More about these Bible coloring pages

Moses stood before the burning bush, and the moment was filled with wonder. 'Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground' (Exodus 3:5), God told him. My son, who’s 7, was fascinated by this story last week during our home study. He colored the bush in bright oranges and yellows, bringing the scene to life. In the six images, kids will see Moses listening intently and the bush aflame but not consumed. After coloring, you can talk about why Moses had to take off his sandals and what it means to be in God's presence. I also love using this page during circle time for a deeper discussion about listening to God. It’s a great way to connect the story to their everyday lives!
