How well do you know the Bible? The quickest honest way to find out is to answer a few questions and see where you land. Our Bible Knowledge Quiz takes about five minutes: ten questions across the big story of Scripture, the Old and New Testaments, the people and places, and the core truths of the faith. You will see where you are strong, where you can grow, and a reading plan or course to help with your next step. No sign-in is needed to take it.

What the Quiz Covers
You can take a sampling of the whole Bible, or focus on one area:
- Everything: a mix of questions from every area.
- Bible content: the story, people and places.
- Old Testament: creation, the patriarchs, the law, the kings and the prophets.
- New Testament: Jesus, the early church and the letters.
- People and characters: the men and women God worked through.
- Places and setting: where the events of Scripture happened.
- Theology: the gospel and the core truths of the faith.
- Verses in context: what well-known verses really mean in their setting.
There are three levels, from beginner to advanced, so you can start with the basics or stretch yourself.
What Your Results Show
At the end you get a simple picture of how you did in each area, not just a single score. You will see the areas where you are strong and the one or two where a little more time in the Word would help. Based on those results, the quiz points you to a specific reading plan or course. Fuzzy on the Old Testament? You will get a plan that walks through it. Did well across the board? You will get ideas for going deeper.

Take It With Friends or Your Small Group
Knowing the Bible was never meant to be a solo project. You can start a game with friends, family or your small group. One person creates a room and shares a short code, and everyone joins with their own name and an emoji. A live leaderboard updates as people finish, which makes it an easy way to open a conversation about Scripture together.
A Word About Knowledge
Scripture reminds us that "knowledge puffs up, but love builds up" (1 Corinthians 8:1). This quiz is not about scoring points or looking impressive. The goal is to know the God who reveals himself in the Bible, and Scripture is given so that we may be "complete, equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:17). Every strong area is a gift to thank God for. Every growth area is an invitation, not a failure.
Frequently Asked Questions
How well does the average Christian know the Bible?
Many churchgoing Christians find they know the famous stories well but are less sure about how the whole Bible fits together, the Old Testament in particular, or what well-known verses mean in context. That is normal, and it is exactly where a little steady reading makes the biggest difference.
How long does the Bible quiz take?
About five minutes. Each quiz is ten multiple-choice questions, and you see your results as soon as you finish.
Do I need an account to take the quiz?
No. Anyone can take it without signing in. If you have an account and are signed in, your results are saved so you can compare them over time.
What if I do not score well?
There is no passing or failing. A lower score simply shows where to start, and the quiz suggests a reading plan or course for exactly that area.
Can I use the quiz with my small group or youth group?
Yes. Choose Play with friends to create a room, share the short code, and everyone plays at the same time on their own phone with a live leaderboard.
