National Bible Bee Competition 2017

The National Bible Bee Competition 2017 sought what it means to be “Created” through the book of Colossians. NBBC 2017 focused on the wonders of creation and the glory of God. The NBBC was held at the JW Marriott in San Antonio, TX on November 15–19, 2017.

For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created through Him and for Him.

Colossians 1:16 NASB
