More on the National Bible Bee

While we quiz as a team, there are other ways to learn the Bible and and compete to sharpen that knowledge. One example is the National Bible Bee. And yes, similar to a Spelling Bee, it is all about complete knowledge of the text.
Jason Epps has cerebral palsy but has the attitude of a marathon runner. What others see as a disability, Jason views as a challenge.

This summer, instead of training on the track, he's flexing his brain. Along with 16,000 other youngsters across the country, Jason is preparing for a chance to compete at the first National Bible Bee in Washington.

"The way I look at it, it's just a way for me to get stronger," says the 16-year-old Freedom High School junior.
If you remember Coach Phil from Clinton Corners, he is now on staff with the National Bible Bee. So we have more than one connection to this national scriptural contest.
