Verse 8 "jumps out" at me here (in this chapter which you've begun learning). It reminds me, that I sometimes speak with one "tongue" to some people, and with another to others.

Beautiful thoughts, TheMoviegoer. And I too believe in fine-tuning the system; I feel today that I've come up with a system that certainly works for me; not necessarily for others, but for me, in bringing a healthy majority of verses being learned to a fully learnt status.

I also liked onfire247's ideas concerning the changes which he is considering making.

I agree with Symota's prayer, and pray for you, uvance, that by your words and your actions, Jesus Christ the Lord will be clearly seen in you and through you; and I pray that the veil might be taken away from your mother's eyes, and that she would hear and understand the gospel of Christ, repent and believe.

I say "amen" to the prayers also, and pray the same regarding my mother-in-law.

Yes I am presently using a wide screen ... not a techhie so not sure exactly how wide, but it's a wide screen laptop. Also it's helpful to have a laptop with a good keyboard ... mine's a Dell ... I like their keyboards ... now I'm ranging far afield from the original thoughts. Anyway, it feels good to discuss all this with smb :)

thanks mrsmoo and thank you for sharing :) ... and once again, good job, onfire.

Good job onfire247! Keep moving forward!

LOL @ mrsmoo. Not a bad idea. "Today's Random Badge is awared to __________". Because each one is special in God's eyes :)

Thank you Moviegoer. It does indeed help. I split the screen between my webbrowser on the left, and notepad++ on the far left. As I review each verse, I record in notepad++ the %score. At the end of the review I end up with a column of numbers which I copy and paste into my Google Sheet, which then calculates the average.

The way that this system helps me personally is that I worry less about the weaker passages, because I know that later on I'll know specifically which ones they are, and will in sequence give them extra work. It also helps me to worry less about one or two weaker verses -- if the majority of the verses have a good score, then it's all well and good. My goal is to move forward the majority toward fully learnt.

I've also continued to add verses which are weaker, and "separated from the pack", as individual verses. That way, the passage as a whole comes up for review less often, and the weaker verse also gets more work.

Thanks :) I guess it's a little easier for me than for some others, because 1) I only work about 30 hrs a week (semi-retired), and 2) I work almost entirely from home. That gives me a lot of time to be on this site :)

I have a Google Sheet which has a list of all my passages, and then each time I review a passage, I rate it by finding the average of all of the scores received during that review session (meaning, 100, 95, 98, 91, or whatever). It takes a little extra time, but it also helps me to focus, as for each verse I'm then more motivated to score as highly as possible.

Then I go back later, when I have some free time, and put in extra review for the weakest passages.

At this very moment, I'm about to do an early review of Isaiah 6 ... I try to calcuate a rating for all my passages, asto which ones are the weakest, and then I review the weaker ones early by going to the passage list and clicking "Learn"

just saying hello :) and good to see you.

yes

yes, it's true, it's very good to see you back -- I remember you from a couple of years ago I guess ...

yes

Good choice

yes

that actually is excellent advice, to go slow and actually think about what we are memorizing. Thank you for sharing that.

sounds like a good plan to me!

nice work

You're on your way! Is it good to be back? (back here at this site, I mean)

gooood job!

amen, mrsmoo, me too

Thank you, onfire247 and biblememorizerCamilaParker.

eighteen months! Now, that's a looong time! praise the Lord.

thank ewe all :)

Yes, that's true. Honestly, I intentionally "reviewed early" some of my passages which had a lot of 98-99% verses....that's one reason it came faster.

That last 100 was very quick 👍🎉Well done.

Thank you, onfire247 and biblememorizerCamilaParker.
