1. ONE WORD
3-15 people play.
One Biblical hero is riddled. One player must guess it,
and the rest help him. Everyone takes turns saying one word that is associated with this hero.
For example, Adam is guessed. Words for it can be: first, sin, prohibition, etc. The next player to guess is the one on whose word the correct answer was given.

2. BIBLE HERO
This is a game for children or those just beginning to study the Bible.
5-10 people play.
Each participant writes on a small piece of paper the name of one Biblical hero, the story of which he himself knows well. Then the leaves are rolled up and mixed. The players draw one piece of paper and take turns telling about the Biblical hero whose name they got.
If the player finds it difficult to tell the story, then the one who wrote the name that was dropped should help him.

3. ASSOCIATIONS
The game requires 3-10 people.
One person goes out, and the rest think of some word or concept from the Bible, for example, the Star of Bethlehem. The guessing player comes in and starts asking everyone in turn questions that can only be answered with “yes” or “no.”
For example:
. is it alive?
. is it wooden?
. is this edible?
. did Jesus have this?
. can we have (see) this now?
When the guessing player finally guesses the word,
then the next person to guess is the one who was last asked the question.

4. TEST "ABOUT YOURSELF"
themed game
Invite everyone present (5-35 people) to write 5-10 nouns that they can attribute to themselves. For example: man, woman, student, etc.
After everyone has written, ask who wrote
. about himself that he is a man
. about your family affiliation (wife, mother, father, etc.)
. about your affiliation with the profession (doctor, student)
. about his attitude towards the church and ministry
And who wrote that he is a sinner? Most people will probably forget about this.
CONCLUSION: You think well of yourself. There are few sinners among you. But the Bible says that Christ came to save sinners. Where will you be?

5. CANDY UNDER THE CHAIR
Game theme: how to hear the voice of God
One person is sitting on a chair, blindfolded. There is candy secured under the chair (you can use tape). Three volunteers located at different ends of the room are trying to get to the person sitting and take candy from him. The person sitting tries to stop them by saying “STOP” and pointing in the direction where, in his opinion, the noise is coming from. If he showed correctly, the caught player remains in place, the rest continue their dangerous journey.

6. BLIND BARTIMEAUS
For the introduction to the lesson about blind Bartimaeus.
One volunteer is blindfolded, having previously found out whether he orients himself well in the room. Place the object in a hard-to-reach place, untwist the person in the bandage and send for the object.

7. BEAUTIFUL LEGS...
For an introduction to the topic: “Rom. 10:15 (And how can they preach unless they are sent? As it is written, How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news of peace, who bring good news!)
Find the largest foot in the group... the smallest... the most original... and talk about Romans 10:15

8. VERSE IN GESTURES
The game is very simple. Its main advantage is that it helps you learn Bible verses in a fun way. The game is good to play in a home group. From 3 to 15 people can participate.
Each person (or a team of several people, if there are many of you) receives a piece of paper with a verse written on it. After some time, the players take turns showing their verse in gestures (they come up with gestures themselves), and the verse must be spoken out loud. You can also explain how to understand this verse and why certain gestures were invented. You can also give the same verse to two teams. Their performances are compared and judged whose is better.
As an example, I’ll give you how you can use gestures to show the verse “For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, so that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16)

