Hello everyone! I wanted to let you know that an Official 2023 National Bible Bee group has been created, and I will be adding all of the Summer Study passages in all versions shortly! Please let me know if you have any questions. :)
https://biblememory.com/group/view/5ac20469d5/

Thanks, Paisley! God bless you!
In case anyone is interested, here's a link to the new 2022 Official group! Currently only ESV is up, but I will be working on the other versions over the course of the next few days. :) https://biblememory.com/group/view/c4ecd98b45/
Hello!
In past years I have created an official NBB Bible Memory group (with the NBB Staff), and I was wondering, would that be a helpful resource for people again this year?
Let me know! Excited to be studying Ruth with you all! ~Paisley, National Bible Bee Alumna
Yes but it can sting all the same.

FACT: The Bible is not a type of bee. Your welcome.
Just went ahead and added Senior CF's, FR's, and ER's, Junior ER's, and Primary ER's. I'll try to get the Junior and Primary FR's on here soon. :)
@Group Members: Hello! So sorry I have vanished for the past while...Busy summer! If there are any passages you all would like me to add, just let me know, and I'll be on it! Thank you!
Please Join my group Memorize God Word! thank you.
At Grace: thank you so much! I have been Traveling a lot this year, so I am behind lol I really appreciate it!
@Clara, I went ahead and added the rest of the divisions' summer study passages and ERs, as well as Acts in passages/chapters :)
Why does Bible Bee release Summer Study before it actually starts.
@Paisley B.: Thank you for that info!
You're welcome, Clara and Noah! For anyone else who is interested, all versions and divisions have been added for the Summer Study to the group I shared the link for below.
@Paisley: Thank you! I just joined the group. :)
@Clara: I found them! Thanks!
@Paisley B.:Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it!!
@Noah: Yes! I added it yesterday. I will double check to make sure though. :)
@Clara: Did Acts 1-11 verse by verse get added?
@Everyone: Does anyone have any other collections they would like added for BB?
@MicahJustus: Removed. lol
on the app. You can delete your own messages on the website.
Oh weird... you can only delete messages if you’re an admin of the group.... even if they’re your messages 🤷♀️
It won’t let me on the app for sum reason...
😂 You should be able to delete it yourself....
smh can someone delete that (i feel so stupid rn 🤦♂️ 😂
@Paisley B.:Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it!!
Here is the link to the Official 2021 Group! Thus far, only the NKJV verses have been added, but more will be on there soon, Lord willing! Let me know if you have any problems.
https://biblememory.com/group/view/569233ea8a/
@Noah & Clara, I don't have the link yet, but once I do I will post it here!
@Paisley: I would love to have the link as well to the Official BB group once it becomes available!
"2021 Primary Summer Study Passages" and "2021 Junior Summer Study Passages" have been added!
Can someone add the Junior SS Mps, please?
@Paisley: Can you send the link to the group please? Thanks! @Clara: Thank you!
Thank you Paisley B.! That is awesome!
"2021 Senior Summer Study Passages" has been added! I hope to get the rest done soon. Feel free to add this years BB SS passage collections if you beat me to it though. 😉
Hey! I just wanted to let you know that there WILL be an Official Bible Bee group this year, so I will let you all know when the verses are added so that you can add them to this group. Looking forward to studying Witness with you all!
@Timothy: Yes, I do. That is strange that you don't get notified for your group as that is how BM works.? Hmmmm, joining as an admin does sound fishy... The only way they could become an admin is if you allowed it.
In my own group I never got a notification when some stranger joined. I don't know if that stranger hacked but they also got in as an admin.
Do you get a message every time someone joins?
Welcome Timothy! We're glad to have you!
Welcome JohnStrubhar! Glad to have you!
Hi ZachBix! Welcome to the group!
Welcome BECCA S. and Heaven! We are glad to have you join us!
Welcome Philip! We are glad you have joined us!
NEW verse collection! "Psalm 99-50 Verse By Verse"
NEW verse collection! "Psalms 150-100 Verse By Verse" Psalms 99-50 coming soon!
NEW verse collection!! "Beatitudes"
Welcome 🍕MomOf9+2😎 G.! We are glad to have you!
