_100 Bible trivia questions with answers and Scripture references in three levels: easy, medium and hard. Free for Sunday school, small groups and Bible quizzes._

## Quick answer

Here are 100 Bible trivia questions with answers and Scripture references, in three levels: 35 easy, 36 medium and 29 hard, with the level marked next to each question. They come in two blocks of fifty, each running from easy to hard, so you can use half the list or all of it in Sunday school, a small group, a Bible quiz competition or at home.

A group is almost never even: some people know only the main stories, and others have read the Bible for years. That is why this list mixes all three levels and marks every question, so you can choose which questions to ask each team or save the hard ones for a tiebreaker.

The questions come in two blocks of fifty. Each block starts with easy questions, moves on to medium ones and ends with hard ones, and within each level they follow the order of the Bible. Every answer includes the Scripture reference so your group can look it up.
