Endorsements (${ productEndorsements.length })
"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!"
