A shout out to Logos Bible software

As a new user to Logos Bible software, i am amazed by its power and depth of Bible study it offers. Sure, it has bugs that need to be worked out (what large software package doesn't?), but Logos beats the previous Bible study program I used by miles. Watching the videos has given me greater insight on how to use the program, enabling me to get the most out of my Bible study time, thereby drawing closer to God. That is what it is all about after all in my humble opinion.

Sincere apologies. My happiness was a little over the top.

By your grace, let me try again. [Y]

I was about to make the switch but realised just in time that I don't have enough memory on the Mac for it to work properly. Will be upgrading to iMac later this year so will re-visit again.

I downloaded the basic free verion (of Logos) to try it out beforehand. I'd read various articles about Logos being only for the serious student, the professional minister, the academic, not for those who 'don't want to do the hardwork' of research etc. Perhaps this is cost justification but I can tell you using 'search and find' in Logos is far easier than any other software I've used. It's like having your own assistants fetch all the relevant books and articles from the library and lay them out for you in a logical order, clearly marked and referenced. And you've got time to get a cup of tea whilst their doing all the hard work!

So I would say Logos suits the 'non-professional' in a way the more general bible software cannot: by making the search for answers and information much less onerours, time-consuming and appealing!

Cost is an issue, of course. Particularly as there seems a lot of disgruntled Logos users at the bugs, issues and things it cannot do (for the price paid). But, as you say, there isn't a programme around that doesn't have issues.

Keep Smiling 4 Jesus :)

Welcome [:D]

A cost effective upgrade (from Basic) is => Logos 8 Fundamentals (50 % discount for new users), which enables <Person ***> searching along with expanding library (with Permanent licenses that reduce dynamic price of subsequent upgrades).

Keep Smiling [:)]
