First, the article affirms God’s call to believers to memorize Scripture (Psalm 119:11). Next, the article describes memory and its connection to “coming to know.” The article’s main section connects memory and memory palaces to covenant epistemology’s eight steps: love, pledge, invitation, indwelling, encounter, transformation, dance, and shalom. Lastly, the article will offer short, adaptable lesson plan examples to help Christian educators teach memory palaces and covenant epistemology.
