Want to memorize Scripture but don’t know where to start? Fighter Verses gives you a proven, structured path—one passage per week, for five years—that’s been helping churches, families, and individuals hide God’s Word in their hearts since 1997.^1
Built by Truth78, the app comes loaded with over 1,000 verses across two complete five-year collections, available in eleven Bible translations including ESV, KJV, NIV, NASB, and CSB, plus Spanish, French, and German options.^2 Six different quiz types—from quick blanks to a recite-aloud mode where you record yourself—help you lock verses into long-term memory. A built-in spaced review system surfaces memorized passages at graduated intervals so nothing slips through the cracks.^2 There are also songs set to the ESV text, a Foundation Verses collection with color illustrations for young children, and curriculum tie-ins for K–6 Sunday School.^2
The story behind Fighter Verses is remarkable. In 1976, a third-grade teacher named Linda McIntire compiled a list of “fighter verses” to arm her students with Scripture. Her sister Sally Michael and brother-in-law David expanded the list, and in 1997, their pastor John Piper challenged his entire congregation at Bethlehem Baptist Church to memorize together—launching a movement that’s still growing nearly three decades later.^1
Why Christians Love It“14 months ago I found Fighter Verses and I have not missed a single week of scripture memory since then. I am blown away by how much scripture I have memorized and how having the Word of God in my heart and mind has transformed my prayer life.”^2
“This app has been my daily companion for five years. I’ve found it to be an invaluable tool… I love how simply it takes care of the organizing so that I can focus on the memorizing and reviewing.”^2