*Laughing at all the silly group photos that keep changing* Still have not figured it out. lol Chicken nuggets is the photo of the day!!
@Clara R.: I agree. Something strange has been going on. I hope you figure it out! :) Merry Christmas!
Bravery is not the opposite of fear; it’s doing what you know is right even though you’re afraid. It’s fighting in the dark night because you know the dawn lies ahead.
– Darrik (a character from Kat Ingles)
@Jonathan: Yeah, true. That is what it looks like the more I look around. It is very bizarre. 🤷🏼♀️
I think is is more of a sitewide thing.
I understand. I don't think it is anyone here tho because a group in which I am the only admin is having the same problem.
Have a very merry Christmas everyone!
What!!!!!!! Mr. Potato! Or something like that... What is going on? Please, whoever you are, stop messing with my group photos. I don't appreciate it, and I do not think it is funny.
@Jonathan: I agree. 🤔 I am not quite sure what is going on. I haven’t been able to change it at all, so not sure what is happening. 🤷🏼♀️
Something weird is happening with the group logos. Every day about five of the groups I'm in change their logo, all to the same thing. Anyone know what's going on?

@Mae: It may help others to find your group if you attach a link for the group. That way, people are not scanning through hundreds of other groups in order to find yours. :) Just a suggestion.
Welcome Mae! We are glad you have joined us!
please join my new group called help in difficult times
@Jonathan: That is a great quote, and how true. Thank you for sharing!
"Worrying does not take away tomorrow's troubles - it only takes away today's peace."
“The time is always right to do what is right.”
Did anyone notice that the group Legend of God is using cheat verses?
@Penguino yes I am his encouraging buddy for this year. :)
Whoah! It posted three times?? Lol Sorry everyone!
Also, a rather late welcome to Ephy!

Here is a quote that I found amusing, but also encouraging. 😂 It is by Albert Einstein. " Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole live believing that it is stupid."
@Penguino: Unfortunately, there is not an official 2020 National Bible Bee group. The group Bible Bee 2020 Locals is not the official, but it is a great group and they have everything that you would need for Nationals there. This group also has all of the Summer Study and National Passages. Please feel free to ask me to add any verses you may want to work on. :) Thank you for joining!
@Nehemiah are you my brother’s buddy? My brother is Matthew Lee
is it bible bee 2020 locals?
I could not find the official bible bee 2020 group
Welcome Penguino and jeremy!
Welcome Ansel and JaJa! Thank you for joining! Please feel free to ask any questions about what we are studying etc. :)
Welcome B.S.! We are glad to have you join our group. :)
@J-1of5: Awesome! So glad it worked.
Yes, I can see it! Thank you, Clara!
Alright, "2020 Senior Remaining Passages" is now showing up. It is right between Senior SS and Senior ER collections. Let me know if it still can't be accessed. :) Sorry about all that guys!
@Nehimiah J.: Wow! That's is awesome. No, this year I was too busy and just did the SS memorizing. :)
Okay, I will re-add them. Hopefully it will work this time!
@ Clara oh okay! Yes I did make Nationals. Did you?
I’m not seeing the collection either. Maybe try it again, @Clara?
I'm not able to see the Senior FR passages....
@Nehemiah J. Thank you for your kind offer! Thankfully, I was able to get a collection from Emma. :) Did you make it to Nationals?
@GroupMembers: Senior FR's are now added!
I have a Seniors FR Collection but don't know how to add them.
@J-1of5: yes! I will try to add them ASAP. I'm sorry I haven't gotten them on here sooner! :(
@GroupMembers: Junior and Primary FR's are now added! Thank you AuroraBeam for the collections. :) Now Seniors are up next. 😁 If any of you fellow seniors have access to a Senior FR collection or verses and would be willing to add them on here, I would be most appreciative! I'm not moving on to Nat's, so unfortunately I personally don't have access to them. :(
@Nadia: I'm so sorry! I've been really busy and haven't been on ST. No, the S, J, and P FR's are not on here yet. I'll try to get them on here once I get access though. :) Thank you for your patience!
