LTC - Bible Bowl


Abby, Tate, Roy & Abigail
Caleb, Rich, Blake & Ryan





Panoramic view of the testing hall from a couple of years ago.
Bible Bowl, one hundred questions, multiple choice over the book of Matthew.  Each year the subject matter switches from Old Testament to New Testament.  As the kids get older, Bible Bowl gets easier.  When they are younger they have more time but they have a lot to study, sometimes just defining the words before they can master the material.  Now they are familiar with the vocabulary and have other Bible knowledge to add the new material too, the studying is much easier. 
 
Abigail competed with Abby, Tate and Roy, definitely a winning combination!  I know she was thrilled to be on a team with girls this year!  Caleb was of course with his amigos, Richard and Blake and Ryan.  The boys are competitive but it brings out the best in them. 
 
This year Caleb chose to help teach the younger kids in Bible Bowl on Sunday nights, so before the competition he ran around to the younger kids giving the last minutes high-fives and encouragement!

let us consider how we may spur one another on
toward love and good deeds, 
not giving up meeting together,
as some are in the habit of doing,
but encouraging one another
Hebrews 10:24-25
