This is a Bible Skills game kids love to play! It’s an excellent way to learn the books of the New Testament. You’ll also want to check out these other fun games: “Don’t Break the New Testament Ice” and “Minor Prophet Mini Muffin Scramble.”
The New Testament Pyramid
Gather and Prepare:
- 27 plastic disposable drinking cups (two sets in different colors)
- Permanent Marker
- Print on separate drinking cups the books of the New Testament (two sets)

- Play as many times as time allows. The kids won’t get tired of playing!

Bill, we’re on same wavelength. I just bought 2 sets of plastic cups at $ Tree one for OT one for NT. Game we’ll do will just put in order with cups inside each other. Had a field day buying things at $ Store for bunch of Bible games for 3rd grade SS. Tons of ideas online! Janice, FBC Joelton TN
