My 9-year-old picked up the Jordan River coloring page this past Friday. While coloring, he asked why Jesus chose to be baptized in this specific river. I was thrilled to connect that moment to our lesson on Jesus' life. The page features scenes like Jesus in the water and John the Baptist, which really helped bring the story to life. As I helped him, we talked about how 'Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan' (Matthew 3:13), emphasizing the significance of that event.
