Game Show Network announced Monday that it is producing a pilot for a new original game show, The American Bible Challenge.

The one-hour game show will pit contestants against each other to test their biblical knowledge.

"The American Bible Challenge celebrates America's passion for The Bible in an entertaining, unconventional format that makes The Good Book more accessible to the whole family.  With Tom Forman, Michael Davies and Odyssey Networks, we have assembled a first-rate producing team and we're looking forward to this timely concept coming to fruition," said Amy Introcaso-Davis, executive VP of programming for GSN.

The American Bible Challenge is produced by RelativityREAL for GSN, with RelativityREAL's Tom Forman and Embassy Row's Michael Davies serving as executive producers. Nick Stuart and Maura Dunbar of Odyssey Networks are consulting producers.
