In a course, where do I find the list of textbooks and readings ... I thought there were notes that one downloads but I down see them.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    Hi, MJ, I was really hoping that one of the MVPs would have responded by now as I judge myself as no expert in this area, but here goes. Using the Courses tool open the course you are interested in; I will use NT305 as a case in point. It should open to the course description. Select Plan Detail it should display a list of suggested resources for the readings. Also, you will find each new topic heading has an accompanying section called Explore which lists the suggested readings and other readings listed as See Also.

    As far as notes you may download, I don't think there are any per se, however, some courses have pages on Faithlife and the instructor may provide notes there, but I'm not aware of any. Some courses have an activities resource and there are fill in the blank questions included here. I hope you find this helpful. See screenshot below:

    Great help, Amodeo!

    As far as notes you may download, (...) courses have pages on Faithlife

    I think this is generally true for all courses. One needs to follow the group, e.g, to keep with your example, https://faithlife.com/nt305/activity 

    There, under COMMUNITY / Bible Study / Logos Documents is the xls-Sheet of the recommended reading resources (the material found in the courses page - single arrow) and the Notebook which contains Notes for the specific sections of those readings (sidelining in the Logos resources - double arrow in the screenshot)