Because I loved you so much - two fist blows in the area of ​​the heart (when we are in love, our heart beats often)
God - hand points to the sky
world - palm open, show around you
what I gave - we tear it off with both hands, as if something was being removed from my chest
His Son - the hand seems to touch the head of a small child
so that everyone - point with the index finger at one, second, third person
believer - fold our palms as if for prayer
into Him - again we point to the sky,
did not die - first we show the index finger as “impossible”, then we show death - arms crossed on the chest
but had life - we feel the pulse (there is a pulse - that means the person is alive)
eternal - a symbol of eternity - a closed circle, with our hand we draw a circle in the air.
.Be sure to recite the scripture from which the verse is taken. It is best to select poems that are easy to show. I suggest the following:
. For I want mercy, not sacrifice, and knowledge of God more than burnt offerings. (Hosea 6:6)
. In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. (Genesis 1:1)
. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Rom 6:23)
. Better is a piece of dry bread, and with it peace, than a house full of slaughtered cattle, with discord. (Proverbs 17:1)
. So, if you have been raised with Christ, then seek the things that are above, where Christ sits at the right hand of God; Set your mind on things above, and not on earthly things. (Col. 3:1-2)
. Behold, I stand at the door and knock: if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. (Rev. 3:20)
. God is light, and in Him there is no darkness. (1 John 1:5)
. For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead (James 2:26)
. Go therefore and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. (Matt. 28:19)
With good training you can make the game more difficult. Let someone show a verse (only a well-known one), and others guess.

9. SOUND STORY
This game is good for youth and children who already know the basic Bible stories. 2-4 teams of 3-10 people each play. Each team is given the task of depicting the Bible story in sounds. The other teams must listen (everyone close their eyes!) and guess what the story is. I propose to represent the following with sounds:
. How the animals enter the ark
. Fall of the Walls of Jericho
. Parable of the Lost Sheep
. Construction of the Tower of Babel

10. THE WORD OVERSEAS
The presenter quickly names the words. Children must rearrange the letters of this word in their minds backwards and immediately write them down on the board with chalk or on a piece of paper “back to front.” For example, the presenter says the word “pilot”, the child writes the word “tolip”, “salamander” - “ardnamalas”. You can start with short words and replace them with longer ones. Biblical terms and words may be used.

11. BIBLE DICTIONARY
The players are divided into two teams; you can also choose a judge to resolve controversial issues. A letter of the alphabet is selected at random, excluding b, ы, b; for this you can take the first book you come across and the letter located in a pre-agreed place on the line with the agreed number on the agreed page. During the game, the teams simply call words from Scripture in turn starting with the chosen letter. It is impossible to repeat, words must be common nouns in the initial form - nominative case, singular, and well-known enough for their existence to be undeniable. It doesn’t matter which team member says the word

12. BIBLE PICTURES
Cards are written, on one side they have a word written, and on the other, how many points are given for this word. One person from two teams each comes out, chooses a word and draws, whose team guesses what the word is faster, and these points are recorded. The words can be written biblical. For example (for children):
. The ark
. Altar
. Rainbow
. Flood
. Tree of the knowledge of good and evil
. Bible
. Sin

13. HIDDEN WORDS
The players are divided into 2-5 teams of 2-7 people each. The teams are given pieces of paper (download HERE) On these pieces of paper there is a large table with many letters. You need to find hidden words (these will be Biblical names). Words can be written horizontally (from right to left and left to right), vertically (from top to bottom and bottom to top), and also diagonally. Whoever finds 10 hidden words faster wins.

On this page you will find biblical riddles for children and adults, both simple and complex biblical questions, as well as interesting biblical logic puzzles. Play Bible games, riddle and solve the proposed puzzles with your friends.

