1)  Introduction
----------------
Know Your Bible is a Christian software program comprised of 10 fun and educational games designed to help you learn the Books, People, and Major Events of the Bible.  The goal of each game is to select the book, person, or event in correct order after they have been randomized and placed on a set of buttons.  Each game tracks your percentage correct, your time, and your score.  In addition, each game includes a learn mode, sound effects, and tracks the high score.  The FREEWARE Edition contains the New Testament Books.  The registered Deluxe Edition (only $12) also contains the Old Testament Books, Old Testament People, Old Testament Events, Life of Joseph, Life of David, New Testament Events, Life of Christ, Miracles of Jesus, and Passion Week Events.

5)  Deluxe Registered Edition
-----------------------------
Even though I spent much time and effort in developing the Freeware Edition,it is an offering to the Lord and is provided to you free of charge.  However, in order to cover the rather large cost of my software development components and materials, I need to charge a small fee for the Deluxe Edition.

Therefore, if you register for the Deluxe Edition of this program for the low cost of $12, then you will receive the following additional benefits:

 a) These additional topics to learn and quiz:
	1. Old Testament Books
	2. Old Testament Events
	3. Old Testament People
	4. Life of Joseph Events
	5. Life of David Events
	6. New Testament Events
	7. Life of Christ Events
	8. Miracles of Jesus
	9. Passion Week Events

 b) The capability to track your high score and the overall high score for each of the ten games for more than 100 players so that you can improve your own progress or compare with other's scores.

 c) Free Downloadable Upgrades from the Know Your Bible Web Site.
 d) Free Product Technical Support via E-Mail.
 e) No Buttons to Press on the Startup Screen.
 
In addition, you will have a good feeling knowing that you supported the development of this Christian software program as well as the development of future Christian programs.
