About this Bible story
After Jesus' resurrection, two disciples traveled the road to Emmaus. They met Jesus, but they didn't recognize Him. Later, they realized who He was when He broke bread with them. Luke 24:32 reminds us, 'Were not our hearts burning within us?'
“Were not our hearts burning within us?”
How to Use These Coloring Pages
While the children color, ask them, 'What does it feel like to see a friend you haven't seen in a long time?' Highlight the moment when the disciples realize who Jesus is. For supplies, use thick crayons for easy handling, and consider a follow-up discussion on how we can recognize Jesus in our daily lives.

More about these Bible coloring pages
While teaching the road to Emmaus story, I noticed my youngest class member, a bright-eyed 7-year-old named Mia, intently coloring an image of Jesus with the disciples. That moment brought the lesson to life. Each of the six images captures key scenes from Luke's account. As they colored, I asked them about their favorite part of the story. The children loved discussing how the disciples felt when they realized who Jesus was, especially when they exclaimed, 'Were not our hearts burning within us?' (Luke 24:32). Using these printable pages in class not only keeps kids engaged but also helps reinforce the message in a fun way.
