Bible Bee

Ah man, I still have made almost no progress on memorizing the verses for Bible Bee. The difficult thing about the Bible Bee vs the Spelling Bee is that if there is a word you haven't studied that shows up in the Spelling Bee, you can still get it by sounding it out and guessing. With the Bible Bee, that is impossible, unless you happen to be a pastor who knows "Hmmm. Romans 1-3 is about condemnation so Romans 3:23 should be something like 'For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.' hmmmm." Unfortunately, I'm not that good at guessing so I have to learn the verses the hard way.

  1. What you need is to learn how my dad does it. He can do what you described with just about any Bible passage.

  2. Yeah, Cal is a walking concordance and has huge sections of the Bible memorized. When he was in seminary, I don't think he had any Greek or Hebrew translations that he didn't already have memorized in English.
