    This effect should be done with adult volunteers getting the difficult questions and the children getting the easy questions.

    Plan ahead:
    For this effect you will need to prepare a list of 20 Bible questions, (10 easy and 10 very difficult.) On small slips of paper, write numbers 1 through 20. Place the 10 numbers that correspond with the 10 easy question in one side of a clear force bag and the other 10 which correspond with the 10 difficult questions in the other side.

    Presentation:
    Choose 3 women and 3 men. Explain that you have always heard that women remember much more of the Bible than men do. To prove it, you are going to play a game. Have the players choose the number for their question by reaching into the change bag. Be sure you know which side of the change bag or clear force bag has the easy numbers for the ladies team. This routine will get lots of laughs! Here are some sample questions.

    Difficult:

    What three nations began in Genesis chapter 10 & 11? (Assyrians, Chaldeans, Canaanites)
    What is the first color mentioned in the Bible? (Green–Genesis 1:30)
    What is the only book to mention God laughing? (Psalms)
    Who was the first man in the Bible mentioned as having more than one wife? (Lamech–Genesis 4:19)

    Easy:

    Who was thrown into a den of lions? (Daniel)
    Who was the famous eater of locust? (John the Baptist)
    Who was Adam’s wife? (Eve)
    What is the first book of the Bible? (Genesis)
