Welcome to 3x5 Scripture Memory & Scripture Mastery
FYI - This app was "NOT" written by or endorsed by "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints". However, it is plainly an app designed for members of said Church, with scriptures from all 4 standard works of the Church including Bible, Book of Mormon, Doctrine & Covenants and Pearl of Great Price. In an earlier General Conference of the Church, the late Elder Richard G. Scott (Of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles) said, "Great power can come from memorizing scriptures. To memorize a scripture is to forge a new friendship. It is like discovering a new individual who can help in time of need, give inspiration and comfort, and be a source of motivation for needed change." I therefore, dedicate this App to the memory of Elder Scott and offer it free of charge without any in app adds.
The idea for this app resulted from an experience when I was on my mission. In order to memorize scriptures I used 3x5 cards. I put the verse on one side and the text on the other side. In my spare time I would test my memory by just looking at the verse to recall the text and vis-versa. So here in this app I have duplicated that ability for iPhone, iTouch and iPad users.
Ive included the 100 "Scripture Mastery" verses along with what my mission to Scotland in the 1970s called the "120" and the "Basic 30". The "Basic 30" are actually part of the "120" but were singled out for teaching purposes. There are some common verses between the "120" and "Scripture Mastery" so the total number of verses included is 186. Ive taken some liberty with the "Scripture Mastery" order as displayed by the LDS Church in that I have separated the Pearl of Great Price verses from the Old Testament verses. If you are familiar with that format you will know what I mean.
