Bible Bowl 2008

Minnesota Bible Bowl 2008

The Woodbury congregation would like to invite all to compete in the 2008 Bible Bowl to be held, Lord willing, at the Woodbury building on Saturday April 12th.

Fellowship begins at 8:00 a.m. with donuts and Coffee.

Competition starts at 9:00 a.m.

The Gospel of Mark will be our text. Questions will be worded using the NIV.

We hope to once again award the winning team members in Youth, Junior, and Senior divisions with FPYC Campership Certificates valued at $100 each.

We have shortened the study time and chosen a manageable text in hopes of encouraging wider participation at all age levels. We hope to have some new and interesting question formats and even some fun audience participation elements.

We will again be making the John Kimbrough study guides available to interested teams. These study guides supply many questions to sharpen Bible knowledge - It makes coaching a team just that much easier and saves a lot of time.

For those traveling greater distances, we can arrange for Friday evening accommodations - please let us know your needs in this area.

Please send ideas that you feel would make Bible Bowl more exciting, valuable, and enduring as a tool in God's hands.

Please! We need to know of your interest to prepare and send teams. In recent years, there has been a gradual decline in the number of teams and spectators. We fear that without your congregation's involvement, Bible Bowl will not continue as a special annual event that challenges young and old to dig into God's word and demonstrate knowledge of the scriptures.

We need to hear from you by February 1st.

Will your congregation be represented by at least one team? More?

It is our intent to put together a quality event and we do want to see Bible Bowl continue well into the future. This could be a pivotal year for this event. We need your teams and your commitment to come to help the Minnesota Bible Bowl thrive.

More information will be coming soon with many details concerning team composition, rules of play, bracket format, scoring, and much more.

Please! Encourage us with word of your interest and anticipation for Bible Bowl 2008.

Thanks much,
