What does one do when you want to add this series to your library but some volumes are not working with the study guide and that is the purpose for getting them. So you will buy a series but you are unable to use them for what they are designed for in logos.

    @Lukas - when you say some volumes are not working - could you elaborate on what is not working. More detail could help other users try to reproduce the issue and give Logos a better idea of what said issue may or may not be.

    I think the issues is that these resources are tagged as monographs and do not populate with the various guides. However, there are a few ways to access these as you study the bible.

    1. create a collection of these resources.

    2. Include that collection in the Passage Guide

    3. Include that collection in the Cited By tool.

    When you are on a verse in the bible that is also in one of these Theme resources, it will show in that section of the Passage guide or Cited By tool if they are linked to the Bible.

    If this is not what you mean, then please post back.

    @Frank Sauer - the series that I have mentioned is a series that I am looking at purchasing. As it covers themes or topics. I do own one volume, and what I like about them is the fact that at the back is a study guide and then it allows you to answer the questions. But I have purchased a second volume but that volume did not work as the first one. Now the Logos support is asking me which volumes are not able to answer the questions into a notebook. But I am not willing to spend money one resources that is supposed to be Logos editions and then it does not work as it should. As I can get the same series in physical copy for the same price or sometimes cheaper. So how does one approach this problem with Logos.

    You noticed when you purchased these that they are monographs not Bible commentaries. If you go to the book's information panel you can see if it has a Bible reference index and/or a Preaching theme/topic index. Those indexes would control the behavior you are seeing. Give us the exact titles you are dealing with, exactly where you are seeing the difference, and we can probably explain it.

    Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."
