Bible in Mind

Bible mind maps you can learn by heart

Put a concept in the middle — waiting, grace, worry — and hang the passages that belong to it around it. Now learn them, in nine rungs. Here's what that means: the first rung asks you to pick the right text out of four, and the ninth asks you to write it out from the reference alone. It runs in your browser; you can start without an account.

Waiting on the Lord Isaiah 40:31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and… Psalms 27:14 Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. Lamentations 3:25-26 The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him. It is good that a man should both hope and quietly wait for the salvation of the Lord. Waiting here is not sitting still. All three passages put it next to strength, courage and hope — it is something you do. Worry Philippians 4:6-7 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. And the peace of God, which… Matthew 6:34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof. Both answers redirect rather than argue: one to prayer, the other to the size of a single day.

Then learn it by heart

Every passage climbs nine rungs, from recognising it among others to writing it out from the reference alone. A passage that keeps slipping stops being tested and gets built up instead — seven techniques, one at a time.

  1. 1. Which passage
  2. 2. Which concept
  3. 3. Which one was it
  4. 4. In order
  5. 5. Next word
  6. 6. Tap the gaps
  7. 7. Type the gaps
  8. 8. First letters
  9. 9. From memory
