Bible Memory = Free Soft Drinks!

It is not exactly the reason that we give out for teens to memorize the Bible, but one store in Alabama has a unique way of rewarding memorizers: free soft drinks! I can think of worse motivators.

Dale Lanier has found a way to get people to read and memorize Bible verses.
If they walk into his convenience store in Snead, Ala., and recite the Bible passage he's selected, they can have a free soft drink or cup of coffee.
This month's memory verse is Psalm 118:8, which reads: "It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man."
Lanier said he's been doing this for the last six years, and gives away between two and 12 drinks a day.

Too bad none of the local corner stores follow this practice. I can think of at least a few quizzers would would be stocking up on free Mountain Dew!
