I hope you’re enjoying the new Logos 8 Notes tool as much as I am. I know it was a big transition from 7 to 8 Notes, but if you’re not quite there yet, please keep going. The new Notes database really is remarkable.
And it seems with each new update the power of Notes expands. The recently released 8.5 is no exception: we can now add Notes to Guide sections. [Read more…]
Our Logos Bible Software continues to expand and improve. Often it’s a small improvement that creates a big impact. Case in point is a recent 8.5 tweak: Notebooks and Collections were added as Filters on the Docs menu. [Read more…]
So here’s an observant question from a Logos user:
I’m really enjoying the Faithlife Study Bible but noticed a Bible selector on its toolbar. What’s that all about?
That’s a good eye and it provides me an opportunity to showcase this resource. Since its publication several years ago it has become my go-to study Bible. Its many features include: [Read more…]

These tools are great for our study, but as you’ve probably discovered, Guides, Workflows, and Notes are not designed to produce the finished product of a sermon manuscript or Bible lesson.

I want to show you a little trick that will produce instant cross-references for your passage: [Read more…]
The recently released Logos 8.4 contains numerous tweaks providing enhancements designed hopefully to make our Bible study a little more powerful or enjoyable.
One such change is: with the simple addition of the word “study” in the Go box we can access pericopes (sections in the Bible). [Read more…]
I recently received the following scenario from a fellow Logos user:
Normally I study passages so I open my preferred Bible to a specific text to exegete. Inevitably during my research, I leave the passage to look up cross-references. Is there a quick way to return to the passage I’m studying without retying the reference or using the history feature? [Read more…]
