More about these Bible coloring pages
One of my favorite moments in Sunday school is when the kids color the page showing Lazarus stepping out of the tomb. The joy on their faces as they realize Jesus' power is incredible. In one of the images, you can see Jesus calling out, 'Lazarus, come out!' (John 11:43), which always sparks a discussion about faith. I usually print these pages for our lesson on Lazarus, and they love sharing their colorful creations with their families. Last month, my 9-year-old niece colored one and gave it to her grandmother, saying it reminded her of Jesus' love. Each of the 6 images illustrates different parts of the Raising Lazarus story, making it perfect for any Sunday school class.
