Chris,

the source dir structure is not important in this case. The tips are being 
loaded from $KDEDIR/share/apps/bibletime/tips (thus bibletime/tips). Make 
sure you performed "make install" before trying, and if it still not works, 
search in $KDEDIR instead.
Hth. Looking forward to working with you.

Martin
