Developing a Program of Scripture Memorization for Youth at Eubank Baptist Church in Eubank, Kentucky

The purpose of this project is to train the youth of Eubank Baptist Church, in Eubank, Kentucky, to memorize Scripture by completing a 12-week curriculum. It teaches the value of the practice of memorization, methods to successfully memorize Scripture, and gives students opportunity to practice intentional memorization of Philippians 1. Chapter 1 describes the project’s context, rationale, purpose, goals, research methodology, and limitations. Chapter 2 demonstrates that the Bible teaches Bible memorization as a vital spiritual discipline. Chapter 3 uses extrabiblical material to argue that memorization is an applicable form of education to help young people learn, process, and utilize information in real-world situations. Chapter 4 details the project’s preparation, promotion, implementation, and data analysis. Chapter 5 evaluates the strengths, weaknesses, purpose, and goals of the project and explores ways to improve it.
