Good Advice from Mentors on Scripture Memory
From James, a battalion captain, using Adventure Trails: Classic (2018 ed.)
As for myself, I find myself in an interesting arena now especially with all this social distancing. With all this newfound time to myself I have been able to get out and about some local trails and just side streets to take some long walks, spending time while walking meditating on Scripture or in prayer. It’s been a great way to clear my head and have time with just me and God. The verses I am working on are some of those needed for the Explorer achievement, as I am trying to encourage one of our guys to memorize by doing it with him. So that has been excellent.

Good for you walking outside! That is a great way to clear the mind as well as the air you breathe, right? Good to know you are using that time for praying and going over the scripture verses… The thing that stuck out to me most from your paragraph was that you want to know the verses on which you are connecting with your student for mentoring. That is so good, and I’d want all of our leaders to know that mindset!
