A faith-based software company is introducing a new PC game to churches offering Vacation Bible School programs that aims to help kids master Bible knowledge.
Third Day Games, a software company based in Huntsville, Ala., created Bible Champions – a computer game that provides participating children with a new game each month or 12 Bible mastery games that they can play using their home PC.
Bible Champions was developed to use kids’ love of video games to connect them with God’s Word on a daily basis.

“We think Bible Champions presents a revolutionary opportunity for churches to connect kids to God’s Word at home,” said Bobby Wells, CEO of Third Day Games in a statement Tuesday.
The game uses popular Bible stories from the Old and New Testaments and creates a 3D environment that pulls kids actively into the story. Stories include God’s creation, Joseph and His Brothers, Daniel in the Lion’s Den, and the Birth of Jesus.
Players solve puzzles and avoid adversaries as they explore the location and events of a particular story. For example, they might bring sick people to Jesus to be healed or help Zacchaeus pay back those he cheated.
“We’ve put together 12 Bible stories that are sequenced to follow the seasons of the Christian calendar,” explained Wells. “And we provide churches with the software that unlocks a new story each month. They can then give the software to ALL the children in their ministry programs so kids can play each story over and over, while anticipating a new story for the upcoming month.”
