Hi, ladies! I'm working on getting all organized for BLHFHG, and I'm writing the spelling words and bible verses out on index cards now, so I will have them ready when I need them.
I am wondering which translation is recommended for the memory work? I see that Carrie says to use the KJV or the NIV for Bible Study in the guide, but I don't see a recommendation for the memory work.
Last year, when we did LHFHG, I would write the scriptures in KJV, but found that when we listened to the 'Hide 'em in your heart' cd, the scriptures were a different translation. I have both KJV and NIV, so we can go either way. I just don't want it to be confusing for my son.

Thanks for your help, as always!

On the Hide 'Em In Your Heart vol 2 CD insert here is the list of versions used.

1. NASB
2. NIV
3. NIV
4. NIV
5. NIV
6. NKJV
7. NKJV
8. NKJV
9. NIV
10. NKJV
11. NIV
12. NKJV
13. NKJV
14. NIV
15. NKJV
16. NASB
17. NIV
18. NIV
19. NKJV
20. NIV
21. NIV

So it looks pretty mixed on this CD

I'd just use whatever Bible you like best. We used the NIV, and that matched with the songs a good portion of the time. When it didn't match, we just sang with the CD, and I let them say the verse either way. We hi-lighted the verses in their Bibles too, and that's been something we do each year, so it's been fun to watch the verses they know grow.

In Christ,
Julie

This is such a neat idea! I had decided that this would be a really cool thing to look back at over the years! I just had such a hard time trying to figure out which translation of the Bible that I wanted to get my dc since all they have had thus far were the Bible story books and not an actual Bible!!
