Is There a Fun Way For my Children to Get God's Word at Home?

Do you worry that your kids are not being exposed enough to God's Word?

Bible clubs, Sunday school, and Children's Church have their place, but God gave your kids to you, not to a program or club, no matter how good. (I love Sunday school and Awana's Bible clubs and have taught both for years. They are great so take advantage of them when you can!). But your children are God's gift to you, not to them, and the responsibility of stewardship is yours.

I felt that if my church blessed my kids, I had an obligation to give back. So I always taught in the children's department. Each week I created a coloring page for the kids. Those coloring pages developed into the BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY activity booklet. It is another tool to help families reach their children for Christ.

BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY is an activity booklet I send as a gift to those who support my blog with a monthly donation. It has 10 scriptural activities for kids that are provided every week to subscribers.

Available to my Patreons for $3.50 a month. Support my blog through Patreon and receive immediate access to the archive of recent issues that you can use today. Every issue has 10 activities and discussion questions so parents and teachers can transition from a fun activity to spiritual truth.

I spend 20-30 hours a week designing and creating these printables; it is too much work for the occasional donation. So I am forced to offer it for a subscription.

Here is an image of issue 78. You can see this is only half of the bulletin. Each issue has two double-sided bi-fold pages. It looks like a bulletin or program. One section is for older children, and one section is for younger.

When you make your monthly pledge of only $3:50, you will receive BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY, a printable booklet for children's activities every week. You will receive additional material available only to patrons, as well as an editable Word Doc. It has pages of puzzles, coloring pictures, and games for the kids. You can share it with the kids in your church, Awana Bible club, class, camp, VBS, Backyard Bible club, school, and home. Use the button below.

Isaiah 55:10-11.

Free 1 Peter 5:6-7 Printable Coloring Page. Humble yourselves before God Bible verse

This is a free print and color page for the Bible verses of 1 Peter 5:6-7.

This is one of the most famous scripture passages. It is a favorite for memory work. It encourages us to be humble and promises that God will bless us if we do. Significantly, the following verse admonishes us to "cast" our anxiety on the Lord. Is it because we must be humble before we can cast our burdens on the Lord? This verse gives us much to think about, but we can all agree that it is comforting that "He cares for you." That care is abundantly clear when we see his Son on the cross dying for our sins.

You do not have to make a donation to download my coloring pages. However, if you'd like to, the donate button is located below the picture. Thank you for your gifts, prayers, memberships, and donations. I would not be able to create these without your support.

How Can You Share The Gospel To Your Kids or Grandkids When They Are Far From You?

Do you have young children or grandchildren? Would you like them to come to faith in Jesus? Or are you unable to see the little ones who you were teaching the faith?

You can use BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY to reach out to kids who may be far away or unable to attend religious activities. Each week you can print the newest issue and send it to them in the mail with a little note. As they enjoy the puzzles and the coloring pictures, they will be exposed to God's word, which will not return void. Not to mention kids love to get mail.

BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY my thank gift to those who support my blog through Patreon. It is designed like a booklet that you print for the kids. It has 10+ scripture verses in each issue. At first, I was making this an extra craft time activity for the kid's Bible club at church. But it has grown into something more.

It can be used as a supplement to a lesson, as a take-home handout, a quiet time activity, a craft time activity, and many other ways. When the kids do the activities, they are being exposed to God's Word. The discussion questions can be used for spontaneous conversations and teaching.

How to receive this every week

Support my art for only $3.50 a month, and you will receive an activity booklet each week with pages of Bible verse activities. These will include the bonus pages that are not available in the free version. When you support me through Patreon, you will have immediate access to some recent issues that you can use today. Cancel anytime.

THE BEST OF GOD'S WORD

Each issue has ten Bible verse activities that are really exciting and powerful. I spent hours choosing the verses for this issue, and some of these scriptures challenge us no matter our age: but remember, God's Word will not return void (Isaiah 55:10-11). Issue 77 has a mix of scriptures that include the Gospel, worship, teaching, and discipleship.

