YOU MIGHT BE A QUIZZER IF . . .
By Mariah Secrest, Southwest Indiana District |
- You have ever heard or used the pickup line, "Hey, that was a nice multiple you did on that According To."
- You quote along with your pastor as he reads scripture.
- You look at a digital clock and automatically think of the reference that corresponds to the numbers on the face of the clock.
- Your parents get calls of concern from the neighbors who overhear you quoting scripture aloud, day after day.
- All your friends live in different states.
- You consider getting up at seven a.m. on a Saturday morning "sleeping in."
- The contents of your backpack always include homework, books, your Discman, gum, and your Scripture portion.
- You keep your suitcase packed and ready for the weekends.
- You've been in so many church buildings, you could design sanctuaries for a living.
- Your order at a fast-food place begins with, "Okay, multiple: . . ."
- Your screen name has the word "quiz" in it.
- You want to be a quizmaster when you grow up.
- At least half of your wardrobe matches those of your teammates.
- You planned this summer around Q2000.
- You can't remember your homework assignment for the weekend, but you can remember that memory verse you quoted in 29 seconds to win the invitational for your team two years ago.
- All the t-shirts you own have either the name of your district or of a Nazarene college printed on them.
- On dates, the two of you practice memory verses back and forth.
- Actually, you don't go on dates -all your relationships are long-distance.
- And finally, the most obvious sign that you might be a quizzer: You have taken advantage of a wonderful opportunity to learn the Bible, grow closer to the Lord, meet other teens like yourself, travel, build your mind, set goals, and meet ambitions.
