Discovery Journal
Using the Discovery Journal, the Summer Study launches the participants on a journey through the Scriptures asking questions designed to help them discover the eternal truths found in the Bible.
At the conclusion of the Summer Study, participants may take the National Bible Bee Qualifying Test. This test allows them to be ranked nationally among other Summer Study participants. If they score within the top 120 of their age division and have met all the other requirements, they will be invited to be a contestant at the National Bible Bee Competition (NBBC).
The Discovery Journal is available with 2019 Summer Study participant/host registration. All competition level registration packages include a PDF version. Other registration packages include hard copies of the Discovery Journal as well as other Summer Study materials.

“The Summer Study has helped me to understand more about God than I ever thought I would. Through it I have watched my relationship with God and others grow, and it has given me study methods I can use in a lifelong journey of studying God’s Word.”
Ethan Carlson, Senior NBB Semi-finalist
