yes, my daughters were going to get a prize at church for memorizing them in order- it just so happened I had a tape with a song that sang the books of the Bible in order. We had not listened to it before then but they were encouraged to learn them. Because of this song, I learned them in order without even trying and my girls had them down pat at ages 3 and 6. They have not listened to the tape in a long time and they are 10 and 13 now- they can still sing them in order- It has helped us all find scriptures by book chapter and verse a lot faster and easier than before .

I have a working knowledge of the books in the Old Testament. I can't say them all in order, but I can probably write them all down from memory, especially if i knew how many there were (66). :)
As for the New Testament, when I was in Catholic school, someone taught us a song to memorize it, and it was catchy and now whenever I can't remember when Ephesians is, I just hum the tune in my mind. (I do the same with the alphabet when I can't remember how if v goes before u) :)

Yes! I know them in order and can only recite them at an extremely fast pace. The reason for this is when I was growing up, my mom gave me a christian hip hop tape to listen to, and this was one of the songs. I never really knew how many books there were though. Is it really 66?

No, but holy spirit helps me to locate scriptures when I need them so I am not too concerned with memorization.

Almost, but it's not necessary. The index helps.

No, because it doesn't make you a better christian.