@AuroraBeam: Thank you so much! That is a HUGE help! You are an admin now. :)
@Clara R: I can also add the Junior and Primary verses on this group and the 2020 locals group :)
Could you add the Junior FR verses? Or did I miss them and they're already there.
Hi! Could y'all add the Senior Final release, please?
@Nehemiah Jaster: Awesome!
Thank you Grace and Clara! That's all I need right now!
@Group Members: If there are any Juniors and/or Primaries that have access to the FR's and would be willing to add them for me, I would be most appreciative! Thanks!
@Nehemiah, If there is any other verses/passages you need, please feel free to let know and I'll add them for you. :)
@Grace: Thank you for adding that! Oh, nice! Sounds like what I was doing this year. Next year will be my last for BB before I also age out. :) I got really busy with college and high school (duel enrollment) so I ran out of time! XD
@Nehemiah, I went ahead and added John 16-21 in verses, so that's a start at least!
@Clara thank you! I was looking for the Study Passage though-John 16-21. If not that's okay
@Clara, did you mean me? I'm actually in my second year of college and aged out of BB last year. Hence I wasn't really studying for Nationals xP However, I can see why you were confused. I was memorizing the passages and such over the summer for fun since I had some spare time :) BB is awesome, take advantage of it while you can!
@Nehemiah Jaster: Yes they are! I will also add the FR's as soon as they are available. :)
Hey, is there the Nationals passage here?
@Grace: How has your memorizing been going? Did you qualify?
@Rebekah Che: Hi! I'm so sorry it took this long...I finally changed Ezekiel 18:19-22 to Ezekiel 18:19-27. :)
@Rebekah: thanks for the info! Yes! I will change that for you ASAP. Thank you for noticing that!
Hello! I just noticed while looking at my verse cards that the Junior ER collection has Ezekiel 18:19-22 instead of Ezekiel 18:19-27. Could someone with admin powers change this?
I would love to add a group picture but it unfortunately doesn't work for me either. I could be wrong, but I tried once with my profile picture and I think it works on the Internet Explorer browser, if you happen to have that on your computer.
Or a picture of nature, such as flowers, water scenes, mountains...etc.
This might seem a little silly, but unfortunately my computer doesn't work well with Bible Memory, and it won't allow me to add a group picture. If you would like to add a group picture for me, I would be most appreciative! The group picture must be Bible related, and I would prefer Bible Bee related, such as the our group study as "Trust" or a verse about trusting, or just Bible bee! Thank you all!!
Welcome Nadia! Thank you for joining us. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have, and I will try to answer the to the best of my ability. :)
Welcome ClaireB.! Glad to have you. :)
@MicahJustus: Cool, thanks!
@MicahJustus: that's a cool quote... is that from one of his songs?
@MicahJustus: That is a good one! Thank you for sharing!
"I'm not a Christian because I'm strong and have it all together, I'm a Christian because I'm weak and admit I need a savior."- Lecrae
@MicahJustus: Romans is great! That is probably one of my favorite NT books to memorize also. :)
Wow! Mine is Psalms also! They are so beautiful, poetic, and probably one of the easier ones to memorize. XD @Grace: Thank you! That prom is one of my favorite s. It is so inspiring when you feel God just doesn't always hear you!
My favorite OT book to memorize from is Psalms and my favorite NT book to memorize from is Romans
And I think my favorite book to memorize from is Psalms. They are so beautiful!
@Clara, great poem! Thx for sharing :)
@All: I'm just curious...But what is everyones favorite book of the Bible to memorize from? I have my favorite, but I'll share that later. :D Or, do you prefer the old or new testament?
@Emma: Yes I do! Russell Kelfer. @MicahJustus: That's great! Here on my laptop it just looks like a big bunch of smashed text lol
That’s a beautiful poem! Do you know who it is written by?
A poem that I have found encouraging lately. I know, BM didn't let me put it in all nice and neat like a poem should be...lol
Desperately, helplessly, longingly I cried;
Quietly, patiently, lovingly, God replied.
I pled and I wept for a clue to my fate…
And the Master so gently said, “Wait”.
“Wait? You say wait?” My indignant reply.
