Happy studying!
At our last Fellowship Meal, we took a few minutes to honor the kids who worked so hard in Bible Bowl 2009. Everyone took home a special “Bible Bowl News” paper, and heard recaps of scores and awards. What you might not have heard, was that our kids entered the Sweet 16 in 3rd place. Not that there’s any competition involved, but that’s better than Walnut Street, White Bluff, or any other congregation in the county! :) We’re proud of their hard work!
If you’d like a taste of what they learned, check out Zipped PDF’s of Bible Bowl Questions, and the Newsletter. Way to go teams!!
Here are some flashcards for studying the people in John. Good luck!
Enjoy a review game for John 1-11.
After you’re done playing, use your browser’s back button and leave your high score and your name as a comment on this post. Remember, questions are taken from the official sycamore Bible Bowl text, which is the NKJV.
