About this Bible story

In Matthew 7:24, Jesus tells the story of two builders. One built his house on the rock, while the other built on sand. The wise builder's house stood strong, while the foolish builder's house fell down.

β€œLike a wise man who built his house on the rock.”

β€” Matthew 7:24 (NIV)

How to Use These Coloring Pages

While the kids color, ask them, 'What makes a choice wise or foolish?' This ties directly to the builders in the story. Focus on the sturdy house on the rock and what it represents in our lives. Have crayons available and plan for about 30 minutes of coloring time.