“Lord, I need answers, I need to know why!
Is your hand shortened, or have you not heard?
By faith I have asked, and I’m claiming your Word.
My future and all to which I relate hangs in the balance,
And you tell me to Wait?
I’m needing a ‘yes,’ a go-ahead sign.
Or even a ‘no’ to which I’ll resign.
You promised, dear Lord, that if we believe,
We need but to ask, and we shall receive.
Lord, I’ve been asking, and this is my cry:
I’m weary of asking! I need a reply.”
The quietly, softly, I learned of my fate,
As my Master replied again, “Wait.”
So I slumped in my chair, defeated and taut,
And grumbled to God, “So, I’m waiting…
For what?”
He seemed then to kneel, and HIs eyes met with mine…
And He tenderly said, “I could give you a sign.
I could shake the heavens and darken the sun.
I could raise the dead and cause the mountains to run.
I could give you all you seek and pleased you would be.
You’d have what you want, but you wouldn’t know Me.
You’d not know the depth of My love for each saint.
You’d not know the power that I give to the faint.
You’d not learn to see though the clouds of despair;
You’d not lean to trust just by knowing I’m there.
You’d not know the joy of resting in Me,
When darkness and silence are all you can see.
You’d never experience the fullness of love,
When the peace of my Spirit descends like a dove.
You would know that I give, and I save, for a start,
But you’d not know the depth of the beat of My heart.
The glow of My comfort late into the night,
The faith that I give when you walk without sight.
The depth that’s is beyond getting just what you ask
From an infinite God who makes what you have last.
You’d never know should your pain quickly flee,
What it means that My grace is sufficient for thee.
Yes, your dearest dreams overnight would come true,
But, oh, the loss, if you missed what I’m doing in you.
So, be silent, my child, and in time you will see,
That the greatest of gifts is to truly know me.
And though oft My answers seem terribly late,
My most precious answer of all is still….Wait.”
"You are who you are when no one is looking." -anon.
Hey! It just takes practice! Just like any other sport. :)
@Clara: ooo volleyball! I like it...I'm just really really bad at it... xD
Volleyball is... uh... not my favorite sport. 🤕
@MicahJustus: Cool! I don't play a lot of basketball, but I do enjoy it. I'm a big volleyball fan. Our net is nearly always set up cause we play so much. lol
I've only listened to 3 or 4 of his songs
Heard of 'em all although I don't think I've listened to any Sho Baraka
Not really...only when they played GS..
Were you ever a Cavs fan?
And yep I'm a lakers and mavs fan! xD
Derek Minor, KJ-52, Bizzle, and Sho Baraka?
I know, I know... but I'm going to stick with them... don't tell me your a Lakers fan...?
@MicahJustus: Lol I absolutely don't like GS. They are soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo bad this year! xD
Never heard of Deraj... I guess I'll check him out, along with Kamban!
Do you guys have a favorite sport/sports?
lol I guess I fall into that category
it’s crazy, most people have no idea who these people are.
Is lost with all those names..😂
@Aurora Beam: Thank you! It is one of my favs. 😁
Have you heard off Rapzilla?
cool! I'll check him out later!
@Noah: If you have a newish device...... I don't. LOL
Airpods is the way to go guys..😂
What do you mean? like music app, or headphones, or what device?
@MicahJustus: What do you listen to music with?
It’s just Home but yeah that’s a good one
Thanks! Until I'm Home is my fav! (I think that's what it's called)
Ah! so many I am missing!!! and it’s Tedashii with two i’s
And for all those others..i have no idea who they are. xD
Yesssss! Tedashi is the best!
Also Flame, Canon, WHATUPRG, and Steven Malcom.
@MicahJustus: Haha, those are good ones too!
@Clara: I love that verse!
The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliver; my God, my strength, in whom I trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. Psalm 18:2
Your kidding... it's like you just chose like all the Christian rappers I like! I also like Gawvi, Lecrae, KB, Andy Mineo and Trip Lee!
Zauntee is a good one too
Yeah, Ty Brasel, Aaron Cole, NF, Dillon Chase, Bizzle, Social Club Misfits, MARTY, to name a few xD
Do you listen to any other Christian singers/rappers?
