Logos Now and NT156

Logos Now currently includes NT156 which is a resource it seems Logos often uses as a sample, and is one of the cheaper Mobile Ed courses. The members page gives the impression this addition is not permanent. Has the Mobile ed course included been switched in the past? Does Faithlife give advance warning when this happens? I like the way this is handled with the Mobile Ed subscription, with it both being said clearly when a course is pulled, and when it will come back.

Hi Johan

If you look at this link it will show you history of the monthly access to past resources.

They have not turned off access to this resource yet, and we had this for the month of Aug.

But access to this looks like it may not be a one month only thing.

Does this mean this resource was new in August?

I think it was that is when I had access to it.

I made a layout for the resource for study on Aug 9th.

[quote]Advance your theological education without leaving home. Logos Now members get access to select Mobile Ed content at no extra cost! Currently members can take Mobile Ed: NT156 The Significance of the Resurrection—featuring Douglas J. Moo, Ben Witherington, Elyse Fitzpatrick, Darrell L. Bock, and other scholars. This course is automatically added to your library as part of a Logos Now membership.

If I remember correctly, that course merely consists of excerpts from other courses.

Jack, by permanent do you mean as in "a permanent addition to our libraries"? To me it seems like the text leaves some room for interpretation in this regard, but it seems pretty clear that other courses will be available later.

Sorry! I think I found the answer to my own question.

Would still be nice to know a little bit more about the timeline here though.

Seems that I was mistaken—Sorry for the misinformation.

No worries Jack, I appreciate you taking the time. I feel, however that the most natural interpretation of the phrase "added to your library" were yours and wish Logos in this case as well could be clearer that it is temporary. To me it just seemed a bit too good to be true:-)

So, Faithlife people, could you comment on the timeline here. How often do you plan to switch the Mobile ed course in LN? When you switch courses, how long in advance will you warn us.

Those who has the Mobile Ed subscription get a 2 week warning. It also seems like you are very clear on when a course can be expected back, which is a good thing.

Thanks! Maybe it's something I'm missing, but I can't see the answers to my concrete questions on that page, which has more general info on the inclusion of a course along with info on the current course offered

Sorry for the delay.

The Mobile Ed course will be switched out at the end of the year. I've updated www.logos.com/now-members to reflect that.

Thank you for your reply, a bit late, yes, but exactly the kind of reply I was hoping for. Does this mean these courses will be switched fairly regularly in the future as well (fairly regularly, every 6 months - every year.)

Now I guess I better get started on that course :-)
