"Her practical, Christ-centered Bible study guides will help you dig deeper into the Scriptures and go deeper in the knowledge of God."
- Philip Graham Ryken
[Colossians and Philemon] are not simply beautiful and fascinating letters written during the first remarkable years of growth in the early church; these are the inspired, authoritative Word of God. The same Spirit who inspired these words can teach us what they mean and show us how to apply them to our lives.

"Dr. Kathleen Nielson uses her great love and understanding of literature to lead us into rich study of Holy Scripture. Her studies highlight the importance of meditation and self-discovery while providing just enough gentle guidance always to steer us to the Good Shepherd as our hope and strength. These studies will open minds to understanding the excellencies of God's Word and open hearts to the wonders of his salvation."
-Bryan Chapell, President of Covenant 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."
- Carol J. Ruvolo, author of numerous Bible studies including No Other Gospel and Before the Throne of God
"My wife, who has led and taught Bible studies for many years, has repeatedly remarked about how difficult it is to find quality materials - but now, she says, 'Kathleen Nielson's studies are at the top of my list because they are so biblical, so beautifully written, and so applicable.' Indeed, Dr. Nielson's love for the biblical text and her desire to convey its meaning in its context, coupled with her literary acumen and engagement with everyday life, have given the church a magnificent resource. Simply the very best!"
- R. Kent Hughes, senior pastor emeritus, College Church, Wheaton, IL
"Through the study of the book of Colossians, Kathleen's questions help focus the eyes of our hearts on the one in whom she finds such great delight - the pinnacle of all study - the person and work of the Lord Jesus Christ LIterally, a life-giving study!"
- Teren Sechrist, women's Bible study teacher, Berean Baptist Church, Livonia, MI
"Dr. Kathleen Nielson has a special gift for understanding the Bible as literature, which makes her a superb guide for understanding any passage in the Old or New Testament.
