Logos has the Sermon Builder, it would be awesome to have a Liturgy Builder!
It would be great to add hymnals and other worship resources, track the use of Scripture uses in worship, and generally track the liturgies of a church.
Please add!
Do you mean something like Source and Summit? (I'm assuming I'm not violating forum guidelines with this hyperlink because currently Logos/Verbum offers nothing like this)
I don't know how a Liturgy Builder would work. Per the above, looks like a crossover of Proclaim and a Homily Builder.
But it'd do wonders for marketing Logos (and Verbum) to a wider audience.
I think a Liturgy Builder would be awesome. It would widen the audience a lot. Something like a formular where you fill in the Songs, important parts of the Litrugy, Readings are filled in automatically according to the day or can be manually changed, connected to the Lectionary, to the Roman Missal and liturgical ressources like for the ""Penitential Act" (is this correct?), intercessions, etc. When you click on Intercessions another window opens for you to type in a text or add a text from your Library. It automatically creats printouts with readable fonts for reading publically. Ai supported working. If you type in a search word, a scripture or a subject, a sermon title and it would give out songs, intercessions, Kyries, Alleluias, "Penitential Acts", stories, illustrations, texts, Eucharistic Prayers, Prayer over the people from the Missale, Blessings, etc. Connected to the
That's pretty much what Source and Summit does, which I linked above. I believe it even fills in the proper antiphons for the day (or the feast), and suggests musical arrangements for those antiphons, in case you want to use the propers instead of hymns.
If Verbum had something like this, it would simply be unbeatable with its ability to connect resources/patristics/homilies/biblical commentaries/hymnals/missals to the liturgy builder tool.
I mean, with Source and Summit, you can even choose the musical arrangements of the Mass that you would like to use. Want to use Missa de Angelis? Or Mass VI? Or the chant from the Roman Missal? You can simply paste those into your program, and create a liturgy aid with hymns, antiphons, scripture readings, the creed, etc., and print it out for your large parish to follow along with. Or keep it digital and send it out with FlockNote or whatever.
I use layouts extensively. I have at times wanted to add a specific book or Bible to all my layouts at once. It would be convenient to not have to open, edit, and then save every layout induvidually to accomplish this.
Please allow us to access, read, search, etc. our personal (user-created) books on the mobile app.
When I load from layout, the title bar of the book, along with all the tools tabs, does not show. In order to get it going again I have to close Logos and reopen. I'm using Logos for Mac.
When using Bible Book Explorer — the colorful wheel that shows interrelated Old and New testament verses = and When looking at say the OT texts used in a book - say Matthew - When you select Psalms, the Matthew texts which are related to Psalms are revealed — but there is no help in knowing what Psalm reference to which…
As for now, the translation from Latin PBs isn't supported by Logos. I'd be happy to have this function. Maybe you would vote for it, too.
