Bible Study Magazine being released in parts
Many of us have requested that Logos begin to produce their Bible Study Magazine in digital format. After being a faithful subscriber since the beginning I finally pulled my subscription last month because I'm on a mission to reduce "stuff" that occupies space. Also I found it frustrating that I could not search these later digitally. Others who live overseas find the cost of shipping prohibitive.
Recently Logos had begun to release parts of past issues as resources. Michael Heiser's "I Dare You Not To Bore Me with the Bible" - https://www.logos.com/product/41695/i-dare-you-not-to-bore-me-with-the-bible was released on May 8th. I picked up a copy of this because it is the section that I enjoyed reading the most.
Today I received an email announcing the "Not Your Average Bible Study Series" - https://www.logos.com/product/42409/not-your-average-bible-study-series?utm_source=blog.logos.com&utm_medium=blog&utm_content=notyouraveragestudy&utm_campaign=lexhampress2014q2 This series also appeared in past issues of Bible Study Mag.
It makes me wonder what will come out next. I have mixed feelings about this trend. On the one hand I really appreciate that parts of BSM are now available in digital format. On the other hand I don't like paying for them a second time. In my "ideal" world I would still like to see BSM as a digital subscription.

I cancelled the print version too for the same reason. I too bought/ordered these resources as I do like the content. Maybe we can get more electronic content from the magazine!

What other content would you like to see from the magazine?

I like a lot of the department columns, not the features as much 0- Backdrops, Weird but Important, Rick Brannan articles, Word Studies, any of the columns that are Bible study focused.

I would echo your sentiments Don. There have been some excellent charts that I've appreciated in the past as well.

Okay, I just placed an order for BSM. It will be my very first subscription. I was hesitant that I would only get a digital copy. For me, I'd much rather have a hard copy and collect them. I am paying for them after-all. I hope Logos offers 2 selections in the future instead of doing away with one, I would be disappointed.
Just about how many pages are in the BSM?

Are you a plant from the BSM editors? [:)]

LOL! Y'all make me laugh! And no I am not. Is it because of my name?

No... It is just that you are the first one I know of to suggest such a thing. FYI - The magazine is ONLY in print. I don't think anyone here necessarily wants the print copy gone... it's just that we are all ebook lovers and want the magazine articles in our Logos library.

Well, good to know!

That is the reason I never bought it.
I do not want unsearchable magazines lying around.
I'd enjoy being able to read it on my electronics.
If it were digital I'd already own it.
