James 1:2-3 ESV

Our family is using the "Fighter Verses" Memory Verse System from Bethlehem Baptist Church in order to hide God's Word in our hearts (Psalm 119:11). We've found that the best and quickest way to memorize verses of Scripture is to set them to a tune.

This week's verse was James 1:2-3. We sing it to the tune of "Jesus, Thy Blood and Righteousness" (you can hear this tune at http://www.cyberhymnal.org/htm/j/t/jtbloodr.htm). Try it yourself:

Count it all joy my brothers when you
Meet trials of various kinds
For you know that the testing of
Your faith produces steadfastness.
