How to run this board

Youth group trivia works best when it is not a Sunday school test. This board mixes two Bible columns - heroes of the Bible and famous Bible stories - with food, movies and TV, school life, and a column of weird but true facts, so every student has a way in.

Teenagers already have their phones out, so buzzing in from them is a natural fit. Put the board on the youth room screen and split into teams by grade or by small group.

Leader tip: keep a few candy prizes for the Weird But True column, and let the team that wins Final Jeopardy choose next week's game. Small stakes keep it competitive without anyone taking it too seriously.
