Bible Quizzing Starts In A Few Months
November 2, 2011 Leave a Comment
In January, my church will begin Bible Quizzing with the churches in our region. And to say, that I am excited is an understatement. This Sunday is our Kick-off at church and I know that God will do a wonderful work among us.
But I want to take this opportunity and tell you why I love quizzing:
1.) I love seeing the young people memorize God’s Word.
This is no small work. Last year, they had to learn 1 and 2 Thessalonians, 1 and 2 Timothy, Titus and some of 1 Peter. That’s a lot in just a short amount time. This year, they are learning verses on doctrine. I am excited to see them fall in love with our doctrine and know how to defend it.
2.) I love seeing the young people grow up spiritually.
With a constant, large amount of Scripture pouring into your soul, its natural, or should I say supernatural, that you would grow. I was hearing them ask questions about the text and desiring to learn more than just the words, but their meaning.
3.) I love seeing the young people make deep friendships with those from other churches.
I have to admit that I love going to see the other churches’ facilities and members. Last year, I was the new guy in the region. So to visit the other churches was a great delight. I have made new friendships and I know that our people have too. I’m expecting a repeat this year around too.
Bible quizzing starts soon and this year, I am memorizing the verse with them. Therefore, I must go and study!
