It's difficult to overstate the role the Bible has played in Levasheff’s life. "For me, biblical literacy has been essential to knowing how to navigate life,” she said. It helped her to deal with the unexpected and overwhelming loss of her son. Then, thanks to a game show, it became a means to perpetuating his legacy.
“The passage that often comes to mind,” she said, “is John chapter 16 verse 33: In this world you will have trouble. But take heart. I have overcome the world.”

congrats on the winners! Looks like a fun show.
Most americans have lawyered the bible into whatever they want.
Oops! Levasheff may not even know the Bible that well. The scripture quoted at the end of the article is found in John Chapter 16 verse 33, not chapter 14.
Looks like a great idea though - I'd love to see some LDS on the show.
