Sharpening Arrows: A Family’s Guide to the National Bible Bee
Every summer, families nationwide step into something extraordinary: a journey of scripture, discipleship, and connection through the National Bible Bee. At Masterpiece Academy, we’re honored to walk with parents and children as they grow in faith, and we’ve created a special episode of our Learning by Design Podcast to help you do just that.
Why the Bible Bee Matters For Your Family?
In our latest podcast, John and Krishna Cart—regional hosts of the Bible Bee and leaders at Masterpiece Academy—break down what this life-changing journey looks like. From the first click of registration to the joy of Proclaim Day and the challenge of the national competition, this episode is your roadmap.
Why Join the Bible Bee?
Did you know that only 3% of American teens read the Bible daily, and 64% of church-raised young adults are no longer engaged in their 20s? That’s not just a statistic. It’s a wake-up call.
But there’s hope. The Bible Bee is more than a competition—it’s a movement of families diving deep into God’s Word. Over eight weeks, you'll walk with your children through study, memory, and meaningful conversations.
What's Inside the Bible Bee Journey?
-
A rich, structured summer Bible study
-
Proclaim Day, where students speak Scripture aloud
-
A national qualifying test that challenges and rewards
-
A week-long finale with families from across the country
-
And most importantly? A stronger bond with God’s Word and each other
“Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth.” — Psalm 127:4
This is our time to sharpen those arrows.
