About this ebook

This inspirational companion to Memory Rescue, Dr. Daniel Amen’s groundbreaking book, is an invitation to discover the healing power of Scripture meditation and memorization as an intentional spiritual discipline.

There is a reason the Bible calls us over and over again to “remember.” Remembering God’s acts, promises, and guidelines for living is essential to a healthy spiritual life. And as part of regular spiritual practices such as Scripture meditation and memorization, it can contribute to a healthier mind and body as well—reducing stress, increasing brain capacity, and even helping to reverse problems like memory loss.

Stones of Remembrance includes:
  • Key Scriptures to memorize and meditate on so they’ll always be with you when you need to be inspired, challenged, or comforted
  • An introduction to the biblical and biological basis for “remembrance” as a healthy life habit
  • Tips for incorporating Scripture meditation and memorization into your life and increasing your memory capacity
Whether purchased as a gift or as a practical spiritual follow-up to Memory Rescue, Stones of Remembrance is a wonderful resource to help cultivate the healing power of God-focused remembering.

    Stones of Remembrance - Daniel G. Amen, MD

    Introduction

    Remember the days of long ago;

    think about the generations past.

    DEUTERONOMY 32:7

    Memory enables us to bring the joys, dreams, and lessons of yesterday into today. As we recall God’s faithfulness, we remain centered and growing, and we move forward with a sense of purpose. Memory allows us to keep our loved ones close, even when they are far away. It assures us that our personal history and experiences matter—that we have something valuable to teach the generations to come.

    This is the way God designed our minds to work—to remember. It’s been that way from the very beginning.

    In the Old Testament, after the Israelites crossed the Jordan River and entered into the Promised Land, God gave this command to Joshua: Take twelve stones . . . and lay them down in the place where you lodge tonight (Joshua 4:3,

    ESV

    ). Joshua delegated this task to one leader from each of Israel’s twelve tribes and then explained the rocks’ significance:

    When your children ask in time to come, What do those stones mean to you? then you shall tell them that the waters of the Jordan were cut off before the ark of the covenant of the

    LORD. . . . So these stones shall be to the people of Israel a memorial
