Lifeguide Bible Studies (IVP)
A friend of mine just had a book published in this series, and it made me wonder whether Logos carries any of them yet, so that I could suggest you add hers. Lo and behold, I found out you don't have any of them yet. It's high time you add them. They've been a great long-running series, with new titles still coming out. Lots of well-respected authors. Great for small groups to use. And they'd be very helpful to have in Logos format with all the Scripture references easy to follow-up on in the rest of your Library, and with fill-in fields for answers.

Would be nice to see them in Logos. Have been heavily entrenched in bible software provided by a different vendor for a long time so wonder if there is an exclusive arrangement with them. But hope not.

Isn't this a series that was in the old Lesson software?

I did not know that. Turns out you can get ALL the OT and NT volumes of this series (total of 35) from that other vendor for $39.95. I dare Logos to match that price if they ever manage to get the rights for this series. I doubt they would. But I'd still pay perhaps almost twice that much to have these in Logos.

What was the old "Lesson" software? Was it a Logos thing? It must have been during the era that I wasn't using Logos much, as I've been a Logos owner from before it was even established a company (when Bob and his friend/co-founder Kiernon were just working on this project in their spare time while employed at Microsoft), but I don't remember this.

LesssonBuilder was a Logos product that Mo was still selling on the side when L4 was released. I think I still have it on a XP machine. Its one of those products that was close to what the market wanted but rather than perfecting it, it was dropped. At least that's my memory of it; Bob likely has a very different version

The other software company had a similar lesson maker product that made it to version 8 but no longer appears to be available. If that's the case it's only a fairly recent demise (last few years). Handouts were supposed to be the new Lesson Builder On the fly, but failed badly in meeting users needs.

Hi Rosie,
in which other software is it available? I haven't found it... I really would love to use it digitally. It's sad that it is not available in Logos...

Marc, these (at least a bundle of them) are available in a competing Bible study software, Wordsearch. Years ago IVP had its own stand-alone program in which some of these titles were available. It is long gone, just as the Logos Lesson Builder software mentioned here is gone.
If you just want the text without the option to fill anything in, there are ways to convert .pfds into MS Word .docx files that can be imported into Logos via the Personal Book Builder tool. (IVP offers .pdfs of at least some of these books.) They would not be tagged (unless you add the tagging in MS Word) so would have limited functionality, but you could read, annotate, and highlight them.
Otherwise it seems Wordsearch is the only other option.

WORDsearch 11 has a built-in LESSONmaker module.

Welcome to the forums. The Sermon editor is proving to work decently as a lesson builder in Logos/Verbum for me. I had owned the old Logos Lesson building product.

In case you missed it, we have the LifeGuide Bible Studies on Pre-Pub.

Phil,
What happens to the license for a number of these that were purchased from Logos as addon's to the old Lesson program?

A bit too pricey for me even on prepub.

Our license for use in Lesson Builder didn't carry over to Logos, so we have a new contract and license for that. While we aren't able to offer dynamic pricing if you owned them in Lesson Builder, we might be able to do something special for you if you want to reach out.

The current price works out to be $2.89 each for the 138 volumes. The average volume on Amazon costs ~$8, so it's a pretty significant discount. But I understand that $400 is a lot of money. We do have smaller collections that might be of interest if you want to try some of the content without committing to the full $400.

Phil,
Thanks, I will do that.
Best,
