I've been trying to memorize Scripture daily. To do this, I'm making use of two free and insanely useful programs, InVerse (http://www.bibleinverse.org/) and Scripture Memory System (http://www.memoryverses.org). I highly recommend both programs to everyone desiring to memorize Scripture. And, I also would encourage every Christian to memorize Scripture, so that they might be able to say with the Psalmist,

How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word. With my whole heart I seek you; let me not wander from your commandments! I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. Blessed are you, O Lord; teach me your statutes! With my lips I declare all the rules of your mouth. In the way of your testimonies I delight as much as in all riches. I will meditate on your precepts and fix my eyes on your ways. I will delight in your statutes; I will not forget your word. (Ps 119:9-16 ESV)

On another note, I am currently reading J. I. Packer's Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God and John Murray's Redemption Accomplished and Applied.
