M’Cheyne Bible Reading Plan - Order or readings
Hi,
Does anyone have a solution for me. The M’Cheyne bible reading plan in Logos does not have the correct sequential reading order. The 4 passages have been separated into 2 family and 2 private readings.
For example:
M’Cheyne’s reading plan for 1 Jan:
Gen 1, Matt 1, Ezra 1, Acts 1
Logos’ M’Cheyne reading plan for 1 Jan:
Gen 1, Ezra 1, Matt 1, Acts 1
It may not be a problem for those who read the 4 passages in 1 day, but the plan is designed to have its first 2 passages as a family reading and last 2 as a private reading, and can be divided so that the plan be used over 2 years.
Apart from going back to clicking the books via another tab of reading plan, is there a place where I can download the plan in correct order?
Cheers
David

May I recommend DA Carson's For the Love of God devotional if you are reading the MCheyne's Reading Plan. It is based on this plan and is very good.

How do you set Carson's book(s) as a reading plan? When I tried it did not line up with the dates. I could not see anything in wiki. Perhaps you don't set it this way but read as a normal book.
As a "calendar devotional" it is already setup with dates.

Ok thanks but that was easier said than done. I wasn't aware of this type of resource. However having reviewed some training videos I think I have it sorted. When I looked at my homepage there are a number (at least 5 ) of 'devotionals'. Very nice but I never set them up. The problem now is trying to remove them. I have removed them from my preferred resources but they still show on the homepage. Any suggestions?
I should add I am only an occasional user of the software because I find issues (like this) that are not easily solved. Probably my own fault from not preserving but I do not find Logos intuitive like other software (not bible software). I have set a goal of trying to do more this year with it. Using devotions is hopefully part of that.
Thanks in anticipation.

Hi David,
In Logos 8, the M’Cheyne plan has the Family readings as the first two readings, and the Private readings are the last two. Problem solved. The plan is public domain, so figuring out which reading to read shouldn't be difficult.
An excellent companion to the plan is a two volume devotional by D.A. Carson called For the Love of God. Vol. 1 covers the Family readings, and Vol. 2 covers the Private readings. It's available in Logos, and also in PDF from TGC.org if you search for the title and look for an announcement by Justin Taylor. As always the Logos version is more useful.
Happy reading,

Hi Skip,
Thanks for replying. Please have a look at my two screenshots. Is there something wrong with my version of Logos reading plan?
thanks

It appears to be so. See here:
Can you provide more details about how your plan was created? Which specific versions of which apps? Which specific operating systems?

I created it on my iPad Pro 2018, it runs Logos version 8.0.8.0005
Okay I figured it out.
It seems to be an issue related to the iOS Logos app. If I generated a M'Cheyne reading plan on iOS app, it will be the incorrect order of reading.
I tried generating on my desktop Logos and get the correct one.
