More about these Bible coloring pages

Last week, we talked about the miracle of raising Lazarus in our preschool class. The story captivated my 4-year-olds, especially when I said, 'Lazarus, come out!' (John 11:43). They loved coloring the images of Jesus, Lazarus, and the crowd. With six pages to choose from, there's plenty to keep them busy. I set out crayons and markers on the table, and it was wonderful to see their little faces lighting up as they colored the pages. Each image helps them remember how Jesus cared for Lazarus and how powerful He is. During our snack time, I asked the kids how they would feel if they saw someone come back to life. Their answers were so sweet and innocent. It’s moments like these that make teaching so rewarding. I love having these raising Lazarus coloring pages on hand for our lessonsβ€”they’re a great way to reinforce this beautiful story in a fun, engaging way.
