Talk about the kindness of the Lord….

The book that we’re currently studying, Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life, was just made available for FREE in MP3 audiobook format at Christianaudio.com! They have a free audiobook each month and this is March’s…so don’t wait too long to download it.

Sign up for their newsletter and get notified of the “free audiobook of the month”.

NOTE:  There are many good resources on this site but please still use discernment (as always, right?).  I wouldn’t fully support everything here but a lot of it is good stuff.

Thanks to Anil Levi for pushing me to post this today…I got the newsletter  last night but might not have got to this for a day or two.

Scripture Memorization Links

Posted by: Site Admin | Comments (0)

Tim Challies is offering a unique way to memorize Scripture.  The method he’s using is the same that Pastor Juan and Todd Terry mentioned recently.

Of course, don’t forget about 1 Corinthians13.

Wouldn’t it be great if all of us men memorized this chapter?  I’ve been trying for a while to resume a regular system of Scripture memorization, so I’m excited about this.

Memorize Scripture with audio!
(Hat tip: Todd Terry)

Software
e-Sword, the free Bible software (Windows and Windows mobile), has a very nice memory tool built-in.