To see a list of available free issues, CLICK HERE. You may download and print as many as you like.

Issue 77 was a lot of work for me. I had to recreate the crossword puzzle at least twice. The cipher puzzle was complex because I created a new pictograph alphabet, which sounded like a good idea, but it was hard to get images that worked in the scale created by the space I had for it. I spent more time on one of the coloring pages than I would normally, and I spent a day on the Bible verse maze puzzle. In the end, it turned out great, and I am very proud of the results. I pray the Lord uses this issue to plant the seed of His Word in hearts.

The image below only shows pages 2 and 3; there are 4 pages in the current issue and an appendix with discussion questions.

Free Isaiah 53:6 Printable Coloring Page, All We like sheep Bible verse

Below is a printable stained glass-style coloring page of Isaiah 53:6.

Isaiah 53:6 is one of those scriptures we often share when we understand that we are lost and far from God. It is a word picture of the sheep, and somehow, that powerfully catches our imagination. We relate the helplessness of the sheep and its wandering. The verse takes us from our need for rescue to the one God has sent to fulfill that need by substituting or standing in for our judgment.

MY ORIGINAL ART

Even though this picture looks simple, I still worked on it all evening, from dinner to bedtime. I used a lightbox and a fine-tipped marker to trace the design several times. I wanted something that looked like a cathedral-stained glass window.

I create these coloring pictures because I love God's Word, and I hope they are a blessing to you.

COLOR THE PICTURE

You can have a lot of fun coloring this scripture page. I would recommend using four or five colors for the geometric shape; if you do not use enough variety, then at some point, you will have two shapes with the same color, so use four or more colors or hues of the same color can be fun. You can try to leave the letters white. The frame bars can be a contrasting color that is not part of the background.

Children like to color the pictures with crayons, but if you try fine-tipped markers or colored pencils like my favorite, Prismacolor, you can get into the smaller areas. Prismacolor pencils can be found at Michaels or Hobby Lobby. (I always look for coupons online.) The letters are big enough to color in.

I hope you make a masterpiece.

Blessings, and Thank you.

Free Amos 5:14 print and Color Page, Seek Good, Not Evil Bible Verse.

Below is a free Amos 5:14 print and color page.

This verse is an excellent scripture of challenge. It is also a promise. We are to seek good, which means striving for and working for good. It also says not to seek evil, so we must be discerning and know the difference between good and evil. God is good; if His spirit is in us, we must be characterized by doing good. The promise is that God will show himself to be among us, but it doesn't say how. Might it be because he will bless or give some miracle or testimony through the Spirit? Or he could keep that part to himself until the time comes.

There are a lot of vines and flowers around the border that can be in different shades of green.
The flowers can be a lot of different bright colors.
The frame bars can be some contrasting colors.
You can use multiple colors for the background since the frame bars separate the border from the main area.

Free Bible Romans 8:15 Verse Word Search Activity for Kids.

This is a free Bible verse word search using Romans 8:15 for the text.

It is a free sample from BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY Issue 76, a kid's activity bulletin for children's church, camps, clubs, and homeschool.

BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY

BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY is published each week and is available to subscribers. (I'm sorry, I would love to give it out free, but when it takes 25 to 30 hours to create, I just can't afford to only hope for an occasional donation for my labor). Subscription is only $3.50 a month, and you get a 4-page Bi-fold printable with 10 scripture verse activities for the kids every week emailed to you.

This word search is a free sample.

Romans 8:15 says.

"For the Spirit that God has given you does not make you slaves and cause you to be afraid; instead, the Spirit makes you God's children, and by the Spirit's power we cry out to God, "Father! my Father!"" Romans 8:15.GNT

You might ask why I choose the Romans 8:15 verse for one of the ten in this children's activity bulletin. I do not apologize for giving the hard sayings of the Bible, because when we only teach the easy, fun verses about love and fulfillment that are easy and require nothing of us, then our youth grow up with a view of Christ, the church, and faith as something shallow, easy, and requires nothing of them. But being a generation of activism, they are looking for something to live for, and a shallow faith does not resound to them, so they pursue other causes to live for.

