We dive into our earliest biblical memories, revealing surprisingly different formative experiences with scripture that shaped our faith journeys.

• David's first Bible story memory is Zacchaeus, remembered through the children's song "Zacchaeus was a wee little man"
• Songs stick with children, which is why they're such an effective teaching tool
• One panelist's earliest memory was the crucifixion, which felt noble but incomprehensible as a child
• Charlton Heston's "The Ten Commandments" and family Passover Seders formed another's first biblical impressions
• Even Mel Brooks' comedic interpretation of Moses dropping the commandments served as an early biblical introduction
• The varied experiences highlight different ways children encounter and interpret scripture
