    Here's one possible way to do it…hopefully others will chime in with more ideas…

    I went to "Guides" and opened a new Sermon Starter Guide. I entered "Omnipresence of God" into the serach box, then selected "Presence of God" from the drop-down menu, since "Omnipresence of God" wasn't offered as a preaching theme.

    Then, I scrolled down to "Sermons" and, as you can see below, it appears the only sermon I have that has been tagged "Presence of God" is a sermon by John Wesley on the omnipresence of God. (My library is not extensive; hopefully your results include a sermon by Spurgeon.)

    A disadvantage of this method, if I understand correctly, is that Spurgeon's sermons mentioning God's omnipresence will only be found if they have been given the tag "Presence of God."

    Maria,

    Thank you so much for your rapid response. Almost as quickly as I posted I thought to go to the Passage Guide and enter a well-known verse, The 139th Psalm. It immediately yielded 15 sermons by Spurgeon, DA Carson, Piper, Keller and Stott. Other Passages, Jeremiah 23:24, yield more. Apparently, there are multiple ways to find sermons in the archives. After 22 years with Logos, I'm still constantly learning. Yet to try, "Presence of God."

    Thanks again for your help.

    Phil

    I did a books search for omnipresence and replaced All Books with author:Spurgeon (just click on All Books to change the collection you are searching). That gave me lots of great results.