However, like all others, this issue contains many of the "favorites" that we all cherish.

Below is a free 2 Peter 1:3 print and color page.

This verse is a great promise that our lives of discipleship need not be lives of failure but lives of abundance because God has provided all we need. Sometimes we feel that we have to do it or we are missing some formula that is supposed to give us blessings. But we do not need to do anything because it is given and if it is all given our lives become a matter of receiving.

2 Peter 1:3 Says

His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. 2 Peter 1:3.

Free Matthew 6:19-20 Word Search puzzle, Treasure in Heaven Bible Verse

Here is a free Bible verse word search puzzle for Matthew 6:19-20.

The word search puzzle below is a free sample from issue 75 of BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY, an activity bulletin for kids. It is my thank you gift available every week to those who support my blog through Patreon. It has 10 Bible verse activities for kids grades k-5. This Matthew 6:19-20 word search appears in the right section of page 1. The left section is available only to subscribers. It is designed to be printed two-sided and bi-folded like a bulletin or program.

WHY A CHILDREN'S ACTIVITY BULLETIN

When the grown-ups are greeted at church do they get a bulletin but the kids don’t? What is that saying to the kids? BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY is a perfect children's bulletin for your meetings. Mom and Dad get an important bulletin and so do they. Then while the kids are waiting for the program or church service to begin they can quietly do the activities.

Matthew 6:19-20 says,

Don’t collect for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. But collect for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves don’t break in and steal. Matthew 6:19-20 HCSB ©.

I started to make Bible verse activity handouts when I was teaching a children's Bible club called Awanas. I used them to fill free time and as an alternate craft time activity. They became popular so I started to put them online on this blog. I am deeply grateful that they are used all over the world, and have been a blessing to many people.

HOW TO RECEIVE

If you have never received the BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY activity bulletin then click on the SUBSCRIBE tab to learn more. It is only $3.50 a month. (I'm sorry that I can't do it for free but each issue takes between 20 and 30 hours or more to design and create each week and that is just too much work for an occasional donation.)

Support my blog through Patreon and receive Bible Time Fun Weekly every week and have immediate access to the last five issues.

Are There Kid's Bible Verse Take Home Pages for Awanas, Good News Club, or Back Yard Bible Club?

Your class, church, or club is over, and the kids are leaving. What can you do to extend your positive influence beyond the class? Is there something you can send home with them that will continue the work of God's Word in their hearts?

I create BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY to thank those who support my Bible verse art blog. It is the perfect after-class take-home handout that connects others to your club, church, or class. It extends your influence into their homes. Every week you can give your members something exciting and new to do at home that will continue the ministry of the Holy Spirit in their lives.

I used to teach Sunday school and also VBS and Awanas Bible Club. I began to make coloring pages to give to the children for craft time and as a take-it-home handout. I began to make a mini activity booklet and mailed them to the kids after summer vacation bible school. It was too much work then, but now I have a computer and more skills and some tools to make these easier to create. So for the last few years, I've made BIBLE TIME FUN WEEKLY as a resource for discipleship and outreach.

Subscription is $3.50 a month, and you will receive an activity magazine each week with 10+ Bible verse activities. Subscribe through Patreon, and you will have immediate access to an archive of issues that you can use today. Cancel anytime.

Become a Patron! Thank you for supporting this Bible art blog.

I spend hours on art and formatting each issue, but the Word is the vital part. Each issue has ten Bible verse activities that are exciting and powerful. I spend hours choosing the verses, and some of these scriptures challenge us no matter our age: but remember, God's Word will not return void (Isaiah 55:10-11). Issue 74 has a mix of scriptures that include the Gospel, worship, teaching, and discipleship.

