does anybody know anything about the Logos Daily Circle? is it worth the subscription cost? is there any demo videos? I'd like to see the training videos and how they compare to Danny Zacarias or Morris Proctors videos.
Welcome to the forums. It is launching tomorrow IIRC - any review at this point would be pure speculation. It also is not an official FL product.
Thanks, joined today. Hopeful that it becomes a vibrant community.
thank you for the welcome. i was under the impression that the circle was a faithlife product. the FB group is ran by faithlife and they have posted an invitation to the circle. so is morris proctors site the closest thing to official logos step-by-step training? is this community or forum then the only official forum?
There are some official support groups on www.faithlife.com too, but this one is the most active official forum by far.
the FB group is ran by faithlife and they have posted an invitation to the circle.
I don't believe that to be the case. Nothing on the FB page indicates to me that it is run by FL. However:
i was under the impression that the circle was a faithlife product.
I sought clarification: The group is not directly affiliated with FL. However, the owner/creator of "Logos Daily" is now employed by FL, but he verified that "Logos Daily" is a side gig and still unofficially related to FL. Confusing, I know.
so is morris proctors site the closest thing to official logos step-by-step training?
He is still, as far as I know, the "official trainer." His company, however, is not owned and run by FL.
is this community or forum then the only official forum?
These are the FL forums, owned by FL itself. It is largely crowdsourced user support. FL also owns https://faithlife.com (a social media type site).
I have been using it since it started. I work in I.T. and pastor a home fellowship. I have found the Circle to be helpful and refreshing.
The groups have had some good conversations. The people on it have all been encouraging one another - it's a healthy atmosphere. People jump in to help one another.
Over the past few days I have been working through the teaching videos. They are detailed but not excessively lengthy. I have not only learned what was taught but used those things to learn things that were not taught.
When I have questioned something about a certain video I have received a response. There is a more personal feel to the Circle.
The upcoming book reading club looks promising.
I questioned if I was going to get my moneys worth from the site. After spend some time on it I can say yes I will.
I don't view the Circle as just another platform. These guys are in it for ministry. They love the Lord and want to help people. The few dollars it costs will help pay for the platform and hopefully throw some money at the coaches for the time they are investing. I don't mind spending $100 a year to support the vision. There's a 2 month free trial so there's really nothing to lose by trying it.
Jason is doing a live demo tonight and sharing his vision, if you can I would invest the 30 minutes to hear his heart.
Apparently, there's a YouTube demo at 6pm Eastern: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cW1P4njXy7w
Just under 45min from now.
QUESTION:
ANSWER:
So glad you asked. There are MANY reasons to join Logos Daily Circle:
1. They are FREE
2. They are the BEST help group I have found so far for Logos Bible Software
3. They have eight sub-groups and two Premium groups within the Circle. Sounds like a lot but don’t let that stop you from joining each of the groups. Some of these groups were on another social media platform but it was slowly moving away from their vision to serve the Lord by serving and helping one another in a common goal. Please join the free groups so you can gain full advantage of what they have to offer in this community we call the Circle. We are offering the two Premium groups for two months FREE of you join by September 9.
4. Logos Daily Circle has many training videos and their subscription price (for the two Premium groups) is lower than the two you mentioned.
5. You get TWO MONTHS FREE to decide if you like the Premium groups.
6. The other sub-groups are completely free and loaded with helpful, insights into using Logos Bible Software.
7. Personally, I like Moe a lot and I maintain a subscription to MPSeminars; BUT, I found this group to be easier to comprehend with shorter, to-the-point training videos. I decided their work and passion to serve was well worth the small INVESTMENT for what they have to offer.
Again – the platform is FREE except the two top tiers, both of which are worth it.
Check them out and remember – sign up and join by September 9, for the TWO FREE MONTHS (top tier).Check this link for detailed info or PM me directly.

Here are the free groups that only a fraction of members have joined:
Some of these groups were on another social media platform but it was slowly moving away from our vision to serve the Lord — we can now more effectively help one another in a common goal.
this makes a bit of sense I guess. I figured because the owner was the president of social media for logos that this new site was a logos site. also the group says faithlife in the name. i know the Facebook group has Been heavy on the advertising for the group in the post ands especially on the comments With the links to the circle Just about every comment has someone saying click this link to sign up for a free trial. I just didn’t know how trustworthy it all is to give my credit card info via some random long link but if there is that bit of connection to faithlife I am sure it is not a scam
thanks for the infomercial david I assume you work for this company? i have to be honest your Comment has turned me off to it more than anything. whats with the urgency and gorilla marketing i have been seeing everywhere iwith it something does not sit right. It feels like popups in the 2000s saying free trip to Belize click here.
Hello, I am an active user of the new social platform. I am pretty versed in Logos so I cannot speak of the training videos yet, but my main reason for joining was the ability to have a community that has a similar focus as I do on learning more daily. With Facebook getting more and more heavy on censorship it was clear that something needed to be created in order to have a space where everyone can discuss theology and not worry about getting marked down. What I have enjoyed most is the community and being able to discuss theology openly no matter what (school of thought) we adhere to while also having a wide variety of members from casual study to biblical scholars.

