Sample questions from this week's game

True or False: The Bible describes Job as 'perfect and upright, and one that feared God, and eschewed evil.'

Job 1:1

Show answer

True — True! Job's story is so powerful precisely because he was a righteous man. His suffering wasn't caused by sin—it was a test of faith. This challenges the false idea that bad things only happen to bad people.

In a single day, you lose your wealth, your livestock, your servants, and all ten of your children. Messenger after messenger brings devastating news. What do you do?

Job 1:20-22

Show answer

Fall to the ground and worship God, saying: 'The Lord gave, and the Lord hath taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord' — Job's response wasn't robotic or emotionless—he tore his robe and shaved his head in grief. But in the depths of his pain, he worshipped. He acknowledged that everything he had was a gift from God, and losing it didn't change who God was. This is faith at its deepest level.
