Getting ready
Age & adult help
Following several illustrated panels and reading speech or story text adds a literacy demand to the colouring.
Read panels aloud and help children follow their order. Check the story and wording before using it with younger children.
What you’ll need
Printer, paper, colouring pencils or crayons. An adult reader may be helpful for younger children.
Time & preparation
One comic page, including colouring. Shared reading and discussion are additional.
Age is an editorial estimate for the motor and reading demands of this format. Difficulty, completion time and suggested tools are planning estimates, not build-tested.
Check the file before you print for a group, and allow for any extra help the kids might need.
Printing tipsThe story behind the craft
Bible passage: Daniel 3:1–30
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refuse to worship the king’s image. They say God can rescue them but remain faithful even if he does not; in the furnace a fourth figure appears, and they emerge unharmed.
Main takeaway: Their faithfulness does not depend on being promised an easy rescue.
While you colour the panels
Read the panels in order, pausing at a change in a character’s action or understanding.
Notice the golden image, the refusal and the fourth figure. Read their words before the furnace, especially the phrase about what happens if they are not rescued.
Younger learners can describe an action in one panel. Older learners can compare a caption with its Bible passage and discuss what a short comic leaves out.
Questions to explore
- What were the men told to worship?
- What did they say before entering the furnace?
- How is a conviction different from doing something only for a reward?
Common questions
What files are included in this download?
The download is a 1-page PDF: ThreeMenintheFieryFurnace.pdf. This is the English edition. You print the files yourself; physical supplies are not included.
Is this a comic to read or a colouring sheet?
It combines both on one page: outlined comic panels with story captions. Read the panels in sequence, then colour and talk about the illustrated moments. It is a flat printable, with no paper mechanism to assemble. Printed captions include “King Nebuchadnezzar orders them to be thrown into the fiery furnace” and “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refuse to worship the golden statue”.
Which pages should I print, and at what size?
The original PDF pages are A4 portrait. ThreeMenintheFieryFurnace.pdf: print the page for each learner or group. Print single-sided. On US Letter paper, select Letter and Fit or shrink to the printable area; the originals are not separate Letter-sized files.
What supplies and preparation does this need?
Printer paper and colouring pencils or crayons. An adult can read the captions and help children follow the order of the panels.
What help might children need with this activity?
Suggested ages: 7–12 years. Read panels aloud and help children follow their order. Check the story and wording before using it with younger children. Adjust this guide for the child’s reading and making skills.
