Bible Bee
Has anyone here heard of the Bible Bee? Is anyone planning on entering? I might.
Bible Bee is basically like a spelling bee, but you have to memorize Bible verses instead of words. Sounds fun.
Registration is until April 30, then on May 1 they put the study guide on their website, and the local competition is on September 12. The National competition will have the top 100 contestants from every age group (up to age 18) and will be held in Washington D.C. They have some pretty groovy prizes for this thing!
I think it costs $20 to enter, but that's a small price for such a neat program in my opinion.

Hooray! I'm starting to get really excited about this.InHisArms wrote:I'm totally entering!
I'm going to start memorizing Bible verses now, even though I don't know which ones I'll need to know, and hopefully by picking some more obvious ones I'll get a head start.
I heard about this a couple weeks ago and decided to enter, I can't do a whole lot with it till the NCFCA tournament season is over, right now working on speeches takes first place. But after regionals I'll work hard at it.Ty Borden wrote:Hooray! I'm starting to get really excited about this.InHisArms wrote:I'm totally entering!

I actually ran into the Bible Bee site months ago when I was surfing the net looking for information about scripture memorization. Neat idea! I love the concept and would like to participate in something like it, but for many reasons (location, timing, cost, no one to train with) am not planning to attend this one. However, I'll continue regularly memorizing verses by myself with an Excel spreadsheet to keep me motivated.

The only Bible quizzing I've ever done are the Awana Bible Quizzes. I have a few ribbons to show for it, as well as some videos of my stellar performances!
Never heard of any other Bible Bowls/Quizzes/Bees.

Oh, it sounds fun! And at least you get a list of things to study! InHisArms, may the Word of God dwell in you richly!InHisArms wrote:This Bible Bee is insanely tough and serious. We have to memorize 350 passages (50 of which are whole chapters), 200 Bible knowledge questions and answers, and study 6 books of the Bible that 200 more questions will be taken from.
Can you say FUN?!
