More about these Bible coloring pages

When my class colored the net of fish pages last week, the room was filled with laughter and chatter. One child exclaimed how the fish reminded them of the ones they caught at the lake! Each of the six images illustrates the parable beautifully. I love how one page highlights Jesus' words, 'The kingdom of heaven is like a net' (Matthew 13:47). It’s a great way to connect the lesson with a tangible activity. My students also enjoyed discussing how we, like fish, are called to be part of God's kingdom. With crayons scattered on my table, we spent a joyful hour coloring and learning together. These pages are perfect for Sunday school, encouraging kids to think about their place in God's family.
