Scripture Memorization
Scripture memorization is an important discipline to introduce to our lives as a way to actively hide God's word in our heart. It allows us to not only internalize the text, but to share that truth with others more readily.
Journal Prompts
* A quick note on journaling: if you're new to this practice, our journey through the book of Psalms will be a great way to get started. The most important step to forming this discipline in your life is to write anything and write often. Journaling is an incredible way to slow down, digest the content of a text, let your brain internalize thoughts that may come up, and keep a record for future reflection on what God was speaking to you during your reading. Journaling can take many forms such as written prayers, bullet points, stream of consciousness, or even poetry. Try some different methods and find the one that works best for you.
Journal Prompts / Discussion Questions from Today's Teaching
Psalm 71
How have I taken offense at the troubles of my life? What am I doing to renew my mind
considering the gospel?
What are some practical ways in which I can fill my mind with the greatness of God?
What does sharing the hope of Christ look like for me and how is that connected to my
hope?
Am I taking refuge in the sovereignty of God? How does knowing God is in control
become a refuge for my life?
