I recently purchased this book to do a study with my brother in law. There are so many typos it is hard to read. I’ll find a word like mdash or aif and think that’s strange so I compare to my hard copy and it’s not even a word in the book. Please proof read this book and provide an update.

    Welcome to the forums. I have added two tags - resources and bug to bring it to the attention of the appropriate Logos staff. FYI -Proof-reading is not the task of the electronic republisher but rather the responsibility of the original publisher who provides the electronic files for the electronic versions. This is especially true of Logos eBooks which are simply run through an automated process. When there are many errors Logos will either request a new electronic file or rerun the conversion process against the existing file — depending upon the source of the multiple errors.

    Welcome to the forums. It would be best to specifically report each typo as you come across it. Right click on the misspelled word and select "report typo".

    Detailed instructions can be found here.

    The Purpose Driven Life is a Logos edition, not an ebook.

    My apologies - this was my source of misinformation:

    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."

    So it's a duplicate!

    Remind me not to be so trusting …

    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."
