I'm starting a dive into Church History. Shortly after v10 became available I viewed Mark Barnes' captioned video. Can someone help me find it again?
Thanks.
Phil
This one?

Thanks, Kiya;
Excellent, precise, quick response. I'm good to go!
How set up two Factbooks and set one to send hyperlinks here. There is no option in Factbook to do so.
I am using Logos 10.1.0.0056
In Mark's video - one fact stayed open and another fact book opened up when he clicked a reference.
Thanks, Kiya; Excellent, precise, quick response. I'm good to go! Phil
Mark should definitely do more videos like this on other features or resources. (Mark if you're reading this, more videos like this please.)
I don't see that. Throughout nearly all of the video, Mark had Church History Themes open on the left, which is a resource, at https://ref.ly/logosres/flchthms?hw=Trinitarian+Controversies+Are+Settled and the links from there opened Factbook on the right.
Did I miss something? Please give a timestamp or screenshot
He opened the church history resource which Factbook builds on, not another Factbook.
At the end of Mark's video he referrences "The Essential Lexham Dictionary of Church History." Mark indicates that this volume is avaiable in most base packages. I own Logos 10 Silver. I can not find this resource. Have searched my Library, the Store, and the Logos Web page. Is it available?
Any help appreciated.
Did you purchase the library only or the library + features? It is sold with the features - Silver or Full. It is in my library.
And it is described here - https://www.logos.com/lexham-dictionary-church-history

Hi Phil, here is a link to the webpage for this item:
https://www.logos.com/product/231400/the-essential-lexham-dictionary-of-church-history
It is contained as a part of the Silver Feature Set. As stated on the webpage it is under development, so more articles will be added over time. You should be able to see what's available by searching for it in your library.
For me.... one of the things that I find a bit annoying about the way Logos looks at church history... is that Logos looks at it with a biased eye. By that I mean... (and I hope I can be proven wrong)... is that Logos biases church history with a Catholic bias.
When I follow something like Mark Barnes video... and I do appreciate the video.... I find that the original church of 33 AD is propertied to have turned into the Catholic Church... That's a huge bias.
What am I missing?
I'm not sure what you are expecting in the first few centuries with the reformation coming along a lot later.
Please clarify.

About 1500 years if you don't count the Celtic Cult or the various orthodox lots.
have turned into the Catholic Church... That's a huge bias.
Er ... ah ... the first 1000 years or so, there was no distinction between the Eastern Orthodox and Catholic so it would be hard to have a Catholic bias, only a western bias. I would have said that Faithlife reflects a Western post-Reformation bias as evidenced by what is NOT included in the Catholic base packages. Can you provide any ancient historical texts (full, fragmentary, referenced) to support your bias claim?
I can provide only the evidence as it is.....
1. “And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it.” (Matthew 16:18)
2. That church was before any Catholic Church was..... and that promise Jesus made was not broken.
3. Jesus had has never been proven to be a liar.
That's the facts....
True
And off it went into various bits that came together as community. Pretty much what we know as Roman Catholic community, Orthodox community, Celtic community and, lets not forget, the Heretical communities.
In the west Roman Catholic was pretty much, as HJ pointed out, universal. It was just the way Jesus chose to work.
But we (that's the royal 'we' BTW) would love to find some documents that detail the progress of the Protestent Church it the millennia before America was there.
In the west Roman Catholic was pretty much, as HJ pointed out, universal.
Remember the last Arian kings of Europe are circa 7th century. The distinction usually being given as Arian vs. Nicene Christianity. The non-Trinitarian/non-Nicene thread of theology was reinvigorated at the time of the Reformation. Just want to resist the tendency of some people to think of a more homogenous theology than technology permitted.
Or at an even more basic level, trace the history of concepts that separate the Protestant Church from the Catholic Church e.g. individual vs. corporate, written vs. oral . . .
May I break back in here.
I received explicit responses from Kiyah, MJ, Graham and Mitch about a relatively straight forth question; plus information about a resource I wanted but couldn't find. I got a perfect answer to my original question; plus how to find the resourse, acquire it, more about its value, how it is used and its "in progress" nature, and an independent web page about it.
MJ and Graham are old friends - fountains of information. Kiyah and Mitch are new to me. I feel so fortunate, so welcomed into this vital, committed community. Mitch opened his response with, "Hi, Phil."
Thank all of you - these four plus the entire forum - for your so valuable involvement with my personal journey.
Stay safe.

Meaning no disrespect... but showing a problem I have.... Now think on this and help me out.... I have searched and searched and searched... and I have not found proving information for 30 AD until about 300 AD.... (I am still searching...)
And herein is my problem....(being the logical person that I am)...
If my previous post is true... which I contend it is.... then....
1. If the church that Jesus built..."changed into something else" ... then it would not be the same church that Jesus started and Jesus would be a liar... Right?
2. If the church that Jesus built did change and is not the same as the one that Jesus built... then it follows that it is "man made" and not "God made".
3.If Jesus is ever found to be a liar, even once, (which I don't think will happen) ..then the Bible is completely false and we should not follow it.
I will not keep on with this... but it is a dilemma that I find myself going in circles with...
Edit: But that is why it bothers me for Logos to have any bias at all.
Empty your mind of preconceived notions of church history and read
Yes, that is an incomplete reading list - Justo and McGinn should also be in it - but remember how Harding College built its reputation in the mid-20th century. Then please stop making theological statements such as "change into something else" without providing a tie to Logos software.
