Famous Servants Quiz

What was the name of the Jetson’s robot maid? Who was Batman’s Butler? Who did Lurch serve? Who lives at Number Seventeen Cherry Tree Lane? This quiz tests your knowledge of famous maids, butlers, nannies and servants. It is a great kick off for a discussion on serving others or just for fun. You can download the PowerPoint file or the image files for use in other screen presentation software from the links below.

How It Works:

Divide your group into teams. I normally give the teams 30 seconds to come up with a team name to add a bit of whimsy to the activity. Give a piece of paper and pen to each team and have them write down the answers as you go through the questions. When you are finished teams should trade paper to grade the quizzes. Give a small prize to the winning team. Smaller groups can have as few as two teams, but try to avoid playing as individuals. Part of the experience is to work together as a team.

I don't have all of the answers and some weeks it feels like I don't have any of the answers. I often find a good word picture or object lesson and build the lesson off of that instead of the other way around. I don't always pray as much as I should and I never study as much as I should. But I love students ministry. I love watching teenagers as they serve God. I love to see them worship and forget about themselves for a while. I love seeing someone wake up to the love of God if only for a little while. I love to see them out serving their community and sharing the love of Christ with others. I love to be a part of their lives and I love seeing the world through their eyes. I am an average youth minister.

    Man, thanks for all your valuable tools and ideas. I was in youth ministry for 18 years, started at age 24, now at age 54 I have been thrust back into it, mostly fill a gap. Out of touch, energy, and some of the zeal I once had I appreciate those who offer resources for those of use who struggle or have been out of the loop for a while. Praise God for you and again, Thanks!!!
