SEAN, KYLE: Data error of semons with audience labeled as speaker
In all these results, the Synod of Bishops is the audience not the speaker ... I suspect the error goes far beyond the single Preaching Theme I was addressing.

Bug: 9.10 Beta 2 Sermon Builder Refreshing
While working in the sermon builder, the window seems to be refreshing or something, as it would suddenly make my curser go to the top and the slides will refresh (from white to black as they do when you first include a slide). It happens about every minute or two.
Search for "Lord" finds "LORD" when Match Case option selected
Why does a search for "Lord" find "LORD" when the Match Case option selected? I am searching the NASB 1995 with Match Case selected. It appears that Logos treats a search for "LORD" in the Old Testament not as all capitals, but as if it were Lord, but with a different font or character attribute. But I suspect most users…

Pressing the lowercase 'f' key while writing in notes causes the window to toggle between ma
I'm using release 9.9.0.0007 of Logos and Monterey 12.0.1 on an M1 MacBook Pro from 2020. When typing in notes, whenever I type a lowercase 'f' the window toggles between maximized or not.

Thompson Chain Reference Bible Missing
Wen my files were transferred from WS to Faithlife, I received all books except the Thompson Chain Reference Study Bible. It was scheduled for down load but just suddenly disappeared. Support states this particular bible doesn't exist. Did anyone else transfer a TCRSB from Wordsearch?
Thompson Chain Reference
As a former WS user I had the Thompson Chain Reference in its entirety placed in my Logos account. The marginal notes (TCMN) had been working normally until recently. I am on Logos 9.9 b2 and today when I tried to access the TCMN it no longer works normally. When you hover over a marginal number you would normally get a…

BUG: The Basic Search of Factbook gives BS results - ignores logical operators, quotation marks

I hate it when I have to actually seriously use Logos/Verbum ... it always…
Logos for the Mac with Universal Build
Anyone know when we can expect a build for the Mac that supports Apple Silicon? These are called Universal apps on the Mac and should give a speed boost, though perhaps most of the speed boost will be from the higher memory bandwidths and SSD speeds—benefitting both Universal and Intel builds. I am not in the Logos Desktop…

ANDREW: October 2021 is a very unusual month
I just noticed that October 2021 has a first in my lifetime occurrence -- Tuesday falling on Oct 5 and again on Oct 7. I have never seen two Tuesdays so close together. Given my age, I am not sure this compacting of time is advantageous.

SLIDES getting added back when sermon is reopened
Beta 2 is pretty smooth. I have noticed when I have to reopen a document (sermon), which I have had to do several times - as some of them seem to freeze up, when opened again the file often ADDS the preformatted slide (which I had already deleted and replaced with my own). So, I have 2 slides where I should only have one…
DARK MODE - yellow highlighting in Sermon Builder needs to be tweaked
I appreciate being able to use DARK MODE, but notice a discrepancy between YELLOW HIGHLIGHTING between Scripture, commentaries (which look good) and SERMON BUILDING (which doesn't look good - hard to read in dark mode). Can we get this changed soon to match the good looking yellow highlighting in the others? Thanks much.

Beyond Rituals: How Liturgy Shapes Ethics
To many, an emphasis on liturgy might seem to be more of a liability than a support for ethics. Admittedly, the relationship between liturgy and ethics can easily be framed negatively. Citing passages from the prophets such as Amos 5 or Isaiah 1, where God declares his displeasure in rituals performed by unjust, oppressive, idolatrous, and otherwise unfaithful worshipers, liturgy might be thought of as empty form or mere motions, too often masking hard hearts and unjust hands.
Is the Creation Story Literal? | Vern Poythress on Genesis 1:1–2:3
How should we understand the Bible’s Creation story in Genesis 1? In this episode of What in the Word?, Kirk E. Miller is joined by Vern Poythress to explore the genre, interpretation, and theological intent of Genesis 1:1–2:3. They discuss various interpretive models—such as literal 24-hour days, the literary framework view, day age theory, and more—while addressing questions of history, science, and the meaning of the days of creation. Tune in as we reflect deeply on how Scripture portrays God as the sovereign, wise, and beneficent Creator.
What Is Nestorianism? The Theotokos Debate Explained
Nestorianism is an ancient heresy that speaks about Christ as if he is two persons instead of one, that is, the one Lord Jesus Christ. The flashpoint in the debate over Nestorianism was Nestorius’s denial that mary bore God in her womb and thus was theotokos, God-bearer. The councils of Ephesus and Chalcedon in 431 and 451 formally condemned Nestorianism.
