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.

The slow disappearance of sparklines in revised Factbook/Guide-to-Factbook conversion is a serious loss of functionality. It allowed one to scan the sparkline to see if a particular entry was likely to be useful for your current studies. You could see at a glance its relevance to gospels, Torah, history, apocrypha … in a…
I would find it more useful if rather than a simple count of results (which in truth I don't use) the section would show nnn lemmas in nnn results which I would use to determine how useful to me digging into the original language would be. (The more duplication of lemmas the more apt I am to muddle through it.)
I use Logos primarily for study, but there are times I'll read an entire book. It'd be awesome if there was an integration with Goodreads.com that would allow us to indicate books we're currently reading and those we've finished during the year.
I suggest the answer column be removed from beside the prayer, and moved to the bottom. It takes up a lot of unnecessary space which makes long p;rayers a lot of unnessary scolling.
Integrate Logos with ReadWise (www.ReadWise.io), a service to help readers curate and review their digital highlights. ReadWise was recently endorsed by Tim Challies, and their website says they have thousands of users. I've just begun using the service, but to collect my highlights from Logos alongside my other electronic…
