Gibson, David, and Jonathan Gibson, eds. From Heaven He Came and Sought Her: Definite Atonement in Historical, Biblical, Theological, and Pastoral Perspective. Wheaton, IL: Crossway, 2013.This book looks like a great fit for Logos.
Thanks! I've added it to my list of books to get. Keep 'em coming!
Great suggestion. It would be fantastic to have this in Logos.

Christian, is anyone of you product managers reviewing the generic Suggestions forum anymore now that there are all these denomination specific forums for requesting resources? Though I usually see positive responses from product managers saying great suggestion, I'll add that to my list" and so on, I never see such responses on the Suggestions forum. It gives us the impression that those suggestions are going into a black hole. There are times when it is not obvious which specific products forum a suggestion should go in (e.g., if it's Anabaptist, or broadly Evangelical, or Catholic, etc., where there are not specific product forums).
Could you see about getting someone on your team to give feedback on the Suggestions forum periodically so that we know it's worth our while continuing to use that forum for product suggestions? Or can you suggest some other way to ensure that our suggestions get heard?
Thanks!
Sure thing, Rosie. Thanks for the feedback. I will look into it.
Great! Thank you.
I am glad you are going to add this to your list, but what does this mean? Is it something you will be getting or trying to get....(I don't mean to sound rude) Just wondering if this is an indication that it's coming...
Hey, thanks for asking. No problem. Straightforward questions are always appreciated.
I keep a list of books I want to get into Logos. If they are under copyright, I request them from publisher relations who then work with the publishers to get them into Logos. If they are public domain, I research them to make sure I get the best edition, materials, and any other works that would be relevant to put together into a collection. Then I submit that through my other channels here to get it produced.
Unfortunately, there is no set timeline for when a resource gets requested to when it goes up on logos.com. But, I really do want to get as many quality resources as we can in the Reformed tradition and will try hard to push things along.
Thanks again so much for your input!
Can you comment on some of the other authors that have been mentioned in this forum? It would help if you just had a list that could be accessed of who you are working to get and who has been requested and denied for various reasons by other publishers.
Thanks, Christian! [Y]

Rosie, sorry to take so long to get back to you on this.
I did some digging and found out that the generic suggestions forum is not being owned by anyone at this point. Unfortunate, I know. I'm not sure when this will be resolved. In the mean time, the best thing to do is make suggestions via the respective denominational forums geared at the specific traditions/communities (i.e. Reformed, Lutheran, Anglican, etc...). If a resource does not clearly fall under one of those communities, the next best thing is to send suggestions to suggest@logos.com. This list is tracked by personal in publisher relations. They try to prioritize what gets produced by what is most recent, relevant, and most commonly requested. It is hard to pinpoint those things with the system we have in place at this point and we are beginning to see more and more the need for a better system. But, user suggestions are always valued and we appreciate the input.
I hope that answers your question. Sorry if it is not what you were hoping. We will continue to try to improve how we track and implement requests. Have a great Thanksgiving!
Christian
I just logged on to request this resource, too. Here's a recent review, if anyone else is interested:
http://thegospelcoalition.org/book-reviews/review/from_heaven_he_came_and_sought_her_duesing
From Heaven He Came and Sought Her: Definite Atonement in Historical, Biblical, Theological, and Pastoral Perspective.
I just ordered my paper copy from Westminster.
Will be looking forward to the Logos version, when it becomes available.
Would love to have this in Logos... yet, I'm still waiting for Kingdom Through Covenant to appear in Logos format
Yes[Y] This would be a wonderful book on Logos.
Thanks
It's in the works now. Keep an eye out for it on pre-pub. Follow Logos Reformed on Facebook and Twitter for alerts.
