Summer Study Host Group
A host group is a group of registered participants who meet locally to study Scripture and encourage each other during the Summer Study. Each group has a leader, called a host, who facilitates local meetings for registered participants to practice memory verses, play games, and have community with like-minded friends. Participants may choose a host group during registration.
Online Community
The online community is a private social platform where registered participants and their parents can exchange study tips, share encouragement, and connect with other families.

Become a host
A host is someone with a passion for encouraging others to study and memorize God’s Word. They are leaders in their community and eager to see the impact of Scripture in their hometown. A host partners with the National Bible Bee in its vision to “Know God’s Word and Make Him Known” in their local community.
