Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What organization, founded in 1898, is famous for placing Bibles in hotel rooms?

Answer: Gideons International

Just so you know: The Promise Keepers are a group of husbands and fathers. The Red Cross is a disaster relief organization. The Bible Placers, as far as I know, don't exist. I made that one up.

2. What Old Testament character's name means 'laughter'?

Answer: Isaac

"and Sarah said, 'God has made me laugh, and all who hear shall laugh with me'" (Genesis 21:6) She was talking about naming her son 'laughter', because when God told her she was going to have a child she laughed because she was so old she considered it impossible.

You might see the name Mary quite a bit. For example, in addition to the Martha's sister, there's Mary mother of Jesus and Mary Magdalene.
