More about these coloring pages

One afternoon, my son asked why Joshua needed to be strong and courageous. I shared that God was with him, just like He is with us! As we colored the pages together, I pointed out the image of Joshua receiving God's command. The verse says, 'Be strong and courageous' (Joshua 1:9), which is a great reminder for kids. These six coloring pages are filled with vibrant scenes that can spark discussions about faith and bravery. My 9-year-old enjoyed showing her siblings how to add colors to Joshua's armor, while I explained the importance of trusting God in tough times. It's a wonderful way to reinforce this Bible story while having fun.
