Have A Little Fun

***UPDATE***

Thank you Rachel and Sheryl for being such good sports. Answers are below.

I once made a remark about the hidden books of the Bible. It was a lulu. Kept people looking so hard for facts and for others that it was a revelation. Some were in a jam, especially since the names of the books were not capitalized but the truth finally struck home to numbers of readers. To others it was a real job. We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you. Yes, there will be some really easy ones to spot. Others may require judges to help them. I will quickly admit it usually takes a minister to find one of them, and there will be loud lamentations when it is found. A little lady says she brews a cup of tea so she can concentrate better. See how well you can compete. Relax now, for there really are sixteen names of the Bible in 12 this story.

I was looking for some nice print out bible lessons for my 8 year old. During my search, I came across a site with bible lessons and one of which is listed below. I love a challenge and I immediately started looking for 16 books before I hand it over to my child. I can name the books of the Bible except I might miss a few of the 12 minor prophets. I thought it'd be an easy task but wasn't. It might be for you. Go ahead - have a little fun.


CAN YOU FIND 16 BOOKS OF THE BIBLE?


Directions: Find and circle the names of 16 books of the Bible hidden in the story.

    You are way ahead. I didn't get that many at first. I was looking for the obvious.

    I guess Rachel and I are having a little competition here. Okay I am up to 15 and I think I may have to cheat and find the answer somewhere. Would you post this on the forum sometime? It's great! Hope you're having a good day.
