I just wanted to express my appreciation to Faithlife for making the L7 Expansion Bundles available.
I was able to pick up some very useful resources at a price I was happy with.
Thanks, Graham

I will be very grateful for those tomorrow, once I've added the December free book +1 (which might or might not affect dynamic pricing...) [:D]
I'm really impressed with the prices. There are a few resources I've wanted for a while that are way cheaper for me in these collections than they are as individual resources, quite aside from the extra goodies.
Annoyingly (and this is just my poor financial planning), I think I'm probably gonna have to miss the extra discount period, given Christmas expenses and whatnot, but they're still well worthwhile for me.
Yes, thanks are in order. I can see why it took so long to compile these bundles.
I'm still deciding which ones to get. Would you mind sharing which bundles you ended up getting and which resources you appreciated the most?

I went with three of the bundles:
In the Gospel bundle I was particularly interested in:
I was also interested in "Making disciples Jesus' way" but this was the only resource in XL that I wanted so was cheaper for me to buy that resource separately
In Pauline I was interested in:
In Theology:
It was this last one that I hesitated over most but eventually decided it was worth it for me.
I went with three of the bundles: Gospel L Pauline XL Theology XL
Thanks for sharing. I appreciate hearing your reasoning as I consider what will suit me best.
I bought:
I didn't get that many volumes (20, perhaps?), but it only cost $136.46.
The only books I've added straight to my reading list are:
From that perspective, the Crossway Top Authors' bundle (which cost me $102.45 for about 20 volumes) was much better immediate value. From that I've added the following to my reading list:
To be fair the bundles included some useful reference material, including Koester's Introduction to the NT and several volumes of Augustine and Irenaeus. I also think I'll find the Steve Gallagher collection useful.
I went with one: Jewish Studies Library Expansion, M
8 of the books were new to me and in 6 of them I find interesting titles, others may do also.
I have had Talmud already for some years, but I find it a bit difficult to read, maybe the the book "Swimming in the Sea of Talmud" will help [:)]
For me, it will be the Apologetics XL bundle, and I'd want to read from cover to cover (although not likely to happen considering the number and size of resources):
