The American Bible Challenge bowed Thursday on GSN, pitting three teams against each other. It may look like a typical game, but at the end of the night, it really isn't. The winners forward their winnings to a favorite charity, such as a Christian organization like Samaritan's Purse. Actor-comedian Jeff Foxworthy cut his teeth as a game show host with Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?, the rerun rights of which are partially held by GSN, which airs it in a marathon block on Sundays at last check.
Edit, 5/29/26: Had to change the video. Here, Jeff does a promo interview for Season 3.
Actual episode footage, at least what's already been aired, isn't available on YouTube just yet. What I can tell you, though, is that you're in for a rollicking good ol' time. There's an 8-voice choir putting a fresh, up-tempo spin on gospel standards leading in and out of commercial breaks, and if that doesn't keep you from changing channels during commercials, I don't know what does.
Seeing some of the topic titles appear on the screen on the opener, I wondered if they hired some of the writers for Win Ben Stein's Money, because the puns were that bad.......!
