Anyone familiar with this Systematic series, called We Believe. There is currently 3 volumes available on Logos. Want to know if someone has read some and can give advice if its worth adding.
If you value accessible, Reformed-leaning theology with solid scholarship, it’s a worthwhile addition. The volumes are praised for being readable and practical, though not as exhaustive as multi-volume classics. For most users, it’s a strong, modern resource for understanding core doctrines.
I'm going to move this over to the Books and Courses forum instead of the Logos (Product) forum.
@Jason Stone (Logos) Thank you for the reply. So if I have the 4 vol Reformed Systematic Theology from J Beeke, then this is not necessary as both are reformed.
I really like Beeke's 4-volume series! They're both great so that's a tough call, honestly. We Believe would be a bit more of a summary and I'd say easier to digest than the academic heavy-weight that Beeke and Smalley published.
@Jason Stone (Logos) I thought so, but is something that will be overlapping each other or are they totally different that makes it worth having both.
Then are you familiar with this series. I am looking at this also but cant find any reviews.
Well, Crossway is a solid publisher of course—I'm a big fan—but the difference with that series would be approaching theological themes from different books of the New Testament rather than Lexham Academics' series that is built on doctrines.
I wouldn't say one is better than the other, and you would likely see some overlap while discussing particular doctrines or book themes.
Here's an unpolished example to explain: Crossway's series would be where I'd start if wanted to explore the theology of the book of Revelation, but Lexham's if I want a survey of the doctrine Son of God and Messiah (maybe even Eschatological Redemption in the Prophets) across canons. I'm not sure if that's helpful—apologies if that only adds confusion!
@Jason Stone (Logos) no confusion, I understand that they have different function in the way one focus's on doctrine on topic and the crossway series on theology of a book. But my question or concern is if they are a good series. I have not find any reviews, only on the volume of Acts one person gave a review and it was not so good. I can't even find them in physical copy in South Africa as the bookshop will not bring them in.
I just did a quick search and found a number of blog post book reviews (e.g., Books At a Glance) and remarks at Best Commentaries, which is a reputable site for providing insight on Christian academic resources. That said, it is a bit difficult finding star reviews on the series as a whole.
Where can I find a list of books in premium, pro, and max teirs in Logos for Church.
I am a Logos 10 full-feature user. I just purchased the Metzger/deSilva book and study guide for Breaking the Code Revised Edition: Understanding the Book of Revelation. The description says it includes a DVD by deSilva. How do I access it on my desktop app?
This book is not available in my country for Logos, but I can get the physical hard copy at my bookstore. Is there any way to get around this restriction.
Any updates on Jimmy Swaggart's books?
What would you recommend as good recourses for study on the sermon on the mount.
