“Pastors and Christian educators are always on the lookout for rich, wellresearched, reliable, helpful, clear teaching material that will get our people into the Word together, helping us to understand its meaning, to see its implications for us in all of life, and to pray it back to God. These studies supply us with precisely that.”

—Ligon Duncan, Chancellor and CEO, Reformed Theological Seminary 

“With rich insight and wisdom, Kathleen Nielson invites her students to ‘grapple with the text’ as she provides helpful contexts and comments interspersed throughout stimulating study questions. Kathleen’s studies are good food for the soul—challenging, convicting, and very, very encouraging.”

—Joel Belz, Founder, WORLD Magazine
