This week hosts Mike Nawrocki and Tricia Goyer talk with author Kyle Bjerga about his new book, Storing Up Treasure: 30 Memory Verses to Learn, Live, and Love.

Help your kids store up God’s word in their hearts for a lifetime! This family devotional connects memory verses to real-life situations kids 6+ face every day.

Your family will enjoy quality time together as you memorize Scripture creatively, worship God and have meaningful conversations. Along the way, your kids will store up treasure from God’s word that they’ll never forget.

Each of the 30 included memory verses is learned through 5 short, interactive devotions, which will help your family to:

Engage with the verse’s context and meaning
Connect the verse to real-life scenarios and experiences
Enjoy a wide selection of memorization activities, games and ideas

You’ll store up the treasure of God’s word in your hearts day by day.

Structured but flexible, this resource is easily adapted to fit your busy schedule and preferences. Work through the devotional in order, or select your verse for the week based on a real-life situation your child is facing.
