More about these Bible coloring pages

At the kitchen table last Saturday, my 9-year-old was excited to color Jephthah. The images show Jephthah, his daughter, and him making his vow to God. As we talked about the story, I reminded her how important it is to keep promises, just like 'Jephthah made a vow to the Lord' (Judges 11:30). We discussed why Jephthah was chosen as a judge and what it meant to trust God in difficult times. For our next Sunday school lesson, I plan to use this Jephthah coloring page for kids. It’s a great way for them to engage with the story while expressing their creativity. Plus, the kids love sharing their colorful creations afterward, which sparks even more conversation about faith and promises.
