Welcome
Welcome to the CI 2015 website!
The 19th Annual Colorado Invitational Bible Quiz Tournament will be held Friday night and Saturday, February 13th & 14th at Woodside Baptist Church in Denver, Colorado.
The CI 2015 presents a great opportunity for your team to compete with other top-level Bible quiz teams from around the country. Aside from the competition, the CI is also a great opportunity for healthy Christian Fellowship with other teens, coaches, parents, and supporters that love God and His Word. We believe that this tournament will be a challenge and encouragement for all teams that attend.
The theme for the CI 2015 is “Then they worshipped Him” and is taken from Matthew 14:33. The verse says, “Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.” This verse is taken from the passage where Jesus has just walked on the water. Jesus has just displayed his power over creation, and His disciples are in awe! After being challenged to have deeper faith, the disciples respond properly by showing Jesus accurate worship. What about us? We have been studying the gospel of Matthew, but are we responding accurately to its message? Are we responding in accurate faith and worship? Our response to this wonderful gospel should be to have active faith and give Jesus Christ accurate “worth-ship.” May we learn and grow in our faith in Christ, and respond by living lives of accurate worship.
The schedule and format for the CI 2015 will be almost identical to the CI 2014. The tournament will start with six preliminary rounds on Friday night, resume with two preliminary rounds on Saturday morning, then culminate with the double elimination rounds when the preliminary rounds are finished on Saturday. There will be two divisions: the Elite Division and Division II. The Elite Division will be for varsity level quizzers/teams that have previous quizzing experience and are prepared for National-level quizzing. The 2nd Division will be for less experienced Sr. High Quizzers, any Jr. High or JV teams, and even for more experienced elementary quizzers. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions about what division you/your team should join.
If your Colorado stay permits, we would also love to have you stick around and go skiing with us on Monday, the 16th (President’s Day)! Ski information (lift ticket cost, rental options, etc) are posted under the “Ski Day” button above.
We hope this website will help you & and your team as you prepare to come to Colorado. Do not hesitate to follow the links to the past CI websites for pictures, place winners, etc. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us (email is probably the best way).
In Christ,
Pastor Jono Scott