132. The riddle only works in English:
Can you find thirty (30) books of the Bible in this paragraph? Actually, there are 31 if you can find the variant of one Old Testament prophet’s name.
There are 30 books of the Bible in this paragraph. Can you find them? This is a most remarkable puzzle. It was found by a gentleman in an airplane seat pocket, on a flight from Los Angeles to Honolulu, keeping him occupied for hours. He enjoyed it so much, he passed it on to some friends. One friend from Illinois worked on this while fishing from his john boat. Another friend studied it while playing his banjo. Elaine Taylor, a columnist friend, was so intrigued by it she mentioned it in her weekly newspaper column. Another friend judges the job of solving this puzzle so involving, she brews a cup of tea to help her nerves. There will be some names that are really easy to spot. That's a fact. Some people, however, will soon find themselves in a jam, especially since the book names are not necessarily capitalized. Truthfully, from answers we get, we are forced to admit it usually takes a minister or a scholar to see some of them at the worst. Research has shown that something in our genes is responsible for the difficulty we have in seeing the books in this paragraph. During a recent fund raising event, which featured this puzzle, the Alpha Delta Phi lemonade booth set a new record. The local paper, The Chronicle, surveyed over 200 patrons who reported that this puzzle was one of the most difficult they had ever seen. As Daniel Humana humbly puts it, “The books are all right here in plain view hidden from sight.” Those able to find all of them will hear great lamentations from those who have to be shown. One revelation that may help is that books like Timothy and Samuel may occur without their numbers. Also, keep in mind, that punctuation and spaces in the middle are normal. A chipper attitude will help you compete really well against those who claim to know the answers. Remember, there is no need for a mad exodus; there really are 30 books of the Bible lurking somewhere in this paragraph waiting to be found.

I propose a second version of the game “All Scripture” - it contains a more complex description of the books. This is for those who found it too easy. I hope you enjoyed remembering different facts about biblical books in this playful way.

The game cards are also useful for remembering the order of the written books of the Bible. My older children had a period when they already read and knew the books of the Bible, but they couldn’t find them quickly at a meeting - such cards really helped us out. In a game form, everything is remembered faster.

The game consists of 66 cards. Each card is double-sided. First side contains: title, drawing and indications of who, where and when wrote this book. Second side – description of the contents and features of the book. Both sides are playable, with them you can perform different types of tasks, which are described in the rules of the game.

Rules of the game:

Arrange the shuffled cards description side up. Participants in the game take turns taking one card, reading aloud and guessing the name of the book.

If a player finds it difficult to answer, then the next clockwise the player has the right to give mine Possible answer. The card is turned over and the winning point goes to the player who gives correct answer. Regardless of the correct answer, the player can only take one card.

When all the cards have been guessed and turned over book titles , then everyone together should decompose them into groups:

1. Books of Moses(6)
2. Entry of the Israelites into the Promised Land (3)
3. Times of the Kings of Israel (6)
4. Return of Jews from captivity(3)
5. Poetic books and collections of wise sayings(4)
6. Prophets(16)
7. Narrative of the Life and Ministry of Christ (4)
8. Formation and growth of the Christian congregation (1)
9. Letters of the Apostle Paul (14)
10. Books of other apostles and disciples of Christ(7)

How to make:

Need to print on in color printer:

1) Cards in PDF format

a) title and drawing

b) description

2) Game rules and box in PDF format

Print. On cards with a description, there are hint fields on the side - they will need to be removed after gluing them together. Otherwise, even before the game starts, you will be looking for which book matches which description. Trim the white margins around the cards and glue them together. It is better to cut using a stationery knife along a ruler. Dry under a press (in the pages of a thick large book) and then cut into cards.

The game rules and stickers on the box are easy to print. Scheme and manufacturing process boxes written . Place labels on the top and sides of the box so that it can be easily found in the future.

FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY.

Ball in a basket
Place the basket in the middle of the room; Place 4 balls at one end of the room. Each player is given the opportunity to see how long it takes them to get all 4 balls across the room into a basket - using only their feet. Record each participant's time to determine the winner. Or count the number of hits it took for each player to get the balls into the basket. Or make the game a competition where each player only dribbles one ball.

Walking with peas
Select a few peas in advance so that they can be easily held at the end of the straw by sucking in air. Then divide into 2 or more teams of equal numbers. Give each person a straw and give the first person a pea, which they will attach to the end of the straw, holding it there without using their hands. At the signal, he turns and passes the pea to the next member of his team, who must take it by sucking air through his straw without touching it with his hands. If the pea falls, it must be placed again on the straw of the person who last held it. This continues until the pea reaches the end of the line. After which the last person in the line runs to the beginning. And so on until the last person in the line is the last again.
Blindfold throw
Give each competitor 10 potatoes and place them at a distance of 2.5-3 m from a bucket, box or basket. Let him take a couple practice shots. Then, blindfold him, and then have him try to throw as many potatoes into the box as possible.

