More about these Bible coloring pages
Last Friday, my 9-year-old grabbed his favorite crayons and started coloring the Lost Sheep pages. He was fascinated by how the shepherd searched high and low for that little sheep, asking me questions about God's love. The story from Luke 15 reminds us that God cares deeply for each one of us. 'There will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner' (Luke 15:7). These 6 images include the shepherd, the lost sheep, and the joyful reunion that can spark meaningful conversations. During our arts and crafts day, we talked about how we can show love and kindness to others, just like the shepherd.

I've found that coloring together encourages great discussions about faith and the stories we read in the Bible.
