Northside Christian Church is excited to announce the beginning of a new Bible Bowl season. Each Sunday night at 6:00PM students in grades 5-12 meet to study selected sections of scripture and to practice using the buzzer system and prepared practice questions. These practice sessions prepare us to go and compete monthly against other churches in our district. From October - May monthly Round Robins will be held, these larger competitions prepare the students to compete at the National Bible Bowl, this year to be held in Indianapolis, Indiana July 3-7. Throughout the year we will do little things to raise the money needed to offset travel expenses.
Bible Bowl is more than just a Bible Trivia game. On the National Level students compete for scholarship money to sponsoring Christian Colleges. The great thing is any team can go to the National Bible Bowl, there is no pre-qualifying.
While we invite the 5th graders to practice with us they are actually ineligible to compete until 6th grades. A junior Bible Bowl for grades 3-5 is available at the National Bible Bowl, however, Georgia is still working on organizing this junior level. Here at Northside we ask our 5th graders to be our "Assistant Coaching Team" so that they are prepared for competition when they enter 6th grade.
We invite you to come and see one of our practice sessions, look over the material we are studying and see what all the excitement is about.

Bible Bowl sounds great. I would like to offer www.holybibletrivia.org as a free resource to help kids prepare for Bible Bowl. I will work at programming the changes if you let me know what is required. Thank you for your time. All the glory to God.
