ArkQuest — Gamified Bible Learning for KidsPricing →

Kids Bible app · Newala, Tanzania

Kids Bible app for Newala families.

Bible time in Newala usually fails for one reason: nobody decided what to read. Tonight it is decided — 1 Kings 19:1-13, one question and a short prayer, about five minutes from start to finish.

ArkQuest is the Bible app Tanzanian Christian families in Newala use for a 5-minute daily quest — Scripture memory, safe by design, no ads, no chat. Works offline for the Newala commute.

Tonight's family reading · Newala

Elijah and the Still Small Voice — a 5-minute devotion for Newala families

1 Kings 19:1-13 · Hearing God in the quiet

Exhausted and afraid, Elijah hid in a cave. A great wind tore the mountain apart, then an earthquake, then fire — and God was in none of them. Then came a gentle whisper.

This works best in Newala as a bedtime reading. Lights low, 1 Kings 19:1-13 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "hearing god in the quiet"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.

Memory verse

“And after the fire came a gentle whisper.”
1 Kings 19:12

Table question

When is our house quiet enough to hear a whisper?

30-second prayer

God, our days are loud. Give us thirty quiet seconds to hear you. Amen.

Make it stick: on the way through Newala tomorrow, one person says the first half of "And after the fire came a gentle whisper." and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.

Tomorrow: Elijah on Mount Carmel (1 Kings 18:16-39). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.

Question 1 of 33 left · ~30s

On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
