About this Bible story

In the Parable of the Talents, a man gives his servants money before going on a journey. Two servants invest it wisely, but one hides his talent. When the master returns, he praises the good servants with 'Well done, good and faithful servant!' (Matthew 25:21).

β€œWell done, good and faithful servant!”

β€” Matthew 25:21 (NIV)

How to Use These Coloring Pages

While coloring, ask kids how they can use their talents for God. Highlight the moment when the master praises the faithful servants in Matthew 25:21. For supplies, make sure to have washable markers and colored pencils ready. This can lead to a great follow-up discussion about sharing their talents with others.

More about these Bible coloring pages

The 'Well done, good and faithful servant!' (Matthew 25:21) line always gets my kids thinking about how they can use their talents. My 9-year-old was particularly excited when we printed these Parable of the Talents coloring pages. We had a fun coloring session last Saturday afternoon, talking about the different servants and their choices. Each page shows a unique part of the story, from the master giving the talents to the servants making their decisions. I love how these pages spark conversations. As my kids colored, I asked them how they could use their own gifts to serve others. It was heartwarming to see their creativity flow. These pages are not just for fun; they help reinforce the lesson from Matthew 25:21 about being faithful stewards of what God has given us!
