    If I remember correctly there was some generous donor that made it possible.

    "DTS is underwriting this program through donor generosity and a small portion of the students’ technology fee."

    Hello everyone and God Bless.

    Before I get started, being new to Logos and the Faithlife community I have been reading a lot of posts in the Forums and have noticed many un-Christian like comments being said back and forth. I would like to remind everyone we are Christians first, customers second.

    I have the academic program discount. I am thankful that they offer it because it allowed me to get to a larger base package with more resources that makes homework and study much easier and more fruitful. I consider this discount to be a gift, and not an entitlement owed to me. I have contacted Faithlife's customer service a couple times concerning products, my discounts, and how best to meet my needs and the sales representatives always found a way to both meet my desires and work within his/her limitations.

    Secondly, Faithlife is still a business that needs to make money. I believe it is not my concern how much money should they make; that belongs to the ownership and God. I do not know what the profits are used for or what intentions God has with this company, but it is obvious that they are helping tremendously by assisting in peoples ability to study and learn God's Word. Something this country and Christianity needs badly these days. We are all stewards of God's money. It is up to you to make good choices.

    Like everyone else, I would love to get as many deals as I can (it keeps the wife happy), but that must be tempered with the knowledge that a business is still a business and needs to make a profit.

    So thank you Faithlife for the academic discount and for the other discounts and free resources you offer.

    Sounds like a combination of a generous donor and an academic administration that values 21st century tools, methodology, and pedagogy, none of which compromise the theology and doctrine of any teaching.
