About Dickerson Publishing

Creating biblical study resources that illuminate the unity of Scripture


Dickerson Publishing was founded with the goal of creating biblically faithful resources that help readers better understand the unity and depth of Scripture.

Throughout the Bible, God reveals His plan through patterns, promises, and prophetic shadows that ultimately find their fulfillment in Christ. Our aim is to produce books and study resources that illuminate these connections and encourage deeper study of God’s word.

We believe that careful teaching, thoughtful design, and clear visual resources can help readers engage more deeply with the biblical text. For that reason, our publications are created to serve individuals, families, Bible classes, and congregations seeking tools for meaningful study.

Through books, companion study charts, and future resources, Dickerson Publishing seeks to equip believers to explore Scripture with clarity, confidence, and reverence.

Our first publication, Shadows to Substance, explores how the people, events, and institutions of the Old Testament foreshadow the work and identity of Christ revealed in the New Testament.

Dickerson Publishing is an independent publisher dedicated to producing Christ-centered biblical study resources.