Rip off your hat
Two guys can compete, or two teams can compete. A circle is drawn. Players enter the circle, each of them has his left arm tied to his body and a hat on his head.
The task is simple and difficult - to take off the enemy’s hat and not allow him to take off his own. For each cap removed, the team receives a point.

What's there behind you?
Clear pictures (drawings) and paper
circles with numbers, for example: 96, 105, etc. Players converge in a circle, stand on one leg, tuck the other under the knee and hold it with their hand. The task is to stand, jump on one leg, look behind the opponent’s back, see the number and see what is drawn in the picture. The one who first “deciphers” the enemy wins.

Hook for the ball
Place the hoop on the ground. Inside the hoop is a volleyball with a loop or ring. Two players stand opposite each other and, each taking a stick with a hook, try to pick up the ball by the ring and take it out of the hoop, while simultaneously preventing the opponent from doing this. Whoever gets the ball away first wins.

Dashing drivers
Children's cars are equipped with glasses and small buckets of water filled to the brim. Twine of the same length (10-15 meters) is tied to the cars. On command, you must quickly wind the string around the stick, pulling the machine towards you. If the water splashes, the presenter loudly calls the “driver’s” number, and he stops winding the string for a second. The winner is the one who pulled the car up the fastest without spilling the water. He is the one who receives the prize. You can play without water, just lengthen the rope.

Crackers
Two players stand opposite each other at a distance of 0.5 meters, resting their palms, trying to force each other to take a step.

Pass by, don't touch me
On level ground, at a distance of a step from each other, 8-10 towns are placed on the same line (or pins). The two teams playing stand in front of the first town, they are blindfolded and asked to go back and forth between the towns. The one who knocks down the fewest towns wins. This person's team can help him. It’s also a lot of fun if all the obstacles are quietly removed.

Who is stronger?
Get a strong, thick rope 6 meters long. Tie the ends with a strong knot. You will end up with a large rope ring. Two competitors, being inside the rope ring, stretch it in different directions, placing the rope under their shoulder blades and grabbing it with both hands. A line is drawn between them. At the signal, both, backing away, try to pull each other over the line.

Broom racing
Running on a broomstick (zigzag) past 10 towns placed at a distance of 2-3 meters from one another. The winner is the one who runs through all the towns faster without knocking over a single one.

To the touch
8-10 small items are placed in a dark bag made of material: scissors, a fountain pen, a bottle cap, a meat grinder knife, a spool of thread, a thimble, a button, a spoon, etc. You need to feel through the fabric of the bag to guess what is in it. The bag fabric may be rough. The one who guesses all the items receives a prize. This game can be offered to team captains by first preparing two identical bags of things.

Get out the boxes
Another game for captains. Sit on a stool, cross your legs and, without touching the floor with your feet and hands, reach with your teeth the box of matches that is standing “on your butt” at one of the back legs of the stool. You can spin on a stool as you please. The audience will have some fun!

Who is faster
Place 2 chairs with their backs facing each other at a distance of approximately 2 meters. There is a rope stretched under the chairs, its ends are located between the feet of the children sitting on the chair. A bag of nuts (sweets, cookies, seeds) is tied in the middle of the rope. At the command of the presenter, those sitting on the chair must jump up, run around the chairs, sit on their own and, grabbing the rope, pull the prize towards themselves, which goes to the one who can do it first.

Without leaving the edge
A thick board is placed on its edge and secured in this position with pegs knocked into the ground near it. On one side of the board, five identical objects (for example, pencils) are placed on the ground, and on the other side are five erasers. The player must, walking along the edge of the board and without leaving it, shift all the objects lying on the left to the right side, and those lying on the right to the left side. If you fail, you need to start over and try again one more time, then give way to the next player on your team.

