Bible Drill

The purpose of Mississippi Student Bible Drill is to challenge students to develop skills
in using their Bible. Working together to prepare for the drill students increase their
love for the Bible, and its words and phrases become a part of them.

QUOTAT ION DRILL

References are taken from the verses in this
leaflet or on this year’s verse card. The caller
