Kerygma · For small groups

Small group Bible trivia, no setup.

A way for your Bible study, life group, or weekly gathering to spend twenty minutes inside the Word together — with the verse and a short commentary visible the moment anyone answers.

The leader's problem

Small group leaders carry a quiet burden: every week, find a way to make a passage come alive for eight to twelve people of varying biblical literacy. The mature ones know the answer before you finish the question. The newer ones nod along without engaging. Discussion sometimes flies; sometimes it dies. Activities feel forced; pure lecture feels school-like.

How Kerygma fits

Open Multiplayer, host a room. The app generates a five-character code; each member joins from their own phone. Pick the category — say, Paul's Letters — choose Conversant difficulty, and run a fifteen-question round. Everyone sees the same question on their own screen; everyone answers privately; the leaderboard updates in real time.

What makes it work for small groups is the screen that follows every answer: the actual verse from Paul's letter the question came from, with a short commentary tying the passage back. That verse becomes the discussion launchpad. "What did you make of this part?" "How does this connect to what we read last week?" The trivia gets people talking; the verse keeps them on the text.

Suggested formats

  • Opening warm-up — five Acquainted-difficulty questions on last week's category as a quick recap before that night's main study.
  • Mid-meeting break — a fifteen-minute Conversant round on the category your group is working through.
  • Series review night — when you finish a six-week series, run a Profound round on the category you've been studying. The leaderboard becomes a celebration, not a competition.
  • Custom mode — type your group's specific passage or theme, and the app builds the round around it.

What about cost?

Each member needs the app on their phone. The free seven-day trial unlocks every feature. After that, $3.99/month or $29.99/year. There's no per-group pricing or institutional plan — Kerygma sells to individuals.
