It's a nationwide race through the Bible over a two year time frame. Any Youth Ministry can join.
How does it work?
Any student who would like to participate will be placed on a team of 4-7 teenagers including an adult team leader. The Bible has been separated into 6 sections, so the race will consist of 6, 12 week legs. Each team member will purchase the field guide for the current leg of the race. Each day the team members will read the chapter(s) for the day and then follow up with the devotion for that chapter in the field.
After completing the reading for that day there are challenges, quizzes, and hurdles that must be completed to earn points for the team. some things will need to be completed as a team. Other challenges will be completed on your own time on www.amazingbiblerace.com. You will have a personal log-in to use the website.
Each week the team leader will contact each team member to follow up with them on their reading. Throughout the race the team will meet together to complete challenges.
The top 10 teams who have read the entire Bible and earned the most points based on quiz scores and completed challenges will win $500 for the mission trip of their choice or for a missions organization.
How much does it cost?
It costs $6 for each field guide. So $6 every 12 weeks.
What do I have to do?
Simply sign up to join a team, pay us $6 for the field guide, and commit to reading your Bible and completing tasks. This is no small thing. It's a real challenge.
When should I sign up by?
Now!!! We will start this race no later than the first week of November. Once we have everyone signed up we will contact you and make teams. Leave a comment with your name, # and email. I will not post it on the blog.
