Books of the Bible

Description
In this icebreaker puzzle, youth will discover 16 books of the bible in a paragraph of text.

Materials
Print out of the text

What to do
Give the text to the students as individuals and groups before a session and reward the person who finds all 16 books first.

Here's the text
In the following story, there are the names of 16 books of the Bible hidden. Can you find them all?

I once made a remark about the hidden books of the Bible. It was a lulu, kept people looking so hard for facts and for others it was a revelation. Some were in a jam, especially since the names of the books were not capitalized, but the truth finally struck home to numbers of readers. To others it was real job. We want it to be a most fascinating few moments for you. Yes, there will be some really easy ones to spot. Others may require judges to help them. I will quickly admit it usually takes a minister to find one of them and there will be loud lamentations when it is found. A little lady says she brews a cup of tea, so she can concentrate better. See how well you can compete. Relax now, for there really are sixteen names of books in the bible in this story. (One preacher found 15 books in 20 minutes but it took him three weeks to find the 16th.)
