Is Memorizing Bible Verses Good for Your Brain?

By Keesa Renee DuPre

In the South especially, Vacation Bible School is a part of almost every child´s summer, whether their parents regularly attend church or not. Children make crafts, perform skits, sing songs, and, most importantly, memorize Bible verses. VBS is part of growing up in the South.

But new research suggests that VBS—particularly those Bible verses—may be more important than you think. It turns out that the brain is just like the biceps; the more you use it, the stronger it becomes. And when children, especially, put in the effort to memorize something—like a Bible verse—their brain is strengthened and their memories improve.

Plus, it doesn´t only work for children. Adults, too, can strengthen their brains and improve their memories by putting forth ten or fifteen minutes of effort each day to memorize something; either a Bible verse or a short poem, for example. Take the time to review the verse or poem as you go through your normal day; repeat it to yourself in the car, for example, or while waiting at the doctor´s office.
