Logos doesn't offer my top book yet (Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster) but here are the ones I appreciate the most that are in my Logos library:
- https://www.logos.com/product/20471/spiritual-disciplines-collection In particular I like Donald Whitney's Simplify Your Spiritual Life: Spiritual Disciplines for the Overwhelmed and Spiritual Disciplines for the Christian Life which are both offered in this collection
- Oswald Chambers also wrote a classic - https://www.logos.com/product/551/christian-disciplines

Bruce - your response answered the question that came to my mind when I saw this post:
What are the best books on spiritual disciplines and are they in LOGOS?

My favorite: Celebration of Discipline... No, it isn't in Logos. Yet. Another set of books is the "apprentice" series by James Bryan Smith. Those are currently available in Vyrso, but are migrating to Logos. (You might want to grab them in Vyrso).

Just to clarify, the reason why you are saying this is that owners of Vyrso books that migrate to Logos are automatically receive the updated Logos version when it becomes available.

Yes, those who own the Vyrso resource should receive the Logos edition when it comes out. Also, the Vyrso editions are subject to being pulled at any time, and we don't know how long it will take for the Logos editions to be completed. Lastly: I think you will save a few bucks... but that is my "youth pastor" math for you. [:O]

Thankful for "The Experience" being $ 0.00 on Vyrso for Thanksgiving 2013:

This one is probably worth you taking a look at, as a man:

I had hidden it, thinking it wouldn't be relevant to me, but I just unhid it and found out that there's plenty in it that I could learn from, and it's good to have books like this on hand in my library anyway, to be able to recommend them to others.

Maybe this book might be slightly off target for you in terms of talking about virtues, as opposed to discipline, but this book really blessed me when I read it some time back as part of my MA:
https://www.logos.com/product/10281/the-glorious-pursuit-embracing-the-virtues-of-christ
Overview
Do you want to experience Christ in new ways but feel frustrated when nothing seems to work? Are you discouraged by those areas of your life that never change because that's just the way you are? Do you feel like you're not the person you were meant to be?
If you answered yes to any of these questions and want to find true fulfillment, The Glorious Pursuitcan help. By examining the virtues of Christ, you'll be introduced to a new way of experiencing Christ that is authentic and gives meaning that lasts.
"When we practice the virtues of Christ," says Gary Thomas, "we become who God created us to be and experience Christ in a whole new way." The Glorious Pursuit examines how we can experience the long-term change that comes from following Jesus and reveal Him in our behavior towards others. Experiencing Christ is possible. The Glorious Pursuit will show you how.

Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster and The Practice of Godliness by Jerry Bridges were used as textbooks in personal discipline class. Love to have Celebration of Discipline in Vyrso or Logos.
