    Let’s go further together. Read the New Testament with us.

    There’s an African proverb that says, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”


    Join us on the 5x5x5 reading plan as we go through the New Testament together in a year. It only takes five minutes a day five days a week to read along, and each week we’ll post five prompts to help you dig deeper into the text.


    To join the reading plan, click this link when you’re logged in. Or join the reading plan manually:


    • Click the plus sign next to the Home Page dashboard in the app (on desktop, web, or mobile)
    • Choose Reading Plan from the list
    • Select the 5x5x5 Bible Reading Plan


    You can check your progress from your Logos dashboard anytime, and mark each day’s reading complete when you finish.


    That’s it!


    Let’s get started.

    Does Logos have an app for Chromebook besides the mobile app in the Google Play Store? Sorry if I missed that information somewhere. Thank you.

      Try app.logos.com for web version. Still not fully featured like the desktop version, but more than mobile app alone.

    How to delete scripture text from sermon editor’s manuscript? I had placed an incorrect text reference and tried to remove the scripture reference and scriptures from the manuscript. I was only able to delete the slide

      Dr. Lee Hagwood, if you click on it and then hit the Backspace key, it'll get deleted.

    2. Dr. Lee Hagwood 3 days ago

      Phil, Thank You! My friend, I don’t know why I didn’t think of the backspace button as an option, since I am a IMac user, but I was working on a PC laptop Much Appreciated,

      Hi, thank you for tips. This links don´t work for me it show me "Guide for this shortcut is unavailable". But I will check it in my logos. I also think about this commentaries: https://www.logos.com/product/163709/1-peter-jude https://www.logos.com/product/9559/preaching-the-word-1-and-2-peter-and-jude-sharing-christs-sufferings Do you have any good experience with commentaries like this or with some good resources for illustrations etc? Thank you and God bless you :)
      Preaching the Word: 1 & 2 Peter and Jude—Sharing Christ's Sufferings
      Neither Peter nor Jude minced words about the realities that would confront every Christian and that were confronting the church at large—suffering and persecution, contradictory views of the gospel, constant challenges to the faith at the hands of false teachers. Yet even in the face of these harsh realities, both biblical writers unswervingly declared that there is no cause for despair as long as one’s foundation and identity are in Christ.

    ReadDiscover Your Out of Sight Out of Mind Books

    FREE Webinar by Morris Proctor:

    Discover Your Out of Sight Out of Mind Books—March 24 at 2:00 p.m. (CST)


    We see Logos commentaries, lexicons, and dictionaries all the time; therefore, we use them all the time. Other resources, like life of Christ and Paul books, are not as upfront; therefore, we tend to underuse them.


    To help with this challenge, join Morris for the Out of Sight. Out of Mind. webinar in which he’ll show you how to discover and use meaty, albeit, almost hidden resources in your library.


    With the features he demonstrates, you’ll be equipped to employ almost any book you own.


    By participating in this webinar you’ll also receive a discount code to save 40% on the popular Spurgeon Commentary Collection: New Testament Letters (10 vols.).

        Good feedback. Thanks, Dustin Masters. Nice to see you here! :) 1. I agree that having the Create button grayed out can be confusing. It becomes enabled once you type something into the fields. The button actually submits the group creation, which it can't do if the fields are empty. 2–3. Agreed.

      3. Mike Measley 10 days ago

        Everything went smoothly for me. Easy to use. I have assigned licenses in the past for another group that I administrate. I really like being able to buy licenses and assign them. Thank you, Phil!

        First fruits
        We who are in the Bible community understand the concept of firstfruits. It's the not clear for everybody in the rest of our Christian body though. A good example would be if you have ever planted several tomato plants in the spring and waited on them as they grow. The fruit begins to grow but it's just green as it can be. But it begins to swell and eventually becomes pink until finally you walk outside one day and there's your first right tomato. This just isn't a tomato this is a homegrown tomato and has something that all the other tomatoes in a grocery store does not have the zest and taste of a fruit you grew yourself.
        Quote Image
        1 Corinthians 15:20The Holman Christian Standard Bible
        But now Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.

          So I’m going to be doing a sermon this month on effective bible study, and would like to highlight the merits of using Logos software to the congregation, what is included in the free logos package and is there a special free package for churches that use proclaim and such?

          1. Graham Criddle a month ago

            If you go to https://www.logos.com/product/168880/logos-8-basic you can see what is included in the free package. And, no, there isn't a separate free package for those churches that use Proclaim

          I'm trying to create a commonplace book for quotations and can't decide the better route: Clippings document or Notes/Notebook. I've created a highlighting style for quotations, so I'm able to search and locate all my quotations. I'm aware I can locate all of these in a notebook, but I'd also like to export these to a PDF for offline review. Wondering if there's a way to export these quotation highlights to a Clippings document other than manually adding every quotation.
