Rejoice Always: 1 Thessalonians 5:16-22 (Scripture Memory for Kids)

“When our first daughter was two, we noticed that she could remember and repeat much of what we read her. We wanted to put her abilities to use to help her start memorizing God’s Word, but found that simple books of unaltered Bible verses with beautiful illustrations were not available, so we made the Kids Can Memorize Scripture series. Our girls love to read them and within a couple days, our three-year old was repeating the verses back to us. We hope you and your children can enjoy them too!” -Gage and Kat Owens Young children have a remarkable capacity for memorization. Help them effortlessly start storing up God’s Word in their hearts while sharing a short, easy to read book with beautiful, classic-style illustrations. This book presents 1 Thessalonians 5:16-22, the classic Bible passage about ‘rejoice always’, with relevant illustrations that make reading fun and assist memorization with visual associations. The book ends with a short description of the context and importance of the verse, and a poem about memorizing Scripture. The verse is in the English Standard Version (ESV) translation: “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise prophecies, but test everything; hold fast what is good. Abstain from every form of evil.”
