A Note from Louisa, Founder of MyKidColors
Growing up in the church, the story of David and Goliath was a core memory. Though I never had the chance to color a David and Goliath coloring page back then, what always stood out to me wasn’t the giant’s terrifying size. It was the simplicity of David’s gear. It was his unwavering bravery in the face of the impossible, rooted in the deep knowing that what God cannot do does not exist.
As an adult and a mother, the “giants” in my life have looked very different. I felt it most acutely in the delivery room. When you look at the statistics—knowing that Black women face significantly worse outcomes during childbirth—that reality becomes a terrifying giant staring you down. But in that room, I had to step forward in faith. God was watching over me and my little one that day.

Less screen time. More soul time.
When my children sit down to color these pages, I want them to feel that same confidence. I want them to know that size does not determine strength. I want to plant the promise of Psalm 91:7 in their hearts: even if a thousand fall at your side, God’s mighty hand of protection is there.
And I also want them to understand something deeper: we live in a world where good people still get hurt. Faith is not pretending giants don’t exist. It’s believing God is bigger.
That’s the heart behind these David And Goliath coloring pages.
Conversation Corner: Turn Coloring Into Connection
Coloring can open the door to meaningful conversations. Try asking these questions while your child colors:
- For the Faith Courage Pose (Page 5): “David trusted God even when he felt small. Can you think of a time you felt nervous but still tried your best?”
- For the Calm Before Battle Scene (Page 9): “Why do you think David prayed before the battle? What helps you feel calm when you’re worried?”
- For the Armor Contrast Scene (Page 15): “David didn’t need Saul’s armor. What special strengths do you have that make you who you are?”

Why We Choose Hand-Drawn Over AI
When we teach our children about biblical heroes, they should be able to see themselves in the story. Impersonal, mass-produced designs often strip away cultural context and warmth.
