1 Chronicles 6 opens with these words: “The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.” The line to keep is 1 Chronicles 6:3: “The children of Amram: Aaron, Moses, and Miriam. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.” Carry the word “children” from that verse into the rest of the day.
1 Chronicles 6 is a real chapter from the Old Testament. It starts, “The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.” That is not a motto invented for a poster. It is the first sentence a family hears when this page is opened at night.

The chapter also says, “the son of Ethni, the son of Zerah, the son of Adaiah,” 1 Chronicles 6 opens with these words: “The sons of Levi: Gershon, Kohath, and Merari.” The line to keep is 1 Chronicles 6:3: “The children of Amram: Aaron, Moses, and Miriam. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.” Carry the word “children” from that verse into the rest of the day.
The line worth learning out loud is 1 Chronicles 6:3: “The children of Amram: Aaron, Moses, and Miriam. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.” If the rest of the chapter feels crowded, hold that one sentence until the room is quiet.
What happens first in 1 Chronicles 6? Then try this: Read “The children of Amram: Aaron, Moses, and Miriam. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.” once more. What does it show you about God? You do not have to finish every verse. You can close the book after the memory verse and still have read the Bible together.
“The children of Amram: Aaron, Moses, and Miriam. The sons of Aaron: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.”
