When I was a quiz coach, when it came time to practice review, I would always create 1 quizmatch, which I called "The Impossible Quizmatch." The "Impossible Quizmatch" would contain what I believed to be the 15 hardest quiz questions, most of which were lists. Well, not being a quiz coach is not going to stop me from that! Luke 16-24 & Acts 1-9 had plenty of good lists. Some of which were heard during the season, others were heard during the tournament, some of which were heard both times, other were heard at neither. Without further ado, here are the top 15 hardest questions coming from Luke 16-24 & Acts 1 - 9. The questions are above the picture of the quizbook cover, and the answers are below the picture of the quizbook cover. See how many you know!
