These are eight Bible verse coloring pages for adults, each with one short verse in big outlined letters and a simple frame to fill in.

Coloring keeps your hands busy and your mind still. That's useful on a long evening when you used to drink. Color slowly, read the verse while you work, and let it become a prayer.

Ways to use them

  • Keep a page and a box of pencils where you used to sit with a drink.
  • Color one with your kids, your spouse or a friend from your group.
  • Bring a few to a women's or men's group, or a church recovery night.
  • Frame a finished page, or tape it inside a cabinet you open every day.

How to use it

  1. Print on heavier paper or cardstock if you have it, so markers don't bleed through.
  2. Colored pencils and fine-tip markers work best on the letters.
  3. Read the verse out loud before you start, and again when you finish.
  4. Write the date on the back. Later you'll have a stack that marks your first months.

Scripture to go with it

“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”

““Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!””

Common questions

Are these for adults or kids?

They're made with adults in mind, with bold lettering and a simple frame, but kids can color them too.

What size are they?

US letter, 8.5 by 11 inches, one verse per page. They print fine on A4.

Can I print copies for a group?

Yes. Print as many as you like for your church, group or family. Please don't sell them.

Why coloring in recovery?

Evenings can be long early on. Coloring gives your hands something to do while you sit with a verse, which is a quiet kind of prayer.
