THIS WEEK: Review Acts, Chapters 11-14

This week (December 18 thru December 24), please review Acts, Chapters 11-14.

There is no practice next week due to Christmas Eve, but all Trumbull quizzers are invited to join the Monroe Bible Quiz Team at Beacon Hill Church in Monroe, CT to quiz on Acts 15 on Monday, December 22!

If you need the materials to review/study any specific chapter, please click on the link below:
Study Tip:  Next Wednesday is Christmas Eve and the Wednesday after that is New Years Eve.  That is three whole weeks without a practice, so it may be tempting to lose yourself in holiday cheer and forget all about Bible Quizzing.  DON'T DO IT!  Christmas is the time we celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, the very man that the apostles are spending all of Acts talking about.  Set aside some time each day over the next two weeks to review, and you'll find your Christmas season substantially enhanced.

Upcoming Events:
- January 17 - Midwinter Quiz Meet in Monroe, CT

THIS WEEK: Study Acts, Chapter 14

This week (December 11 thru December 17), please study Acts, Chapter 14.  

Next week's practice is cancelled as the church is closed.  But you are invited to join the Monroe Team on Monday from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM at Beacon Hill Church in Monroe, CT.

Study Tip: Are you taking full advantage of the tools available to you for studying?  While we provide commentaries, MP3s, puzzles, lists of reference and FTV questions, scripture portions and keywords, many quizzers wind up just doing the same old thing and just read the chapters for their studying.  There is nothing wrong with that, but it can become old hat after a while and you can lose the excitement that comes with new discoveries.  Consider really digging into ALL of the tools at your disposal to reignite your excitement for Bible Quizzing!
