Use This Simple, Catchy Song to Memorize the Books of the Bible Fast
Five years ago, we memorized the books of the Bible using a simple, but catchy, song I found on YouTube. My kids and I still rehearse this song in our heads every time we need to find a book of the Bible.
Do you know, I’ve been a Christian since childhood and I didn’t memorize the order of the books of the Bible until I taught this song to my kids? When my pastor read scriptures in books that I was less familiar with (like Obadiah and Haggai), I flipped through the pages, hoping to stumble onto the right spot.
Now, I just run through this song in my mind and I can quickly find any book in the Bible.
There are a lot of songs on YouTube with brightly-colored animations or kids excitedly jumping around on the screen. But in order to commit a song to memory, you have to play it over and over. And, honestly, most of the other books of the Bible songs we found gave me a headache were hard for me to listen to more than once.
This song is just a guy with a guitar playing a simple, catchy tune. But the more I listened to it, the more I liked it. Sometimes, simple is best. Here it is:
