On a recent members exclusive Theology Thursday segment of the Michael Knowles Show on DailyWire+, Dr. Jeremiah J. Johnston, PhD brought his scholarly expertise—and competitive spirit—to an entertaining Bible trivia showdown with host Michael Knowles. What unfolded was a delightful reminder that studying Scripture doesn't have to be stuffy.
The Ultimate Bible Challenge
Questions ranged from straightforward to tricky: Moses' age at death? 120. Shortest Bible verse? "Jesus wept" (John 11:35). The exchange featured friendly banter and competitive energy that made biblical knowledge approachable. Michael playfully protested when stumped, while Jeremiah maintained scholarly authority with humor. Surprise victories, friendly disputes, and lighthearted teasing about obscure details showed that deep biblical literacy and fun aren't mutually exclusive.
Deep Knowledge, Playful Delivery
What makes this exchange so valuable is how it demonstrates that serious biblical scholarship can be accessible and enjoyable. When discussing the 613 commandments in the Torah, Jeremiah seamlessly wove in the historical context of Jesus being tested by religious leaders. This is apologetics at its best—rigorous yet relatable.
How well do you know your Bible? Could you name Noah's three sons or identify which prophet's name means "salvation"?
Discovering Peace in God's Word
This playful approach to Scripture reflects Jeremiah's deeper mission. His new Peace of God Bible represents four years of studying the word "shalom," tracing all 651 occurrences of peace throughout Scripture. It's designed to help every believer—not just "Delta Force Christians"—walk in God's peace through daily devotionals and study notes.
