About this Bible story

In 1 Samuel 15:22, God teaches us how important it is to listen. The kids will love coloring scenes that show obedience, like Samuel talking to Saul. They'll learn that 'To obey is better than sacrifice.'

To obey is better than sacrifice.

How to Use These Coloring Pages

As the kids color, ask them, 'What does it mean to obey?' Remind them that when Samuel talked to Saul, God was upset because Saul didn’t listen. Use markers or crayons to keep it fun, and once they finish, gather for a quick review of the story!

More about these coloring pages

During circle time on Tuesday, we had a great discussion about how important it is to obey God's commands. I handed out the obedience bible coloring page for preschool, and the kids loved coloring scenes of Samuel and Saul. One child, my 4-year-old Lily, asked why it matters to listen to God. I reminded her of the verse, 'To obey is better than sacrifice.' (1 Samuel 15:22) These pages make it easy to connect the story with fun art. Each of the 6 images represents a part of the story, from Samuel's warning to Saul's choice. It’s a great reminder for our little ones about following God's directions in their lives.
