I wish I had more scripture memorized. I am pretty good at big picture stuff, and narrowing down the main points that an author makes in a particular section of scripture, but haven't been as good as memorizing scripture.
I would love that the things that get stuck in my head be verses of scripture (because my mind had been focused on those things) instead of song lyrics or movie quotes. If I spent more time trying intentionally to memorize scripture, I'm sure that my mind would wander to that area of remembrance more. I just never know where to start. Do I make a list of helpful verses to have commit ed to memory, a list of popular verses, or do I try to memorize a large chunk of scripture.
What do you all think? What method should I try and why?

I think you start with passages and points you are most "involved" with and memorize those verses first, then keep expanding your base. I don't think you need to be able to quote whole chapters but, start with verses that mean something to you that you would want to share with others.
