Proverbs For You

Overall, I found the book to refresh my soul. There is tremendous wisdom in the book of Proverbs and if we listen carefully, we too can gain this wisdom. Kathleen Nielson is a reliable guide lighting up this path of wisdom, showing us the relevant themes of the book and applying these truths to the modern reader. The God’s Word for You series is building up a solid reputation with its reader-friendly and practical books. This book is no different and I am very glad to commend it to you. 5/5 stars. | While Nielson writes to explain the verses, she does not fail to show us the big picture of Proverbs and how it points to Jesus Christ. As the Bride of Christ, the Church is called to be wise in the world. This book is better than any Study Bible notes. Hear wisdom calling in these words. | So, what should you know about this particular volume? You should know that Kathleen Nielson has done a fantastic job of teaching a difficult book. If I could summarize her approach to Proverbs in one word, I would say, “accessible.” | Kathleen Nielson is a renowned conference speaker internationally, and served as Director of Women's Initiatives at The Gospel Coalition.
