Josh Summers | Bible Memory Goal

a bold birthday idea



Hey [CORRECTED_NAME GOES HERE], the older we get, the less excited we seem to get about celebrating our birthday. My 8 year old boy is already counting down the days until his birthday in December. But me?

I'd probably prefer nothing more than a simple family meal.

I'd bet your the same way, right? It feels weird to invite friends to a party and ask them to "celebrate me!" Should they bring presents? Do you need a cake? It's all so awkward.

But what if there was another option?

I've heard of people doing creative birthdays before, but when I heard what Becky did last month, I knew she had to tell me more.

Becky is the Director of our amazing Bible Memory Community and if you're a part of that community, you probably know that she's been working on memorizing the book of Hebrews for the past year.

I challenge you to listen to my conversation with Becky this week and consider how YOU could think differently about your birthday. Is there a way that you could edify the body of Christ on your birthday?


๐Ÿ“ฃ a BOLD Bible Birthday idea!

Last month was "Beck-tober" (watch the video to understand!) and our community Director Becky Friberg decided to do something different for her birthday this year.
