Question about Verse memorization CD in LHFHG

[laurabelle1317]

In Little Hearts for His Glory, does the verse memorization CD go along with anything else in the guide? Or can any other verse memorization and verse music CD be used?

[Kathleen]

The verses to be memorized are in the Bible study box. The devotionals that you'll read go along with the verse themes, as well as the history for the day. Carrie ties the verse idea in with the history theme for the day with the key ideas in the box. Then, most days, the CD has you singing the verse, too (which helps memory). There is not always a song to go with the verse though, as a few times Carrie has chosen a memory verse that is not on the CD. But, that's the exception, not the norm.

As Kathleen said so well, the verse goes along with so much of the plans. The entire left side of the guides are connected with each other as much as possible, and work together to give a full picture of the history theme. This kind of tying together of the Bible and history has done so much for my dc to view history as being in God's hands, not in man's. The total separation of Bible and history I experienced when attending ps caused much confusion for me growing up, and I feel that much of my homeschooling experience as a teacher has been working to undo that. I think you'll love the inter-connectedness of the music with the Bible verse, with the devotion, and with the history theme each week! It is what helps it all "stick" in our dc's minds over time (and our minds as moms too - I often find myself singing those verses in times of need too). HTH!

In Christ,
