More about these Bible coloring pages
One of my favorite moments from teaching the shrewd manager story is when I see the kids' reactions to the manager's cleverness. 'The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly.' (Luke 16:8) This coloring page captures six scenes, including the manager discussing with his master and making deals. My third graders particularly enjoy the images that depict his resourcefulness. Last week, we used these pages during our lesson, and the kids loved using bright colors to bring the characters to life. It sparked great discussions about being wise with our choices. I keep a printed copy in my binder for easy access during lessons, and the kids often ask to color them again at home. It's a fantastic way to reinforce the lessons we learn from the Bible.
