Tonight was the final Bible Bowl Battle and it was exciting. Everyone was sporting their new lime green shirts with the winning design from our T-Shirt vote. We had 120+ fans watching the action. The first game between the Stones and the Kings was close throughout with the Stones winning in the end 10,000 to 8,000 (Joseph decided that all questions were for 1,000 points since it was the final battle). The action really heated up in the second game between the Angels and the All-Stars. In an incredible display of Biblical knowledge, neither team missed a single question during the regulation time. We had to go to a scripture quoting overtime period, and the Angels edged out the All-Stars by one question with a final score of 24,000 to 23,000. I think it is safe to say that everyone in attendance, including both of our pastors, were amazed by the performance of all four teams. Thanks to everyone who came out and supported the Bible Bowlers tonight. Thanks especially to all the kids who participated.
I am so proud of all the Bible Bowl kids. They have worked so hard for the past few months and they are all true champions. They did a fantastic job and have hidden lots of scripture in their hearts. I can imagine God looking down, cheering them on, with a great big smile! Thanks to everyone who helped in making this possible.
