Tips for Memorization using Keywis

Take your Keywi cards wherever you go to make best use of your spare moments!
Back to: Memorization

WHERE: Keywi™ cards are meant to help keep your memory verses always on hand. Most people find keeping them on their keys the best way to always have their verses with them. For others, keeping them strapped to a purse, backpack, belt loop, or water bottle, might be the best strategy.

WHEN: Once you’ve decided where to attach your keywiTM cards, look for spare moments throughout your day to read through, recite, review, and repeat the flashcards. Some common opportunities to do this include waiting in a check-out line, pumping gas, waiting for a meeting to begin, in the midst of a traffic jam, at lunchtime, during a break, or while taking a walk.

WHAT: Choose a pack of flashcards that best suits your current need or get a pack of blank cards to customize the verses you want to memorize. It is important to strive for 100% accuracy when you memorize. Not only will it be easier to recall in the future, but it will help you understand the specific meaning of the verse. Most importantly, these are God’s true words for applying to your life so it is important to be faithful in accurate memorization!


HOW: The best memorization strategies will vary from person to person, but some helpful tactics include:


-memorize a verse phrase-by-phrase, break-up the task to make it easier

-read the verse over and over again, then try to repeat it by memory

-read the verse aloud, then repeat by memory

-imagine pictures in your mind of the content in your verse or imagine the words on the card

- draw pictures on the front side of the card to help you remember the content of the verse and envision what you are memorizing

-repeat and review verses you already memorized to build on your scripture knowledge

-ask a friend to memorize with you to keep you accountable

-have a friend check-up on your memorization by quizzing you with your flashcards

The Keywi Symbol

Beauty in nature reveals the artistry, creativity, and goodness of our Creator. Kiwi fruit is not just delicious to eat, but forms a beautiful starburst pattern when sliced in half. This is just one example of how we know and experience God’s goodness!  Psalm 34:8 encourages us to “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” (NIV) Just as God’s gift brings nourishment and delight to our senses, every set of Keywi™ cards made for this project is designed to be both beautiful and provide nourishment to the soul. As with any fruit, a kiwi begins as a tiny black seed. Planted in good soil with proper watering and light, the kiwi can grow into a vine and bear fruit.  Just as Jesus taught in the parable of the sower, my prayer is that the seeds of God’s word would fall on the good soil of your heart, producing in you a fruitful and abundantly fulfilling life. Bearing fruit requires that we remain in Christ.  ...

God - The Intimate Perspective

To some, God may seem like a lofty and abstract concept, but He is far nearer to us than we can fathom. “ For in Him we live and move and have our being .” (Acts 17:28a, NIV)  The Psalmist contemplates: “ You have searched me, Lord, and you know me. You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you,  Lord, know it completely. You hem me in behind and before, and you lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me, too lofty for me to attain... “ For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,  I know that full well My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all th...