To my international friends

The Word Doc can be edited, for example, to add announcements or a club's name and address; just remember to make a backup copy in case things do not work out.

May I ask for a favor?

Would you please pray that God uses these printable bulletin activities to sow His Wonderful Word in the hearts of Children? (Isaiah 55:10-11) And would you ask Him to bless me as I seek to obey and use my art for His glory? Thank you so much.

Blessings, And Thank You

Free Psalm 91:1Print and Color Page, The Shadow of the Almighty, Bible verse

I am glad to share my free print and color page for Psalm 91:1.

This is an awesome verse that has deep meaning and beautiful poetry. Since it is so poetic, you can have many applications to this verse. When you think about dwelling, it gives you a sense of closeness and permanence. It suggests that you are intentional about dwelling there. To rest is so significant in today's chaotic world. If you are in someone's shadow, it gives you the picture of being close behind someone as they are protecting you.

A LITTLE ABOUT PRINTING THE PICTURE

Few people have trouble printing the picture, but if you do, CLICK HERE to visit my HOW-TO-PRINT page for suggestions.

MY ART

NOTE: My art is drawn by hand and not generated by a Bot or AI. Thank you for supporting human beings who make art.

I really agonized over how to make a coloring page for this verse. It needed to be outstanding and fit the words' beauty. I looked at a lot of my other drawings and art for ideas, and finally settled on a sunrise over the mountains scene. I had to draw it a few times and then trace it onto the page with the words. After I scanned it into the computer, I cleaned it up and made a few more changes. It took all evening, but I am thrilled with how it turned out. I hope you like it and that it inspires you.

COLOR THE PICTURE

This is a theatrical picture, and when it is colored, it can have a real impact. The letters are open and can be colored in, and the frame bars can be colored in with a contrasting color for interest. The scene can be very bright with sunrise colors and landscape colors.

Kids like to color this picture with crayons, but if you try fine-tipped markers or colored pencils, you will be able to get into the smaller areas. My favorite coloring pencils are Prismacolor. Prismacolor pencils can be found at Staples, Michaels, or Hobby Lobby. (I always look for coupons online.)

Blessings, and thank you.

A WORD ABOUT PRINTING

ABOUT MY ART

👉NOTE: THIS ART WAS DRAWN BY HAND BY A HUMAN BEING. IT WAS NOT "GENERATED" BY A BOT OR AI! THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT.

I spent a long time designing this coloring page. I wanted to put something in the corners and thought that hearts would be good since the verse was about love. I put a scene in the lower corner with a cross in it because we see the love of God demonstrated on the cross. There are a lot of flowers and fun things to color around the border.

You can have a lot of fun coloring this picture.

The letters are opened enough to color in with fine-tipped markers or pencils.
Of course, the hearts can be red, pink, or some other color.
The many different flowers give a lot of room to be creative with varying patterns of color.
A ribbon intertwined in the flowers is almost hidden, but it gives an area for contrasting colors.
The frame bars can be another place for contrasting colors.
The background can be colored, too.

ABOUT MY ART

I wanted to keep it simple because the verse is so powerful, but the artwork took about six hours more to create and get right than I had thought it would. I wanted to put pictures around the border representing Christ in his service, so I put the cross, the lamb, and the crown of thorns. The fourth corner features the Lion, since scripture references Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah. (Revelation 5:5). I first used letters like italics, but after a while, I thought the Old English Style was a better choice for this picture. It looks more like an illuminated text from some ancient manuscript.

COLOR THE PICTURE

This picture can be beautiful when colored in.

The flowers and leaves offer plenty of places for a splash of color.
The corner pictures can be opportunities for creativity.
The letters are open and can be colored with pencils or fine-tipped markers.
The frame bars can be a bright color that sets off everything else.
The background can be something light.

I hope you enjoy coloring it.

Blessings, And Thank You.
