  • Metaphor to Memory: 5 Ways to Hold God’s Word (Bill Mowry)
    May 2 2025
    Bill Mowry, long-time Navigator and author of Holding the Word, joins Josh Summers to unpack how simple metaphors can revolutionize your scripture engagement. In this episode, Bill introduces the Navigators' Topical Memory System and his powerful “Hand Illustration” — five life-changing ways to interact with God’s Word: hear it, read it, study it, memorize it, and meditate on it.

    Josh and Bill explore how accountability and mentorship can fuel a consistent Bible memory habit, and why memorizing just one verse a month could be the best way to begin.

    With decades of discipleship experience, Bill offers both encouragement and strategy to help you draw closer to God through the Bible.

  • 100-Day System for Memorizing Bible Verses so you DON'T Forget
    Apr 11 2025
    What if memorizing Scripture didn’t require complex apps or a photographic memory? In this episode, Pastor John Green shares his practical, deeply personal method of Bible memorization—one that centers on index cards, structured review, and verses drawn straight from quiet time with God. Host Josh Summers explores how this 100-day review cycle has helped John internalize hundreds of Bible verses, adapt to a busy life, and cultivate spiritual depth.

    Pastor Green discusses the emotional and meditative benefits of Scripture memory, explains how to avoid cherry-picking verses out of context, and opens up about how God’s Word has shaped his life. Whether you're just starting or looking to deepen your routine, this episode is packed with wisdom to help you make Bible memory sustainable, meaningful, and life-changing.
