NPH's Youth Bible Quizzing app makes it easy to study anytime, anywhere

I am excited to let you know that a quizzing app I had the pleasure to work on with the Nazarene Publishing House has just been released!

Youth Bible Quizzing (for iOS and Android; $4.99) from the Nazarene Publishing House is a simple, easy to use resource designed for Teen Bible Quizzers and Coaches.

The key features found in the app include:

• Memory Verses listed in verse order and alphabetical order. Pre-jumps are highlighted.
• Official NPH Study Questions listed by chapter
• Official NPH Study Questions listed by types of questions for those who want to specialize
• Team practice questions listed by chapter and groups of chapters. Multiple sets of 20 questions, which are formatted like a quiz match, are ideal for Coaches to lead a team practice

In addition to over 3,500 questions, the app includes other essential resources:

• Scripture portion for Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon ($3.99 version only). Scripture is presented in the typical paragraph view but also in “list view”, which treats each verse as a new line of text. This “list view” is especially beneficial for those who are specializing in the According To type of questions. Also, the Scripture Portion highlights all of the memory verses within the text.
  
• For the new coach, a review and list of recommended Quiz Supplies is provided.
  
• Quiz Practice guides provide ideas regarding how to organize a team practice and offer examples of alternative games to play with the quiz material to keep practices fresh.
  
• For the new quizzer – or the experienced quizzer looking to improve – the app outlines an effective Teen Bible Quiz study plan to accelerate learning and prevent “burn-out” from doing the same thing day after day.
  
• The Official Rules and Guidelines for Nazarene Teen Bible Quizzing is provided as a live link to ensure the most recent edition is readily available
  
• Keep in touch with the Nazarene Bible Quizzing community through the Nazarene Youth Bible Quizzing Facebook tab within the app.
  

As the sets and lists of questions are pre-configured, you can be studying or leading a quiz practice within 2 taps of the screen - no setup required!

Competition Sets of questions for Team Practices

Though full of features and content, this app is meant to be a companion - not a replacement - to the quiz books available at NPH. I still recommend that each quizzer get the books available in the Quizzers Kit. One main reason is to provide a kinesthetic (tactile) learning experience that you can't replicate with a glowing screen. And besides, you can't make notes on which questions you miss the most in the app. At least not yet.