Defeat three
Two ropes of 2.5-3 meters, identical in size and thickness, are tied in the middle so that four identical ends are obtained. Four guys compete, each takes his own end of the rope, pulls it, it turns out to be a “cross”. About two meters from each player, a prize (toy, bag of nuts, candy, etc.) is placed on the floor (ground). On command, participants pull on their end of the rope, trying to be the first to grab the prize.
Fishermen
For this game you need to have three fishing rods 3 meters long. A wire ring with an internal hole of 25 millimeters is attached to the fishing rods on the fishing line. At a distance of 2 meters from the “shore” several bottles (skittles) are placed on the ground. Three players are invited. In the shortest possible time, you need to put a ring on the neck of the bottle and “hook” it, that is, knock it down. The winner is the one who knocks down the most pins or bottles in the shortest time. You can hang a large nail on the fishing line. Then you need to lower the nail into the neck of the bottle.

Relay race with toothpicks
Divide people into 2 or more teams with an equal number of players. Let each team form a separate line. Each participant is given a toothpick, which he takes in his teeth. The first member of each team is given a ring to put on a toothpick. On a signal, the first person turns and tries to put the ring on the toothpick of the person behind him. Do not touch the ring with your hands, except if it falls on the floor. Then whoever held it last must pick it up, hang it on their toothpick, and try again to pass it to the next player. This continues until the ring reaches the end of the line. If you want, especially if you don't have a lot of people on your teams, you can have the ring go all the way to the end of the line and go back to the first player again.
Walking alphabet
Divide people into 2 or more teams and give each person on each team a letter of the alphabet. Give each team the same set of letters that you have selected so that there are enough of them to form the word that will be the answer to the question you asked. You are asking a biblical question that can be answered in one word. Then each team gathers in a group, determines the answer, then sends forward those team members whose letters make up this answer. They should be in the right order. The first team to get the answer correct wins one point. You can add variety by asking teams to write answers that contain more than one word. Then the participants will have to run back and forth to form each word - only one word can be formed at a time, and always in the correct order.

Dubinushka
Participants sit in a circle. Everyone chooses the name of a fruit, an animal, or just a number... In the middle stands the presenter with a rolled-up newspaper. Players play as follows: call themselves - the name of a stranger. Example: lion-tiger, tiger-hedgehog, hedgehog-bear... Let's say, if the “bear” forgot and the leader managed to hit him on the head, the leader changes places with the “bear”. A very funny game, especially when they call someone who has a long name, like “orangutan”...

Monkey King
The number of players is not limited. Everyone sits in a circle, and the monkey king is chosen from the players. All players must repeat all the movements of the chosen king! After the king has been elected, a previously selected person is introduced into the room; his task is to understand who the participants in the game are following!

Schools of fish
Players are divided into 2-3 equal teams, and each player receives a paper fish (length 22-25 centimeters, width 6-7 centimeters), tied on a thread with the tail down (thread length 1-1.2 meters). The guys fasten the end of the thread to the back of their belt so that the tail of the fish freely touches the floor. Each team has different colored fish. At the leader’s signal, the players, running after each other, try to step on the tail of the “opponent’s” fish with their feet. Touching the threads and fish with your hands is not allowed. The player whose fish was picked leaves the game.
The team with the most fish left wins. It's really fun to use balloons instead of fish, you have to pop them.

Spider
Draw two circles on the starting line. Divide the guys equally into two groups, 15-20 people each, and place each group in a circle. Now tie both groups with ropes, you get two “spiders”. On the command “march!” both “spiders” begin to race to the finish line, where two other circles are drawn in which they must stand. “Spiders” stumble, do not run, but barely crawl; all players must be either completely barefoot or all wearing boots.

centipedes
The players are divided into two or three teams of 10-20 people and line up behind each other. Each team receives a thick rope (rope), which all players grab with their right or left hand, evenly distributed on both sides of the rope. Then each of the participants in the attraction, depending on which side of the rope he is standing on, grabs the ankle of his right or left leg with his right or left hand. At the leader’s signal, the centipedes jump forward 10-12 meters, holding on to the rope, then turn around and jump back. You can just run on two legs, but then the guys should be placed very close to each other. Victory is awarded to the team that was the first to reach the finish line, provided that none of its participants became unhooked from the rope while running or jumping.

