Bible Challenge

Do you remember when the teacher or leader in Sunday School or youth camp would say a Bible reference, and the children were to find the passage quickly and read it aloud? Of course, those who knew the books of the Bible were the first to find the scripture that was called, read it, and they earned a point.

On this last Sunday of July, we’re having a Bible challenge. I’ll call out a Bible verse, and whoever finds the verse and reads it out loud will get a point, and we’ll reward the champions of this contest.

How fast can you find these verses?

Challenge at home: Time yourself to see how well you know your Bible. The faster you are, the more knowledgeable you are.
