Add Charles Stanley's Handbook for Christian Living to Counseling Guide

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I was reading through Charles Stanley's Handbook for Christian Living tonight. I noticed it has some concise yet useful articles on various counseling topics, but it doesn't appear in the Counseling Guide yet. This might be a good one to add to the Counseling Guide as another resource.

Agreed!

Here's my succinct Amazon review (from 2015) of Dr. Stanley's Handbook for Christian Living:

" A handy Christian primer that is biblical, concise, and eminently useful
Dr. Stanley has long been one of the greatest Christian influences in my life. His Handbook for Christian Living is a delightful, informative, and highly accessible reference work filled with scriptural wisdom, practical spiritual and ethical advice, and doctrinal truth on a variety of significant subjects. I particularly enjoy the insightful quotations interspersed throughout the book from Bible scholars, theologians, apologists, and early church fathers. This should be in the library of every Christ follower, as well as anyone who is sincerely interested in learning more about biblical Christianity.

It seems a little strange that an Accordance employee is requesting Logos to develop a resource.

Nathan has been part of the Logos community for many years. Why should his employment change that?

Because Accordance is a direct competitor. And because he works with the developers who create Accordance modules. And because he's learning to develop modules himself.

The resource is already developed/available in Logos. I'm not suggesting Logos develop the resource. I already own it, and I owned it for years before my current job.

What I am suggesting is that Logos tags the existing resource so that it can appear in the Counseling Guide. There is a wealth of counseling-type material in there that would make for useful entries in the Counseling Guide.

I wish these comments would stop. This has 0 relevance to Nathan's reasonable request. If you feel you need to offer complaints related to Nathan's Accordance employment, can you please keep that to the Accordance forums?

Mark Allison

Sorry Nathan. I misunderstood your request.

Atlas expansions beyond the biblical timeframe
I reached out to sales and they said there's nothing with this at present. It'd be great to see more resources/expansion added to the Atlas tool, particularly with Church History post-biblical era. Then, there could even potentially be an option to see something like "community notes" where people reference works in their…
Bible Project Graphic Overviews
Last year during a training session, I noticed @Mark Barnes (Logos) had Bible Project graphics on his demonstration screen.

Allow users to type in the sermon builder on the IOS Mobile app.
Perhaps there is a way to do this, but I have looked and not been able to find it. I would love to be able to actually work on my sermons from my IOS phone. I can see what I have typed on my computer, but that is it, I cannot type new things. I would love this feature. If I could leave my PC and take up my composition on…
Sort Smart Bible Searches
It would be nice to be able to sort smart Bible searches. I like that I can save them as a passage list and then sort them, but one less step would be ideal. I came across a theme in Ezekiel 20 of God's name and I wanted to see how many times this idea is in Ezekiel. Smart Bible search was perfect for this!
Allow us to override Logos bias by attaching n - using the creation stories of Genesis as an example
Because of its reference to image, I prefer to use the Genesis 1 reference for the creation of mankind rather than Genesis 2. This is especially important to me in the current political environment as Genesis 1 has an androgynous Adam rather than a male Adam. However, Logos not only makes Genesis 2 the primary text, it…
