More about these Bible coloring pages

Last Tuesday, my 9-year-old sat at the kitchen table, colored pencils scattered everywhere, while working on the Elijah Prophet coloring page. As he colored Elijah standing strong against the wind, he asked, 'Why did God speak in a whisper?' I loved how this connected to the verse 'After the fire came a gentle whisper' (1 Kings 19:12). With 6 images to color, kids can bring Elijah's story to life. These pages are a wonderful way to talk about how God communicates with us. One day after church, I used these pages in our family devotional time. My kids enjoyed coloring while I shared more about Elijah's courage and faith. They really engaged with the images, especially the one of Elijah praying! The pages are easy to print and perfect for kids to color at home or in a group setting.
