Study for Bible Bee

  Hey folks! Here at the House on Chew Corner we learn to embrace all different study methods especially when you're doing stuff weirdly because you can't stay focused on what you're supposed to be doing .  And when your Ephesians study for the day consists largely of deliberately scouring the study passage and cross-references for weirdness, well, we just say that at least you learned something! This is a Kahoot with two dozen REALLY WEIRD questions to help you remember Ephesians and related stuff.  It's division neutral, but NOT version neutral.  Some of the questions are unashamedly NKJV specific.  But y'all who use other versions will probably have a ton of fun as well, just you may be a little confused here and there.  I set the time limits super long: a minute per question for all the questions, so enjoy taking your time!  I'm usually super cruel and make the time limits tight, but I wanted y'all to appreciate the greatness and hilarity of these ...

Howdy, y'all! These are printable Ephesians 1-6 Greek fill-in-the-blanks worksheets to help you prep effectively for the 2025 NBBC MCT.  Here's what you need to know to use them: Blanks have been inserted in the place of every important English word or phrase  that translates a Greek word.   Exceptions:  Most conjunctions, prepositions, pronouns, and articles; the names God, Jesus, Christ, Paul, Ephesus,  and Israel . The text is taken from the New King James Version . Some words or phrases may not seem to make sense in the English because of unique Greek word order or formation .  For instance, the Greek word cheiropoietos  in Ephesians 2:11 is translated in English as "made...by hands."  However, the word Circumcision  appears in the English between made  and by hands .  In this instance there are two blanks, one for made  and one for by hands .  Cheiropoietos  should be filled in each of those two blanks....

Today I woke up at 7:09 A.M. and got dressed, then I went down stairs where Joshua and Hannah were reciting their stylishly long Senior passages. I ate breakfast, which was leftover waffles from dinner on Sunday night, and did my chore, which today was unloading at least 30 dishes from our drying rack. Then I went out and rode my newly purchased bike around the yard for about 30 minutes before I decided to go inside and do some BB. I read a book (I wasn't supposed to) after BB, then after 10 minutes Mom said to start memory and review. I reviewed my 50 plus passages and went to memorize outside; after about 1 hour Mom told me to come in because apparently I wasn’t memorizing. I went upstairs to my room and recited for Jer for 45 minutes, and then I listened to him recite for another 45 minutes. I went down and ate lunch, which today was PB&J sandwiches and potato chips, then I did my chore, which was packing up the lunch food and wiping the counters that were VERY messy. After ...

Believe it or not, Bible study and study of all kinds existed long before computers or the internet. In fact, the Apostle Paul (inspired by the Holy Spirit) used a writing utensil and some type of paper, and the concepts the Lord had taught him out in the dessert of Arabia (can you guess the cross-reference???). Like you, or your children, Paul also would have memorized A LOT of Hebrew Bible, which likely served him quite well. Paul didn't have the Strong's concordance or Easton's dictionary. He didn't have BlueLetterBible or even Google. Shocking! Bible students throughout the ages have studied the Word of God without AI, Quizlet, Blooket, or even spreadsheets. And we can do it, too! I won't get into the reasons WHY a person would want to learn how to study the Bible without using a computer. We do live in a computer age and using one is a useful and necessary skill. I use a computer every day, and some days my "off-line" studying is a bit hybrid because ...

  Hello folks! I have been coming up with such an influx of review questions this year that I figured it would be selfish and useless to keep them to myself.  After all, review questions are meant to be asked to other people!  I am channeling the overflow of my question writing into these 2025 NBBC Senior Everything Kahoots. These are fun, comprehensive, 25-question Kahoot! quizzes to help you review and prepare for the 2025 NBBC.  Here are a few facts you'll need to know about these Kahoots: They are geared toward Seniors .  All memory passage content includes all and only Senior memory passages.  However, Juniors and Primaries, there's still plenty of great review material for you in these Kahoots, just don't worry about the MP questions!  You can still take the quizzes for the other content. Speaking of the other content , here are the things you'll find on these Kahoots: 2025 NBBC Study Passage Content (anything from Ephesians 1-6) Greek words f...

Hey there, Bible Bee-er studying for the 2025 NBBC!  You've come to the right place! These are some printable Greek PDFs to help you in your original language studies of Ephesians.  I designed these for display, but they're also great for personal reference!  They outline/list some of the themes of the Book of Ephesians, in Greek! They are not intended to be a primary source for studying original language in Ephesians, but as a supplement that may help you get an idea of some of the main ideas in the epistle.  They may even inspire you to make your own! If the summaries are too NKJV-biased for you, make your own using your version!  They don't take long, and they're great for not just knowing  what the study passage says, but also understanding .  And ultimately, the reason we do BB is to know God's Word and make Him known.  We're seeking the knowledge of the Holy One more than any competition results.  So keep that in mind as you're preparin...

  6:00 am wrench myself out of warm and comfortable bed to a joltingly sudden and extremely annoying BLARING alarm get out of bed like an elephant, almost falling on my sister's head while trying to silence that exasperating alarm before my two sisters that I share a room with wake up rustle way too loudly around my helplessly messy desk for my memory box which is never where I sleengrily (sleepily + angrily) think it should be go down the hall to my brother's room and hiss at him so that he wakes up: "Joshua!  Time to recite!" walk downstairs, maintaining the undeniable grace and stealth of an overweight elephant, memory box in hand 6:05 am depending on the day, start with— Day A: slouch majestically in my chair at the bottom right corner of the dining room table, with Joshua's tealish green memory cards spread out in front of eyes that wanna stay shut, me rather a bedraggled lifeless mess only occasionally reviving to mark mistakes or tally perfect recitations D...

Hi! My name is Rebecca and I have been doing Bible Bee with my kids for the past ten years. It is hard to believe that so much time has gone by, and my kiddos who were once little Primaries are aging out of Seniors! Over the years, our day-to-day routines during Bible Bee season have changed as our kids have grown and changed. We have had many years with a new baby and a toddler or two, and now we find ourselves with eight contestants and a kindergartener who likes to think he is one of the teens. Needless to say, life now does not look like it did back then. However, there are a few things that never change, and for us one of those things is preparing for the National Bible Bee Competition. Our year is divided into two parts: the Bible Bee season and the off-season. During the off-season we focus on getting through an entire year of school. In this way we are able to focus a lot of time and attention to Bible Bee studying once it comes around. There are a few school things that we cov...
