The Next Chapter in the EEC
Comments
-
I purchased the EEC back in 2011 when it was originally available. I just looked at my invoice and it was advertised as 43 volumes. Now it is advertised as 44 volumes. This is just more of a curiosity for me and not a major issue, but I wonder what change was made.

Are any new volumes scheduled for release soon?

I keep asking about releases in the next 18 months and not getting any replies.

Still no updated covers

Unless I am missing something, there hasn't been an update in over 6 months on what volumes are scheduled to be released next.
I understand that these things happen slowly, but I think that there would be less frustration if there was more communication.

Yes. Nine months and counting, if I counted correctly.

I think it is time for Logos to admit that this series has totally not been what it is suppose to have been and was promised to be. They need to give those who bought it before certain date a substantial credit for purchase of other materials. I bought this at the very beginning and cannot believe where this series stands. There comes a point where apologies ring hollow and corrective action needs to be taken.

Jude is missing its artwork for some reason
Yes, Jude and a handful of other volumes are missing artwork. We have artwork selected and the covers should be updated soon.
The old cover artwork still appears as the icons in the listing of the volumes I currently have in Logos. Only the Amos, Jonah, and Micah volume has the new artwork for its icon.Optimistically Egalitarian (Galatians 3:28)

At this rate I'll be 90 years old before it's complete. [8-|] On the other hand, at this rate I can read each volume as it's released, a goal I set but have not kept.Brad Bardin said:I think it is time for Logos to admit that this series has totally not been what it is suppose to have been and was promised to be.

I think the original stated projection for completion in the 2011 announcement when we all bought it for $699.99 was that it would take 7 years or so. At that time it could only be bought as a complete set, but later Logos made individual volumes available.

Don't worry about getting behind. I think you will have plenty of time to catch up. [:)]

Do we have any idea what the next volume will be released will be or when it will be available?

I imagine that someone does. We just haven't been told yet.[:(]

I, and I'm sure many others, also have this question. Faithlife, what is the latest status on the EEC?

I'm going to boldly guess that nothing will be released until at least 2023. Maybe 2024 or later. I have no evidence for that guess whatsoever beyond personally having no evidence to the contrary.

Every time I see a new posting to this page my heart sinks at the money I paid out with so little return all these years. And I am frustrated that FL is developing other exciting commentary series' (like Biblical Theology) with so little feedback on this one. I am running out of time to benefit from this purchase in my own working life. I wouldn't mind if FL called it a day on the series and gave us a refund for the volumes not completed (or even assigned yet). If FL is still passionate about this series then quarterly updates on where we are might keep the guilt and disappointment at bay!

I hear you, same here. :-(

I can’t say I’m on board with them cancelling the series, because I’ve found it to be excellent so far, and I would be very sad to see it discontinued when it’s barely been started. But I did not purchase the whole series in advance, and I can echo the other sentiments. I also wish they would be more transparent with details; based on the volumes I’ve read so far, it might be my favorite commentary series, and I find myself checking the forum every day for no other reason then to see if there is new information on the EEC.

If you subscribe to this thread, you can get email notifications when there are new posts and thus save yourself time on days when there aren't any.

The lack of progress and lack of communication in regard to this series is disappointing. But I would like to see it finished. I don’t regret signing up when it was first announced, I did not know then it would go the way it has gone. I hope FL are able to get it finished even if I have to wait another 10 years... just tell me what’s happening, even if there is nothing new to say. Just let us know you haven’t forgotten about it.

It's been a year since the original post and covers in my desktop still are not updated. But since it's been a year can we get Faiithlife's thoughts on where the EEC is? Please start a new thread when you do.

I shouldn't have to look at that. Faithlife changed the covers to EEC with new artwork and they should reflect on the desktop like the mobile device.

And you don't have to. Nor did I ever write that you had to.
What I did do was suggest that you consider doing something that can be done within a few minutes that might well help you achieve your goal. What you do with that suggestion is entirely up to you.

It's not a suggestion. Scroll up and Faithlife said the new artwork should be on the desktop.

Faithlife should totally give people who are tired of waiting around a refund or at least some store credit to purchase something else the actually exists. This is a really bad look for Faithlife.
