I know some of these were available before in Vyrso.  Are they being converted to Logos books?

    Joseph,

    I was wondering the same thing a few days ago when I went to purchase two of the volumes in the series.  They had all disappeared so I checked with Faithlife and the response I received on April 25 from Mari Nunez (Faithlife) is the following...

    "Thank you for contacting us. It appears that we do not have those resources available for sale anymore. I do apolgize for any inconvenience and I encourage you to write to suggest@faithlife.com to request that a certain title or series be published."

    Thanks,

    Wayne

    Strange.  I assume that they must have licensing issues, as if they were being transferred to Logos editions, then I would think they would be on Pre-Pub.

    Thanks!

    I think NIB and NIBD are the only resources from Abingdon on logos.com (save PD works). Everything else they sell with Faithlife is on Vyrso, which makes some great deals, but with auto-tagging is not really the right format for commentaries. Maybe that was a reason - or they hope to strike a deal in the future. 

    Have joy in the Lord! Smile

    Those are all good possibilities.  Hopefully they will return one way or the other.
