Endorsements: "With rich insight and wisdom, Kathleen Nielson invites her students 'to grapple with the text' as she provides helpful contexts and comments along with stimulating study questions. Kathleen's studies are good food for the soul-challenging, convicting, and very, very encouraging." "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." "Kathleen is a gifted communicator. In these studies, with quiet restraint, Kathleen puts her communication skills to use by carefully crafting questions so that it is not her voice you hear. Rather, the student is drawn into Scripture, is given the opportunity to study the very words of God, and learns to hear the Savior speak." "Kathleen's studies will gently lead you to unpack the Scriptures and to sit at the feet of Jesus. With a wonderful balance of truth and application, she ensures that the journey from head to heart is a transforming one. We have enjoyed using this material in our Bible studies for years and look forward to many more titles."
