More about these Bible coloring pages

When my daughter was coloring these pages last week, she noticed how Samuel was so eager to serve in the temple. The images capture him listening attentively and serving Eli. It’s a great way to illustrate the importance of listening for God's guidance. The Bible verse 'Speak, for your servant is listening' (1 Samuel 3:10) beautifully ties into the lesson. One afternoon, we discussed how God speaks to us today, and my kids shared their own experiences during quiet times. Using these pages can spark similar discussions while coloring together. The cute illustrations make it easy for kids to engage with the story, and parents can even use colored pencils for finer details. Plus, these pages fit perfectly into our church binder for Sunday school activities.
