Are you searching for an uplifting activity or gift for someone? You’re in the right place! I’ve designed Bible verse coloring pages specifically aimed at providing encouragement. As a mother, I desperately need a daily dose of encouragement (along with a side of coffee, of course).
Why We [Adults] Need to Color More
Undoubtedly, adult coloring books have become increasingly popular over the past decade or two. It’s no secret that coloring has numerous benefits. Basically, all you need to do is a simple Google search for “benefits of coloring” to find tons of articles listing these benefits. Research suggests coloring can help reduce anxiety, decrease stress, boost positive moods, increase creativity, improve mindfulness, and decrease screen time.
That said, coloring is not the sole treatment for any mental health diagnosis; however, research suggests it could complement traditional therapy. Not to mention, it’s also a convenient stress relief activity.
Immersing myself in the word of God is also incredibly comforting. I know many people in this world feel the same way, so why not combine both?
My Backstory
I first dipped my toes in children’s coloring books a few years ago, which were coloring cookbooks. My daughter was my biggest inspiration for creating those books. After making a few different versions, I decided to try adult-themed coloring books, and now I can’t stop. Everyone, especially a mom, needs a good hobby. I’ve landed on creating coloring books, but I’m not complaining!
My ultimate goal is to keep making more. Although I currently only have one Bible verse coloring book available, I plan to make more with different scriptures in the future.
My other coloring books have a humorous theme, but this one differs. It still has the same design theme; however, it’s full of scripture rather than funny quotes.
