"One of the things I like to say is that the only thing stopping you is you." –Susie Sherwin

In this episode of the Teacher Edition podcast, host Jenny Copeland enjoys a conversation with longtime friend and Bible Quiz expert Susie Sherwin. With Bible Quizzing being a treasured memory from her own schooling, Jenny invites Susie to share this unique discipline which can positively impact students and facilitate a deep biblical engagement across different age groups. Susie shares the history, rules, and personal stories of how Bible Quizzing influenced her life and how she is helping integrate it into schools today.  

Jenny and Susie discuss:

“Our quizzers need those tournaments. If you think about a soccer season, you have at least one, sometimes two games a week…so with Bible Quizzing, we want to do the same thing, where we have those shorter-term, working on drills.” — Susie Sherwin

Susie’s passion for Bible Quizzing is contagious, and her commitment to spiritual education is nothing short of inspiring. She offers practical strategies to help provide educators and administrators with the tools to implement or reinvigorate a Bible Quizzing program in Christian schools. Remember, as educators, the most powerful tool we pass on to our students is not just knowledge but wisdom grounded in Scripture.  

Every day in the classroom is your day to impact and inspire through God's power and also through his grace working in you. Go do what God has called you to do. 

“I'm definitely thankful for the impact Bible Quizzing has had on my life.” –Susie Sherwin
