More about these Bible coloring pages

My 7-year-old colored one of these Fishers of Men pages just last week and kept asking about the story behind it. As he colored, he was so curious about how Peter and Andrew left everything to follow Jesus. The page features Jesus standing by the water, calling to the fishermen, which led to a great talk about what it means to be a disciple. I reminded him of the verse where Jesus says, 'Come, follow me, and I will send you out to fish for people' (Matthew 4:19). These pages are fun and engaging, with images that show Peter and Andrew casting their nets, Jesus talking to the crowd, and more. I set up a little art station with colored pencils and some snacks, and we spent the afternoon talking about how we can share God’s love with others, just like they did. It’s a simple yet meaningful activity that can connect kids to the Bible story.
