How about a game of trivia? Going through the letters of the alphabet (more than once, depending on participation), post the name of a person, place, or thing in the Bible, along with the Scripture it's found in.... we'll call it Bible Trivia 101? LOL....

I'll start to give you an example...

A...........
ADAM: And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. Gen. 2:19 (KJV)

Next is B.

BATHSHEBA: And David sent and enquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; for she was purified from her uncleanness: and she returned unto her house. And the woman conceived, and sent and told David, and said, I am with child.

2 Samuel11:3-5 (KJV)

F - Frankincense

Then The Lord said to Moses, "Take fragrant spices - gum resin, onycha and galbanum - and pure frankincense, all in equal amounts, and make a fragrant blend of incense, the work of a perfumer. It is to be salted and pure and sacred. Grind some of it to powder and place it in front of the Testimony in the Tent of Meeting, where I will meet with you. It shall be most holy to you. Do not make any incense with this formula for yourselves; consider it holy to The Lord. Whoever makes any like it to enjoy its fragrance must be cut off from his people." (Exodus 30:34-38 NIV)

F - Frankincense

Good one! I didn't realize until a few years ago the significance of the Wise men bringing Frankincense to the baby Jesus. I just thought it was a costly gift... when I learned that it was the spice used for embalming dead bodies, I was blown away. How prophetic! It's amazing to me how the pieces of the puzzle all fit together. There's so much to discover within the pages of God's Word! So many parallels and links that I will never in my lifetime learn even a fraction of them... I love finding each nugget though. So cool!
