But I haven’t done that in recent years. And I really don’t have a good excuse for why I stopped.

I’m going to start again….

In 2011, I’m going to memorize the entire Sermon on the Mount, a verse or two at a time.

And I’d like you to join me in this.

Here’s how it will work. Every weekend, from now through Christmas, I will post a new passage from Matthew 5, 6, and 7. Some passages will be only a verse or two. A few will be three or four. You can write it down on an index card that you can keep in your pocket or purse. Or stick it in your Bible or backpack. Or on the console of your car. Or on the fridge. Or….

Get the point? Place it strategically, so that you will see it frequently throughout the week. Read it several times a day. Recite it aloud a lot. By the end of the week, it will be yours!

And then we’ll jump into the next passage.

What do you think? Are you up to the challenge? Will you join me?

Feel free to leave comments along the way, letting me know how you’re doing. I’d love to hear about your journey!

If memorizing the Sermon on the Mount isn’t where you’d like to begin, Ron Edmondson is doing a similar project on his blog this year as well. He is memorizing one verse a week, from all over the Bible. Check out his site for more details.
