Texas Bible Bowl Practice

My Bible Bowlers are making great stride in their studies of the book of Acts.  We are a little over half way through Luke's second book.

After my lesson the kids took a practice test and then we moved on to games.  It's a great group but teaching 3rd though 11th graders can be challenging.  With the practice tests it provides more challenge to the older kids and the games are a good lesson reinforcement for the younger students. 

Several years ago Jon and I used to teach the Texas Bible Bowl class and the LTC Bible Bowl class.  Both classes cover the same book of the Bible, however LTC uses the NIV and Texas Bible Bowl uses the ESV.  The stories and teachings are of course very similar but for testing purposes can vary.  For example, the ESV uses the phrase Solomon's Portico while the NIV reads Solomon's Colonnade.  

It's subtle differences but it makes it difficult to use either set of material for both classes.  The latest NIV version has even more variations than the former 1984 version. It would be great if LTC would move over to the ESV, it would make class preparation much easier! 

The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people. 

And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon’s Colonnade. Acts 5:12
