Have you ever learned of the power of song to commit large pieces of text to memory? Just think of all the popular song lyrics you can recite word-for-word without even thinking about it! The same is certainly possible for the Bible, and that's why I've taken the time to put the words of each chapter of Ephesians to a different Christmas carol tune.

Chapter 2, to the tune of "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" - arranged and performed by "yours truly"!

[To the Haters]: I do not claim to be a world-class vocalist (or sound engineer), so no need to enlighten us all with your critiques of my singing. This song was created for purely mnemonic purposes and is not intended to pass for a world-class musical masterpiece. The more discerning among you will detect a hint of humor in my delivery (it's not your imagination!). Let's keep it lighthearted, shall we?

I hope you will find this series a helpful resource in committing a whole book of the Bible to memory—it most certainly can be done, and it might be easier than you think!
