Bill Mowry, long-time Navigator and author of Holding the Word, joins Josh Summers to unpack how simple metaphors can revolutionize your scripture engagement. In this episode, Bill introduces the Navigators' Topical Memory System and his powerful “Hand Illustration” — five life-changing ways to interact with God’s Word: hear it, read it, study it, memorize it, and meditate on it.

Josh and Bill explore how accountability and mentorship can fuel a consistent Bible memory habit, and why memorizing just one verse a month could be the best way to begin.

With decades of discipleship experience, Bill offers both encouragement and strategy to help you draw closer to God through the Bible.
