More about these coloring pages

While my 10-year-old colored the Courage David pages, he asked me why David wasn't afraid to face Goliath. We ended up discussing how God calls us to be brave, just as He said in Joshua 1:9, 'Be strong and courageous.' The six images include David choosing his stones, the moment he swings the sling, and his victory dance! Each scene is a fantastic visual for kids to remember the story. Last week during our Bible study, I printed these pages for my class, and the kids were so excited to color while we talked about courage and faith. It led to wonderful discussions about times they’ve been brave, too. Coloring like this really brings the story alive.
