Introducing your little ones to God’s Word early on is a beautiful gift, and ABC Bible verses are a fun way to plant seeds of faith in their hearts! This printable set for young children is designed to help you share simple scripture verses with your children in an engaging, story-filled way. Perfect for family devotions, Christian schools, home schools, or Sunday school, these ABC Bible verses make learning the alphabet an opportunity for spiritual growth.

These coloring pages were designed simply with 3- to 7-year-olds in mind. The coloring lines are simple. Many of the Bible words are simple as well, but some of them are a bit more difficult to pronounce or understand. Take this opportunity to level up your education and see what your child understands.

Teaching the ABCs
Learning the alphabet with Bible verses is an amazing way to introduce small children to God’s Word while also teaching them the building blocks of language. Each letter of the alphabet is paired with a corresponding Bible verse that’s easy for little ones to grasp. Imagine “A is for Ark” and then being able to review the Noah story with your little one! It’s a perfect gift for introducing concepts of God’s care, the light of the world, and the glory of God to preschoolers and young children.
This approach to teaching the ABCs helps foster a lifelong love of God and His Word in small children, using real-life situations and scriptural passages to bring each letter to life.
Why would you want to use these Bible alphabet colorings with your children? Here are a few reasons.
- They help reinforce Biblical concepts
- They encourage the use of Biblical words
- They are fun and interactive
- They get your child to engage with scripture!
Basically, it can be summed up like this: if you want your child to be influenced by the Bible, use Biblical materials!
Although there is nothing wrong with the traditional ABCs, A is for Apple, B is for Bat, and C is for Cat. There is also nothing that grounds those with the Bible. You certainly do not have to teach the ABCs with Biblical words, but let me ask you a question, why not?
Your child needs to learn the ABCs anyway and instead of using the progressive teaching model, why not start with some Bible words instead? You’ve got nothing to lose!
How to Use the ABC Bible Verses Printable
There are many ways you can use the Bible alphabet coloring printable. First, you will want to print it out. If you want to simply have your child color and trace the letters, then the plain paper is fine. However, if you want to use the sheets multiple times, I suggest using cardstock.
The ABC Bible Verses Printable can be used in many creative ways to keep your little learners engaged. Here are some ideas:
- Simple Coloring and Tracing: Young children can color each letter and trace it with a crayon or pencil. This is a fun way to reinforce letter shapes while discussing each verse.
- Memory Verse Cards: Print on cardstock to create memory verse flash cards. You can bind them with binder rings, making it easy to flip through and review.
- Story Format: Turn each verse into a mini-lesson by using the verse to discuss real-life situations. For example, when talking about the “cross” you can talk about the Easter story and Jesus’ saving grace.
- Lamination and Reuse: Laminate the pages to make durable play-doh mats or use them with dry-erase markers so that your youngest child can practice writing letters over and over.
- Family Devotions: Use one letter per week as part of your family devotions. This allows each verse to really sink in and provides an opportunity to explore its meaning further.
This printable is an excellent way to provide independent work for little hearts to focus on in Sunday school, Bible clubs, or at home.
I have found that purchasing a laminator was much more cost-effective than I originally thought. The Amazon Basics laminator is under $30 and is often on sale for under $25.
You could also bind this in a 3-ring binder and add many other Bible-based printables! You could even memorize scripture with your child based on the letter you are learning or coloring. My friend Mindy Jones has a great resource for ABC memorizing scripture.

Literacy Development
For 4 years I taught a class called “Literacy Adventures”. It was my favorite class that I have ever taught. Literacy is the catalyst for lifelong learners. One thing I learned and have continued to learn as I teach young children is not to push! I would much rather have a child that loves learning, than a child that knows his/her ABCs at a young age.
My son Wyatt is currently 4 years old and still learning his ABCs. Part of me is embarrassed by this, but the other part of me is proud. He is learning at his own pace and enjoys it!
Using Bible verses in literacy development also enriches your child’s daily lives by allowing them to explore simple scripture verses that they can relate to. From a young age, these words act as the building blocks of the soul, guiding them toward understanding God’s love and the amazing promises He has for them.
