Bible Explorers

A weekly live Bible adventure on Zoom for ages 5 to 11. Solve the mystery, meet a Bible hero, and fill in your map.

How a week works

One live class a week, with a little to do before and after. Missed a class? Watch the recap. It counts exactly the same.

Before class

Read the clues and work out the mystery character. It takes about five minutes on a phone or tablet.

Live on Zoom

Story, games, a memory verse and prayer, with two friendly leaders. A grown-up joins you.

After class

Take on a small mission, talk about a question with your family, and add a new place to your map.

Two crews, one story

Everyone hears the same Bible story each week, but each crew gets its own pace and its own activities.

Ages 5 to 7

Explorers

Short and lively, with lots of moving about.

  • About 28 minutes live
  • Stories with props, actions and chants
  • No reading needed
Ages 8 to 11

Trailblazers

More to think about, more to work out, more to discover.

  • About 42 minutes live
  • Interview the character, find the verse in a real Bible
  • Deeper "I wonder" questions

Try a mystery clue

This is the kind of puzzle you'll get before each class. Nothing you do here is saved.

Who am I?

Badges for discovering

Story DetectiveYou worked out the mystery character.
Map MarkerYou finished a study and put a hero on the map.
Verse KeeperYou learned this month's memory verse.
Brave Like DavidYou told us about a time you chose to be brave.
Big Question AskerYou asked a great question about God or the Bible.

Badges celebrate what you've discovered and how you're growing. They never measure how much God loves you, and there are no leaderboards. The whole class fills the camp progress bar together.

For parents and carers

Children's safety comes first. This is how we are building Bible Explorers.

Grown-up accounts only

Children never get their own login or email. You sign in, and you choose who plays.

First names and avatars

No surnames, photos, ages, schools or locations. Ever.

No chat between children

No messages, comments or uploads. Every reply is picked from a list.

Two vetted adults in every class

Leaders have a DBS check (or the local equivalent) and safeguarding training, and each church has a named safeguarding lead.

A locked-down Zoom room

Waiting room and passcode, a class link that only appears shortly before class, chat and screen-sharing off, and no recording by default.

Your family's information stays yours

You can see, download and delete it. No advertising and no tracking on children's pages.

Bible Explorers is still being built. These are the rules we are building to, and we will publish our full safeguarding and privacy policy before the first class runs. A grown-up nearby, and a device that can run Zoom, is all a child needs to join.
