“This compendium of systematic theology has all the hallmarks of Jon Nielson’s dynamic pastoral ministry: biblical fidelity, theological clarity, and a passion for the practical application of Christian doctrine. Ideal for classrooms and study groups, as well as for personal use, Knowing God’s Truth includes frequent prompts for spiritual practices that will help readers know, love, and celebrate evangelical theology.”
―Philip Graham Ryken, President, Wheaton College

“There’s a good reason why theology seems off-putting to many. Although it’s the study of God, sometimes it’s presented in a dry and dreary way. But in this book, Jon Nielson treats theology as a prayerful, joyful, sometimes challenging but always stimulating encounter with the self-revealing triune God. Knowing God’s Truth not only informs but transforms.”
―Michael Horton, J. Gresham Machen Professor of Systematic Theology and Apologetics, Westminster Seminary California

“In Knowing God’s Truth, Jon Nielson calls followers of Jesus to stop settling for lackluster, hand-me-down theological opinions. He calls us instead to dive deep into Scripture and to cultivate theological convictions by wrestling with God’s truth. Each chapter guides readers to search the Bible for themselves and systematically apply the biblical truths to real life. Our local congregations would benefit immensely from digesting this resource together.”
―Mary Willson Hannah, Director of Women in Ministry, Second Presbyterian Church, Memphis, Tennessee

“Jon Nielson has given us a gift―a clear, well-organized, and practical introduction to systematic theology. Through careful exposition, guided prayer, and practical application, Knowing God’s Truth not only provides the content of each of the major headings of systematic theology, but also leads the reader to deepen his or her fellowship with, and worship of, the God in whom we believe. I praise God for this helpful resource!”
―Brian Cosby, Senior Pastor, Wayside Presbyterian Church, Signal Mountain, Tennessee; Adjunct Professor of Historical Theology, Reformed Theological Seminary, Atlanta

“With each page I turn, I find this book landing on another valuable point of doctrine. Jon Nielson says exactly what he needs to say―briefly, clearly, expertly, soundly―and then bounces on to the next equally helpful teaching. Young believers will eat this up and get a hearty meal. Youth leaders should keep a box of copies of this book nearby and hand them out to every student they know. This book is that readable, that theologically sturdy, and that dialed in to the truths our kids need to feed on.”
―Jack Klumpenhower, author, Show Them Jesus