Same😂 I’m listening to rn
😂 I love that one! My favorite is I hope.
he just became one of my favorite artists....
LOL I have definitely heard the veggie tales remix 😂
it's another Christian Hip-hop/rapper who is pretty funny.
Have you heard of Shama Mrema?
Cool! those ones are really good!
@MicahJustus: That's cool! Mine is probably the PEAceful introduction and Big Feelings.
@AuroraBeam Yeah! My favorite song by him is Backpack ft Marty! What's yours?
@Doughnut: Welcome! Glad to have you. :)
Thanks for sharing that quote! So true
@Micah Justus: Welcome to the group!

But I do REALLY enjoy memorizing, so I probably will still memorize at least some of the national verses. :P And I will coach you all who made it!!!
@Noah&AuroraBeam: Yes! I know. Keeps you in suspense. :) I didn't take the test because I have been working on college stuff... and ran out of time to get really prepared. :(
@Clara: Thanks! Don't we still have 12 days until the results are released? That's going to be painful...
Happy Proclaim Day guys!!!!! I am looking forward to hearing about who all made it. :-)

@J-10f5: I will check and add it. :) Worse case, I can admin you so you could add it.

Awesome! I will admin you so you can add them. Thank you so much! 😁

I have access to both if you want me too add those😁
Thx guys! Does anyone have access to the Junior or Primary ER's? Unfortunately, I don't. 🙃
I just added that passage. Thanks for seeing that! 😄
Hi guys! Thanks to the admins for adding the ER passages. I think the Senior ER collection is missing Leviticus 19:4-5....😀
Wow! Great quotes Noah and Grace. Thx for sharing. 😀

@noah he’s not famous 😄 most people have never heard of him, they’re missing out...
@AuroraBeam: Oh ok! I know like no famous singers, so it's not surprising that I don't know who that is! xD
@Noah he is a Christian hip-hop/rapper, his songs kinda crack me up a lot 😆
@AuroraBeam: Lol I don’t know...😂 but that is a good one!
“that’s the good thing about voices, listening to them is only one of two choices” that’s from PEABOD if any of y’all know who that is XD
@Kimber and Emma: Thanks for sharing! Those are both really encouraging!
“...Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning” -Psalm 30:5 (ESV)
I love that one too Kimber!
Here is one that I like. :) “The darkest nights produce the brightest stars.”
@Noah, Nice! I like that one. :)
@Rosemary and Clara: Those are good ones! Thanks for sharing! This one is from Stonewall Jackson: "Duty is ours, consequences are God's."
Hi everyone. :) Cool idea Clara! Here is one of my favorites...“Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and think about what could go right”
Here is one to start with. 😀
“Every day may not be good, but there is something good in every day.”
@Noah, Yes! When a quote or verse stands out for you, you can post it on here. :)
@Clara so can we just do a quote anytime?
That sounds like a neat idea, Clara! Hopefully a lot of members will be able to participate :)
Or does anyone have any suggestions?
👍🏼 Awesome! Do you have any suggestions on how to make it better?
@Clara that sounds fine with me!
Okay, so I have a couple suggestions...
#1 What do you all think about everyone posting a Bible verse that blessed them that day? You don't have to do it every day, but just when one especially blessed you. That way, that verse can bless others!
#2 When you find a good and encouraging quote, why don’t you think about posting it on here? I LOVE good quotes and find them uplifting through the day. :)
Just an idea. :)
Some rules though... IF something that is posted is inappropriate or discouraging to others, I will delete that comment. IF that person continues to post inappropriate and discouraging comments, they will be deleted from the group if they are a member. Thank you!
Just an idea. :) Let me know either way!
God Bless.
Good to hear Noah!
I must also confess I am also behind. XD But I’m getting there. :)
Good! I'm sorta behind though. :( I'm only on passage 10 and I haven't even started my CF's! But I have memorized a good chunk of Genesis 37-50! How is your memorizing going Clara?
NP! How is everyones memorizing going?
