Kerygma · For Bible study groups

Bible study group trivia, anchored in your passage.

Custom-mode rounds built around the exact text your group is working through. Type the reference, set the difficulty, and run a fifteen-question warm-up that puts everyone on the same page — quite literally.

Why ordinary trivia falls flat in Bible study

Most Bible quiz games are random, surface-level, and disconnected from whatever your group is actually studying that night. They're fine as warm-ups for general Bible literacy, but when your group is six weeks deep in Romans or working through Isaiah, generic trivia feels like a tangent.

How Custom mode changes that

Open Custom mode. Type the passage your group is studying — say, "Romans 8" or "Isaiah 53" or "Hebrews 11." Optionally add the theme of your study (Custom mode used to be called Sermon mode, and it works the same way). Pick the difficulty and the question count.

The app generates fresh AI-written questions rooted in those specific verses. Run them as a Multiplayer round at the start of your meeting. Everyone joins the room from their own phone; the room code is five characters; each member sees the same question on their screen at the same time. Right answers open the actual passage with a one-paragraph commentary that ties the question back.

What you get is a five-minute exercise that demonstrates how carefully (or how loosely) the group has read the passage — and surfaces the moments worth talking about.

Suggested formats

• Pre-study warm-up — five questions on the chapter from last week. Quick recall, then move into the new chapter.
• Mid-session check — ten questions on the chapter you've just read together, before discussion. Highlights what people noticed and what they missed.
• Series review — at the end of a long study (Romans, the Gospels, the prophets), a twenty-question Profound round on the matching category. Often becomes its own discussion night.
• Topic survey — when your group does a topical study (prayer, marriage, suffering), use Custom mode with the relevant passages typed in.

Categories that pair well with Custom mode

Even with Custom mode as your primary tool, the standard categories are useful for general literacy nights or when your group rotates leaders:

• Paul's LettersThe Pauline corpus
• Old TestamentGenesis through Malachi
• New TestamentThe 27 books of the NT
• TheologyDoctrine and dogma
• ProphecyThe major and minor prophets
• Church HistoryTwo thousand years
