Yes, somewhere I count 2 fewer volumes than Logos does.

Could we please get a smaller, Catholic edition of this?

I support this, but I'd like a protestant edition too Smile. I was put off buying because too much of what I would have added were Catholic homilies.

The facts more or less:

I would say that it is highly biased to England-Scotland-American. I'd buy a more international selection.

Orthodox Bishop Alfeyev: "To be a theologian means to have experience of a personal encounter with God through prayer and worship."; Orthodox proverb: "We know where the Church is, we do not know where it is not."

    It looks like there might be several viable denomination-specific collections that could be broken out from this.

    I went down to the bottom of the product page, copied the resource list into Word, changed the bullets to numbers, and got 236.

    There are 236 resources. It was easier to count the resources than the "volumes" since many of John Chrysostom's "volumes" have been combined from two-volume compilations into one (as with his homilies on St. John's Gospel and St. Matthew's Gospel, and also with Augustine's Sermons on Selected Lessons of the New Testament, vols. 1 & 2 and many others). To boot, Stephen Charnock's 5-volume collected works downloads as a one-volume resource, and Adam Clarke's 3-volume discourses will download as a single resource as well.

    If we had counted the number of print volumes this could have been, it would be much bigger (probably around 250 volumes), but then someone who buys this without dynamic pricing would not download 250 resources, and would wonder what the heck is going on. So we went with the resource count to keep things simple.
