The Results Are In

The 2009 National Bible Bee Results Are In

On November 4-6, 300 contestants gathered in Washington, D.C. for the first annual National Bible Bee, a motivating Bible memory competition for children and youth from 7 to 18 years of age. Nine contestants emerged as contest winners.

A total of $260,000 in prize money was awarded. Daniel Staddon (Salem, WV) walked away with the top prize, $100,000.

Organizers say that the National Bible Bee is much more than a competition - that at its core, it is all about encouraging young people to memorize the Scriptures so that they may learn, speak, and live out their Christian faith.
