Obviously, this is useful for LDS studies - an area where Logos constantly causes me problems with the dearth of resources.
Well, that's an interesting choice for Logos that will surely drive some people to rage. But it would be useful in the "Mormon Studies" collection.
I see no reason it should cause rage … we have scriptures available for a wide variety of religions.
Agreed. But if you look on the Mormon Studies collection, a few people were pretty upset that Logos would offer a product that teaches people about doctrines and history of Latter-day Saints. My thought is, if you don't want a product, don't buy it. But I see no reason why we should be afraid of the beliefs of the people around the world.

This book is firmly anti-Catholic with the common misunderstandings and misrepresentations of Catholic doctrine. However, its design is perfect for three purposes: (1) for Calvinists who want proof-texts against Catholic doctrine as they conceive it (2) for Catholics who want to defend their actual position against those…
Christian Smith's new book is one many pastors are going to want to spend significant time with. I'd rather buy it here than amazon kindle. It's gotten an in-depth analysis by Dreher recently on his substack, and what I've read has me sold on buying it.
This is a significant work relating to post-supersessionism. From Amazon: Author David J. Rudolph raises new questions about Paul's view of the Torah and Jewish identity in this post-supersessionist interpretation of 1 Corinthians 9:19-23. Paul's principle of accommodation is considered in light of the diversity of Second…
