Although written in 1919, Dr. Evans’ scripture memorization techniques are still used today. Most books and websites that attempt to sell memorization techniques are largely using Dr. Evan’s ideas.His techniques for memorizing the Bible are simple, clear, practical and have immediate benefit. They work regardless of your age.“Without memory the soul of man would be a poor, destitute, naked being, with an everlasting blank spread over it, except the fleeting ideas of the present moment.”—Watts. It may be safely said that memory is the basis of all knowledge, that without it neither science nor art is a possible thing. This being true, the more a man remembers the greater is the amount of his knowledge and the greater the foundation for further study and research.Cicero “Memory is the depository of all knowledge.” Memory is the treasurer of the mind.
The good Reverence provided useful information on verifiable techniques to memorize large quantities of information. His general and specific advice were each valuable. I would recommend just skimming the first few chapters. If you don’t know yet why you are trying to memorize, you’re not really ready for this book,