Sooner rather than later is actually to your advantage. They broke away from the toxic FB platform and are a great blessing to all who join. It is to help one another learn and grow with Logos Bible Software.
Very informative reply Tim Kuhn.
Thanks for the post.
I frequently visit here at Faithlife Forums looking for answers. I also have an MPSeminars subscription and I could listen to Morris Proctor all day, and I sometimes have. I recently subscribed to the Logos Daily Circle and I like, and benefit from them all.
The Circle has a ‘social media vibe’ without the baggage. (I quit Facebook years ago.) I think it’s good to have options and variety. The Circle site seems to be more personal, I guess that’s the social media angle to it. You can learn a lot there without paying. For the cost of subscribing you have direct access to people who are actively coaching others in the use of the software. So far they appear to be really interested in helping me push the envelope in my getting practical, real world, benefit from Logos. I had Logos Bible Software for a while before I realised the power of of it, and I think there are many others in that boat.
I think the real attraction for me is the social media type access, it is more conversational. Some people might not like that, so fortunately there are other places like here ,and MPSeminars, and a plethora of other places where people are talking about Logos.
I am happy there are so many places because I really want to see more people hear about Logos and start using. I really want to see Logos/Faithlife go from strength to strength. I am still regularly mind blown about what Logos can do. If it weren’t true it would be ridiculous. I can’t speak about Danny Z, but the difference in video, when compared to Morris P, is in style. Morris‘s videos are very manicured and professional, at the circle its very social media/personal style/ of the moment. I think it really cuts through to learning about what you are asking about. Don’t get me wrong I don’t think I can say one is better than the other, I am not saying that. MPSeminars and Faithlife Forum are great. Variety is great for learning.
And I’m not getting paid by the daily circle, I’m paying them, they should be here talking about me!

Quiet frankly, Facebook is not that toxic, people are toxic not the platform. The toxic attitude I received was from certain members. Most recently some guy telling me I was lost because I refused to discuss politics with him 😂
Anyway, Logos-circle is a good group, but for the founders is a business opportunity, so there’s always that motivation behind it (nothing wrong with it). We all want a piece of the pie, don’t we? 😁
Maybe I should start charging people for Spanish Logos training too 😂

Actually, you laugh but maybe you really should. Why not if there's a need?
I was under the assumption that Faithlife had created Circle to replace Facebook, and that transitioning was eventually mandatory. No matter how great Circle might be, I feel tricked. I was feeling upset with Faithlife, thinking they were replacing a free service with a subscription. I was despairing of how much more that I must pay to Failthlife to keep using what I have already paid for. I was not even sure if Circle was replacing this forum.
I am glad to know that I can just unsubscribe and ignore Circle. I did not know that was an option. I have been so busy with school that I have not had time to fully investigate what Is happening. All the while, my email inbox is full of warnings. I was feeling anxious that I would be forced to choose between something I did not want or something worse.
I am not the brightest person here, and I have not been investing the time into Faithlife products that I did in the past, but I am not a total idiot. Yet, I fell for this. I cannot be the only one. I wonder how much this might have hurt Faithlife's reputation.

While i did not believe that Circle/Logos Bible Tips and Tricks | Faithlife was part of Faithlife, the site's use of Faithlife's name and logos creating easy confusion has been a real turn-off for me. It represents business practices outside my personal sense of ethics. I have been surprised that Faithlife has not objected.

It seem par for the course for this guy. Back when I was called, "Brave Daily" there were a lot of heavy-handed tactics. He added me to one of his groups without my permission, for instance. It is all a way to get commissions on links he puts up.I won't join this other thing - even the free side - for this reason alone.
I am part of other groups on FB that are there just to help folks out and no agenda other than that; no one makes any money.

Just a relaxing Saturday, but I guess you won't be getting a free mug!
But I agree with your thoughts; I'm reminded of the disciples getting improperly excited there were others teaching 'Jesus'. And absent free mugs, I'd assume the more the better, for Faithlife.