Welcome new group members! We are glad you decided to join us! Please feel free to ask me any questions you might have. I would love to answer any questions to my ability. :)
Junior and Primary CR’s are added! Sorry it took me so long. XD!
2020 Senior CR’s are added!
Hey y’all! I have added the SS passages now for all three divisions! Let me know if there is anything else you’d need. Happy Memorizing. :)
I mean the Summer Study Passages...Lol! :D
No problem! I also added another collection with the SS in full chapters. Hope it helps!
Thanks, Clara! That's great!
Hi Everyone! I have added the 2020 Summer Study Passages in individual verses! Look below👇🏻for the collection. :)
Welcome new group members! We are glad you have joined us!
@ Group Members: I have added a new verse collection called “All Verses with TRUST #1”. It is not part of the BB, but I thought it was a neat study and decided to post it on here. :) The next two will be coming out shortly. Thank you!
Hey group members! I have changed our groups name! Look forward to memorizing with you all this new season. :)
Bible Bee 2020 SS/Nationals: Trust
Stay safe during COVID 19 friends! 😊😷
@Group Members, I will be changing the name of our group here shortly, so be aware of that. :)
@Group Members, Hi everyone! I was just wondering if there was anything ya’ll wanted to memorize during down times before Bible Bee starts again this summer. I know you all might like having a break though... just curious. :) Feel free to let me know if you have any ideas and/or verses you would like to work on. Thanks you guys!
CONGRATS NATIONAL SIMI FINALISTS AND FINALISTS!!! YOU DID IT!
Sure, I can delete you:) But we’d rather have you stay...
I accidentally signed on this group ... could the leader please delete me from this group. THANK you!
yes! I know! It came up so fast!
@Group Members; Nats is in 12 days!!!
Ok, added "2019 FR SR ESV"
@Bible Bee Boy, Yes, there should be... I'll check and make sure. If it is missing, I will be sure to add it for you. :)
do you have FR I can not find it
@Rosemary, yes... very weird but umm what I've been told by several friends "that's BibleMemory for you!" : )
@Trinity C., I have the same prob! All groups that i am in have the same verses... but i have dramatically ranging verses current. :(
@Kosmasfam, mine did the same thing... I finally figured out that I was memorizing from the "Master list" which had extra verses not in the group verses.. . very confusing & still is. right now I have over 100 verses memorized but on this group I only have 89 (I think) so..... not sure why but it's not just you.
Why does it show that we have 131 verses on “group members”, but on “my verses” 164 verses?
@Clara, The dates for Nats are Nov. 18-21. :)
@Group Members, What is the dates for Nats?
@Group Members, Hi guys! How is it going? I’d love to get updates...
@Group Members, Hey everyone! I just added the 2019 National collections for SR, JR, and PR.
I guess I should thank both you (Clara) & Rosemary... for inviting me. thanks people!
@Group Members, Hi everyone! I went ahead and added all the rest of the verses that are available right now. Hope that helps! Just let me know if I need to fix anything, or if you’d prefer; I can admin you so you can fix it yourself. Also, feel free to let me know if there are repeats on any of the collections.
God bless you, and may these next weeks cause you all (and me) to grow in God’s word!
@Grace, Yes I am planning to add the National passages!! So glad that your test went well. :) I didn’t end up taking the test, due to some things that came up... so I won’t be seeing ya’ll at Nats. :) Oh well, maybe next year. I will do my best though to keep the verses updated. :) Have a blessed fall as you memorize. :)
@Clara, pretty well, thanks for asking! Are you planning on adding the remaining Nationals passages?
@ Group Members, Hi everyone! How did your testing go?
@Group Members, Hi guys! Sorry for any inconvenience it may cause.... I changed our group name to "Bible Bee 2019 SS/Nationals: Worship”, since I will be adding National verses along side the usual SS verses. :) God Bless. :)
@Group Members, I added the rest of the ER’s, finally. :) Good news! I just found “ Official 2019 National Bible Bee.” Its verses current are “554”, but that is subject to change.... :D
@Group Members, Week eight is over... are you getting excited yet? These next few days is what you have been working towards the past eight weeks! Can you believe it? Happy testing!! :) God bless :D
@Group Members, It is week eight.... the finish line is almost in view. It’s exciting isn’t it? Keep pressing ahead towards your goal! Don’t give up. :) Have a blessed and productive week.
