Welcome to the website of Dr. Don Kistler. Dr. Kistler is a Bible teacher and author. If there is a theme to this website, it is “Doctrine Matters.” As the Puritans would often say, “Theology is the art of living well to God.” Proper theology should culminate in proper conduct and practice, or, “Orthodoxy leads to orthopraxy.” We will not live any better than our theology; we may not live as well as our theology, but we will never live any better.

Here we hope you will find teaching that will influence and guide your decisions, choices, and behavior. Since theology is about God, it is imminently practical by its very nature. The more we know God, the more we will seek to imitate Him and the more we will please Him.

OUR PRICE: $50.00 + Shipping

Order Now! The most important thing we can know is what God is like. And God complains in Jeremiah that His people do not know Him. But He has revealed Himself, so we have no excuse for our ignorance of “theology proper.”

THEOLOGY CORNER: TWO WORDS THAT GIVE US HOPE

And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
