More about these Bible coloring pages
The Good Shepherd Jesus coloring page for kids features 6 delightful images that illustrate the story of Jesus caring for His flock. My youngest, who’s 5, was excited to color a picture of Jesus holding a lamb. It reminded us of how 'I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep' (John 10:14). We talked about how Jesus knows us all by name. During our art session last Friday, I noticed my 8-year-old connecting the dots between the pictures and our Bible readings. She asked how a shepherd protects his sheep, which opened up a discussion about safety and love. These pages make it easy for kids to visualize the story while they color, reinforcing the message of Jesus' care for us.
