My Philippians challenge.

Remember when you went to Sunday School or Kids Club in church and every week you would learn a verse? Well recently, I've been convicted of my lack of bible knowledge. I seem to only remember the really well known verses which is good in themselves but 10 years into my christian walk, I should really have a wider and deeper knowledge of God's word. When Hebrews says "For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword", I always think of how I want to be able to wield this weapon for the cause of the gospel and for the glory of God.


In light of this I downloaded the Fighter Verses app for iPhone. It teaches you to memorize parts of the bible week by week and there are two options to do it. First way is the Fighter Verses Collection, this just gives you a verse or two a week to learn from any part of the bible. For example, this week is Revelation 21: 5-7. The other option is the Extended Memory Collection. This goes through big chunks of the bible by learning little bits every week. For example this year is the whole of Philippians and this week is Philippians 1:1-2. Both versions provide you with a fill in the blanks section and commentaries to help you. I've decided to attempt to do both, focussing on the Philippians section! But I need your help!!


Whether you're a Christian or not I want you to challenge me at random times to recite those verses which I am learning. Do it on the phone, over FaceBook or text (I promise not to teach) or face to face. If you want to join me then great, let me know and we can test each other! The app is downloadable for iPhone/iPad and Android. If you don't have any phones which support this, let me know and I'll e-mail you the reading plan.


Please pray for me in this. I really will need it. In advance...Thank You!
