More about these Bible coloring pages

Last week during our Sunday school class, my third graders were captivated by the rich young ruler scene. As they colored, we discussed how Jesus called the ruler to 'Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor' (Mark 10:21). The images show the ruler approaching Jesus, his expression of concern, and the crowd's reactions. I keep a printed copy in my binder, and it's been a fantastic resource. The kids especially enjoy the scene where Jesus explains the difficulty of wealth. It's a great way to engage them in meaningful conversation about priorities and generosity. Plus, it fits perfectly with our recent lessons on kindness and giving.
