Swindoll relay a vignette where captive prisoners had so much of the bible memorized that they were able to piece together a large chunk of the bible without notes.

    The challenge was to memorize more. So I've taken it upon myself to memorize a large chunk of scripture (either a chapter or a large section) per month from parts of the bible I wouldn't normally memorize...LOTS of OT stuff.
