Faithlife launches new Logos 8 across all platforms

What's new this week?

Lots going on with political candidates working hard in their last week to get out that one extra vote that will send them to the respective jobs they are vying for. For me the end of the political season means an end to huge amount of political/candidate mailers that have plagued our mail carriers, our recycling bins, etc. Not to mention the barrage on television. Will be glad to see them go.

But that's not what this post is about, it is about something far more important and exciting. What is that you may ask?

Faithlife has launched its newest release of Logos Bible software. I have been a strong support of Logos and user of their Bible software since 2004. It is truly an incredible tool in order to study God's Word and grow in your relationship with the Father. I have seen the jump in ability from Logos 3 to Logos 4 and the incremental improvements through Logos 7. But Logos 8 is a complete and total jump on its own. They have incorporated new tools to dig into scripture to learn and grow. Not only have they revamped their PC and MAC desktop versions, but they release simultaneously new versions of their Mobile apps (Android and iOS), and the web app at http://app.logos.com. All of this occurred on Monday, October 29th.

There is so much that they have improved or enhanced to make using resources from your library that the thought that Logos is a digital assistant becomes so much more apparent. Although I have been busy reviewing some of Morris Proctor's quick start videos - for those unfamiliar with Morris Proctor, he is the official Logos trainer (https://mpseminars.com) and spent only a few hours reviewing this latest update. I am increasingly excited about this latest offering from Logos.

I plan to in the weeks ahead to provide some further reviews of different aspects of Logos 8. In the meantime, click the Logos 8 link to the right to go directly to Faithlife's site and see.

Be blessed and we'll see you soon.