Salute!
Place the team players in a row. This game is a relay race. After the first player completes the task correctly, the next player can complete it. The task is as follows: take your nose with your right hand, pass your left hand through the resulting loop, stretch it forward with your thumb sticking out, while saying: “Wow!” Then clap your hands and do the same, but quickly changing hands.

Water Carrier Relay
Several teams of 5 people each can participate in the competition. The team should have a small children's bucket, and if they don't have it, then a tin can with a wire handle. The volume of the buckets must be the same, otherwise it will not be possible to determine the winner. The attraction can be carried out on a platform whose length is 15-20 meters. Teams line up at the start. At the finish line there is a flag against each team. Those who stand first receive a bucket filled with water. At the signal of the judge chosen by the guys, the first numbers run to the flags, go around them and return to the starting line. The goal of the game is to run to the flag and back as quickly as possible, pass the bucket to a teammate without spilling the water. The team that spends less time and saves more water wins.

Cheerful cooks
For this attraction you will need two chef's hats, two jackets or two white coats, and two aprons. Items are laid out on stools located on the starting line, a bowl filled with water is placed on opposite stools, a tablespoon is placed, and an empty bottle is placed. The competition participants are divided into two teams. They line up at the starting line. At the presenter’s signal, the first numbers run up to the stool, put on a cap, jacket and apron and run to the opposite stools. Then they take spoons, scoop water from the bowl once and pour it into a bottle, after which they return to their team and undress, handing the second number an apron and cap. He quickly gets dressed and performs the same task, etc. The team that fills the bottle the fastest wins.

One-legged football players
The players keep both feet together at all times; the feet of the players can be tied; the ball is kicked with both feet at once. The court has been reduced to the size of a volleyball court; it is best to play on the sand. Each team has 5-7 players: a goalkeeper, 2-3 defenders, 2-3 forwards. Since the players move only by jumping, the half lasts 5 minutes, the break between halves is 3 minutes. More than three halves should not be played. The ball for the game is a medicine ball (a medicine ball weighing 1 kilogram). The rules are the same as for football.

Unusual volleyball
The rules of the game are the same as in volleyball. But the usual net is replaced by a solid cloth, through which the players of the other team cannot be seen. Playing blindly leads to fun surprises. The second version of this game is with a regular net, but instead of a volleyball they play with a children's balloon inflated with air; the second option is only possible in calm weather.

Water carriers
Two parallel lines are drawn with chalk in a room at a distance of 10 meters from one another (or on the ground). Several guys get down on all fours at one of the features, and plastic bowls half filled with water are placed on their backs. They must quickly cross the other line on all fours, turn back and return to the start. Those who arrived first receive two points, and those who did not spill water at all receive three more. You should compete in the warm season or in a warm room.

Who will “sew” it faster?
Two teams of guys must quickly “seam” all team members to each other. Instead of a needle, a teaspoon is used, to which a thread or twine is tied. You can “sew” it through a strap, a strap, a loop on your trousers, in a word, through something that will not offend your partner’s dignity.

paper arrow
To play, you need a paper arrow like a dove, which any schoolchild can make. It is better to play in calm weather. The guys are divided into two equal teams. A straight line is drawn on the ground, onto which the first player throws the arrow stands. From the place where the arrow fell, the player of the second team throws in the opposite direction. And again, from this place where the arrow fell, the player of the first team throws it again in the opposite direction. So, one after another, players from different teams throw the arrow with all their might in two opposite directions. The team from whose side the last arrow falls will win.
