Logos 10 Deal

Are you looking for help in your Bible study and preaching preparation? Logos is the best Bible program for Windows and Mac.  I have been using it for years. It will give preachers access to hundreds of books from commentaries, Bibles, dictionaries, lexicons, that he never could read otherwise.

The latest version is Logos 10. Prices depend on the level purchased. Be forewarned. It's pricy. But you can start with one of the starter levels for a low price, and then add to it later as you are able.

You can purchase Logos and get $100 off the purchase price by clicking on this image and making your selection.

New Book on the Holy Spirit

My readers may be interested that I have started to author a new book on the Holy Spirit. This book will be based on material that I gathered while teaching about the Holy Spirit for the Online Academy of Biblical Studies several years ago.

The book will primarily address the topic of the work of the Holy Spirit as described in God's word, but it will have a short section on the manner of the Spirit's indwelling as well. At this point I have the Power Point slides that I used in the class and a mind map that I have started to organize my thoughts on the subject. The whole mind map looks like this:

There is a lot of work to do before the book can be published, but I hope to have the book finished and ready for publication within about a year.

As I write each chapter of the book, I may publish some of the chapters here so readers can see what is coming once the book is completed.
