About this Bible story

In the wheat sheaves story, Joseph's dreams showed how God had a plan for him. The Bible verse John 12:24 reminds us, 'Unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground.' This teaches kids about faith and purpose in God's plan.

β€œUnless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground.”

β€” John 12:24 (NIV)

How to Use These Coloring Pages

While kids color the wheat sheaves, ask them, 'What do you think God was trying to tell Joseph in his dreams?' This question encourages them to think about the Bible story's meaning. Highlight the moment when Joseph's sheaf stood tall while others bowed, linking it to God's plan for him. Have crayons and colored pencils ready for a fun and engaging activity!

More about these coloring pages

My 7-year-old, Emma, grabbed her favorite yellow crayon and immediately started on the wheat sheaves coloring page. She asked me about Joseph's dreams and how they related to the story. I explained that in John 12:24, it says, 'Unless a kernel of wheat falls to the ground.' This sparked a great discussion about how God uses our experiences for His glory. Each of the 6 images on the page represents a moment in Joseph's life, like the sheaves bowing down to his sheaf. I love how coloring these pages allows kids to express creativity while learning about the Bible! Last Friday, we even used them in our Sunday school class, and the kids enjoyed sharing what they learned as they colored.
