What is Bible Drill?
Bible Drill (Red Cycle) uses video, original artwork, and a printable Study Guide to teach Scripture memorization and Bible skills in a fun, unforgettable way. Available in ESV, KJV, or CSB. (Winner chooses which translation they prefer.)
Bible Drill (Red Cycle) includes 25 memory verses, 10 key passages, all the Bible books, Bible-navigation skills, practice Bible Drills (Sword Drills), & more! (See Lesson Goals below.)
Bible Drill Videos
Available soon on the
Parent Road Ministries YouTube channel.
Videos are FREE on the
Parent Road Ministries YouTube channel. See the video posting schedule below.
Bible Drill (Red Cycle) videos, Image Packs, and Study Guides standalone or make great supplemental Bible material. The memory verses and key passages selected follow LifeWay’s Bible Skills, Drills, & Thrills curriculum, Red Cycle. (Each of the three years of this curriculum is a different color.) All images and content are original and not sponsored by LifeWay.
Bible Drill Study Guide
Available Aug. 17, 2020.
Bible Drill (Red Cycle) Study Guide, available in ESV, KJV, or CSB, follows along with the video series. Students have opportunities to review each verse and key passage using a variety of learning styles. Images and memory techniques mirror those used in the video series. Included are games and activities not discussed in the video series.
Bible Drill Image Packs
Available Aug. 17, 2020.
Bible Drill (Red Cycle) Image Pack, available in ESV, KJV, or CSB, provides a variety of full-size teaching pictures. Each one is designed for visual learners with the goal of memorizing a verse or key passage reference. For each of the 25 memory verses, you'll receive a copy of the original artwork without additional text, the image with the reference, the image with the first few words of the verse, and the image with the entire verse and reference. That 4 images for each verse, 100 in total! Each of the 10 key passages come with a copy of the original artwork, the image with the key passage title (i.e. “The Birth of Jesus”), and the image with the key passage and reference (i.e. “The Birth of Jesus Luke 2:1-7”). That’s 3 images per key passage, 30 in total! That’s a grand total of 130 images per Image Pack… all using your preferred translation (ESV, KJV, or CSB).
Lesson Goals
**Memory verses are done in two ways. First, students are given the reference and are expected to quote the entire verse. Second, students are given the first few words of the verse. They are expected to quote it entirely, with the reference.
Memory Verses (Red Cycle): Gen. 1:1; Lev. 22:31; Deut. 6:5; 1 Chron. 16:8; Job 37:14; Ps. 19:14; 145:9; Prov. 8:33; 20:11; Mic. 6:8; Matt. 5:44; 21:22; Mk. 13:31; Lk. 6:31; Jn. 8:32; 15:13; Acts 1:8; Rom. 14:12; 1 Cor. 10:31; 14:40; Eph. 6:1; Phil. 4:13; Jas. 1:9; 1 Jn. 4:19.
** For Key Passages, students are given the title. They are expected to find it in the Bible in 10 seconds and give the reference. Additional lessons explore the contents of each key passage.
Key Passages (Red Cycle): The Creation (Gen. 1 – 2:3), The Israelites Leave Egypt (Ex. 12:37-42), A Prayer for Forgiveness (Ps. 51), The Baptism of Jesus (Matt. 3:13-17), The Model Prayer/Lord’s Prayer (Matt. 3:13-17), The Great Commandments (Mk. 12:28-34), The Birth of Jesus (Lk. 2:1-7), The Parable of the Prodigal Son (Lk. 15:11-32), The Comfort Chapter (Jn. 14), The Christian Armor (Eph. 6:10-20).