@Group Members, Hi guys! It’s week seven... can you believe it? I know that by this time you may be feeling like you are losing momentum, but keep up the good work! The race isn’t finished yet. :) Only two more weeks to go before the test dates. :) Have a awesome week studying and memorizing. :D
@Group Members, "NB Early Release Passages” are here!!
@Joy M. They are here just for fun. :)
Just curious, are the shortest verses in the Bible just in here for fun, or are they verses that will be used in the Bible Bee?
@Clara, no problem! Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to make the set myself, or I would be happy to add it. I'll let you know if I end up making the set before you do, but I doubt I'll be able to since our family will be very busy over the next few days for one reason or the other.
@Group Members, Hi everyone! I am falling a little behind schedule... so sadly I won’t be getting around to adding the “early release passages” for a few more days. If anyone already has a collection made, it would save me a lot of time and would be a huge blessing! Thank you all so much :)
@Grace +@Jonathan, You’re welcome:) Have fun!! :P
New collection available! “The Shortest Verses in the Bible” Updated from “The Shortest Verses”
@Grace, Ok, great! I’ll just leave it as is since it may just be for the KJV. :)
@Clara, I hadn't noticed, but that's probably cause I use NKJV xP
@Clara, Hi! Thanks for asking, I was having the same problem. :) I personally would rather have them all “inquire”. But either way is just fine with me. :D
@Group Members, Hi guys! I was wondering if y’all wanted me to fix the various inquires/enquires in the verses. Both ways are correct, but I’m always getting tripped up on the “I” or “E”. :) Would you rather have “inquire” or “enquire”? Both are fine with me. :P Or would you rather me just leave it as is? Thanks!
Hi everyone! It is a new week, and a fresh start to our Discovery Journal. May you all have a great week memorizing and studying for the big day of... tests! Let me know if there is anything you’d like to study but that is not on here currently. I’d love to add it for you! Keep up the good work. 😉
@Grace, It is going pretty good, I need to catch up on my review though. :) I didn’t get around to it all weekend since we were pretty busy. :D
@Clara, pretty well. Thanks for asking! How about you?
Hi guys! How is everyone’s memorizing going? Let me know if there is anything that I need to update or fix. I hope ya’ll have a great weekend. :D
@Bible Bee 2019 Locals:Worship Group Members, Hi Bible Bee friends! I will be adding the NBB early release passages Lord willing on June 24 or 25. 😊
@Clara, oh I see! And thanks!! :)
@Grace, Thank you so much!
@Clara, yes! I went ahead and added the Senior cross-references. Let me know if there are any problems viewing/etc. or if you catch any mistakes.
Ok, I just did that, any change? :)
@Clara, in order for me to add the set you have to make me an admin temporarily. Otherwise, I can't add anything. As soon as I add the CRs, though, you can un-admin me again if you wish.
Hi Joy M., I am so glad you joined! I actually didn’t know to invite you... I just invited your whole group. 😊 That is the easy way I guess. :) I hope you have a wonderful trip to India. :)
Hi Grace! I am sooo sorry, I completely forgot about adding the Senior cross-references. :) That would great if you would add your set! Thanks so much. :)
Hi guys! @Clara thanks for inviting me to join! I'm not planning to be in the Bible Bee competition (I will actually be in India at that time!) but I do like to memorize the verses with my friends! I am really curious though, how did you even know to invite me?
@Clara, thank you! Are you planning on adding the Senior cross-references? If so, I might be able to save you some time because I already have the set made. No problem either way :)
Hi everyone! I just updated "Study Passages SS 2019 Local”. I also added "Primary Local SS 2019". They should be all set and ready to go. :) Just let me know if I missed a verse. I hope they will all be helpful to you. God Bless.
Hi everyone! Welcome to Bible Bee 2019 Locals:Worship. I hope that you all have a wonderful summer as we work to study God’s word together. I will keep the verses updated, and will try to get the primaries on here soon. :)
