Andrews University has an M.Div. in-ministry program where students stay in their local fields for the first half of the degree, meeting up for intensives in different parts of the US, and then moving to Michigan for the second

I'm glad they were useful, Clifford! I am trying to demonstrate different features of Logos each week, depending on what is suitable to the lesson material. Does somebody have some suggestions for features in Logos that you are curious or puzzled about and want to see demonstrated? Just let me know, and I will try to incorporate it into the videos in

I listed these as examples of errors here on the forum two years ago, but nothing has been done, probably because fixing it will be an enormous task of updating a lot of information in the databases. ------ SERIES TITLES Footnote produced by Logos in alleged SBL style: Mark L. Strauss, The Davidic Messiah in Luke–Acts: The Promise and Its Fulfillment

Yes, there are quite substantial differences in the new version 2 of the SBL style. A lot of information that was earlier inside the parenthesis (like series, editor, etc) now appears outside the parenthesis - somewhat similar to the Turabian style.

John Miller, thanks for asking a good question, and for making that useful list of SDA pre-pubs. Martin is the only one who can answer this question, but I guess a big part of the answer has to do with timing.

What makes this a particular difficult call to make - where does Jesus end and the narrator begin - is that Jesus in the Gospel of John often uses language very similar to what we find in the narrator's sections of the book (and similar to language in the first epistle of John) and maybe a bit different from the typical vocabulary, style and themes

Here is Week 5 on "Jesus and the Sabbath". The video is a lot longer than usual, since the Sabbath is important to Adventists... So it's less Logos and more Bible this week.

Roy Gane studied at Berkeley under the late Jacob Milgrom, who was considered one of the leading biblical scholars on Leviticus and the sanctuary.

Most pastors and Logos users won't take the step of making the quarterly into a Personal Book. It is a strategy just for the most devoted Logos fans... The best hope is that Faithlife eventually will start publishing the quarterly as a regular Logos book.

A lot of SDA pastors have come on board with Logos lately, so in agreement with Martin Weber I am making a series of 13 free video-tutorials about how to use Logos to go with the Sabbath School lessons for April-June 2015. So pick up some tips about the Gospel of Luke for your class this sabbath while learning Logos at the same time! The first video
