memorize the word

It's a new month.  Are you ready to dive into Deuteronomy 11:18a with us!? Let's get God's words into our hearts and minds.

Here's what we're talking about today!
-Why scripture memorization is important
-How the words we've memorized come back to us and impact our lives
-Some of the surprises we've encountered along the way as Dwell has grown
-The verses that Vera & Natalie find themselves coming back to over and over again
-Our goal for Dwell members to memorize 1 million verses! Check out our verse counter (scroll almost to the bottom of the page to see it!)

A few weeks ago we received the sweetest letters from a few of our youngest Dwell members.  They shared with us how much they love using their Dwell kits to memorize scripture.  We were so excited about what they share with us that we knew we had to turn around and share it with you today!  

Enjoy our chat with the Busch family kids.  We know you'll be as encouraged as we were.

We have to know the word of God. Why? Because Jesus tells us that it's what we live on! Not just bread, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.

Natalie and Wren are breaking down our verse and getting practical in today's episode. How exactly do we live on the word? Wren graciously shares with us a few ways that the word has been life to her during everyday moments and during difficult trials.

We have loved dwelling on Matthew 4:4 with you and with Wren this month. If you have a story to share about how this verse, or another verse, has been life to you this month, leave us a review and then shoot us an email! We love hearing from you! dwell@dwelldifferently.com

In this inaugural podcast, David Dennis starts the interview with Dr. Richard Spann. Dr. Spann shares how he grew up in a Christian home, went to medical school and became the first pulmonologist in Wichita, Kansas. Although he was successful in his practice, he looked around and asked, “Lord, what else is there for me?” He was invited to a Memorize the Word course with the Navigators and ultimately met Jim Morris, who invested in him. He realized that the Lord commissioned him to be not only an evangelist but also a discipler.
