More about these Bible coloring pages

Just yesterday, my 10-year-old was working on this fig tree parable coloring page while sipping hot cocoa. 'A man had a fig tree growing in his vineyard' (Luke 13:6) really struck him as he colored the tree and the gardener's tools. The six images on the page provide a visual story to spark questions about why the gardener wanted to keep the tree alive. It’s such a simple yet profound lesson about growth and care that kids can relate to. We love using these pages during our Friday afternoon homeschool sessions. The kids can color while I discuss how we can be fruitful in our own lives, just like the fig tree should have been. Plus, it's a free printable that fits perfectly in our lesson plans!
