More about these Bible coloring pages
While coloring the road to Emmaus pages, my 9-year-old noticed the moment when Jesus broke bread with the disciples. It reminded her of our family meals together. As she colored, she exclaimed, 'Were not our hearts burning within us?' (Luke 24:32). Each of the six images captures a special moment in this beautiful Bible story, from the disciples walking along the road to their realization of who Jesus was. I plan to use these pages during our next church gathering. They’ll spark great conversations about faith and recognition of Christ in our lives, especially for kids who may not fully understand the resurrection yet. It’s such a wonderful way to tie art to learning!
