On my laptop that's no small matter.įor that reason, I decided when I did install Logos 4, I would install it on an external drive. I figured that would more than double the amount of disk space I had allocated to Logos. I had already heard Logos 4 couldn't use the Libronix format it was going to reinstall all my books for me in a different format. That was a difficult decision, because all those resources take up lots of disk space.

I also decided after reading the reviews that I was going to leave the older Libronix version on my computer until I was certain the advantages of Logos 4 warranted a full move away from software I liked so much.
#QUICKVERSE BIBLE UPGRADE#
I decided not to upgrade until I could devote a full day to it. I read several reviews, all of which commented on the very long installation process. It came at a very busy time, though, so I didn't try to install the new Logos right away. Naturally, last November, when Logos announced the release of Logos 4, I was eager to see it. I found loads of valuable Libronix-compatible books online, including a ton of Arthur Pink resources, Edwards' Works, and the complete works of John Bunyan.

That's when Logos became the software I preferred for reading, searching for obscure material, collecting hard-to obtain and out-of-print resources. Its user interface was way cooler than any of its predecessors it was more flexible and almost intuitive. In 2001, when Logos released their third major upgrade-the one with the Libronix engine-I was deliriously happy with it. For large-scale searches across a massive database of Bible-study material, Logos simply cannot be beat. It's free, easy to use, and much speedier than Logos or any of the other workhorse Bible programs.īut I consider Logos a must-have because of the wealth of excellent resources that have been formatted for Logos. E-Sword is perfect if I just need to cut and paste Bible verses, check the Greek word for "lasciviousness," or look up something in a Bible dictionary quickly.

At the end of the week, when I'm in the hands-on process of writing notes for a sermon, I use e-Sword. I generally use Logos first, throughout the week, mainly for reading and research. People sometimes ask how I do systematic study. (That includes, of course, the MacArthur Study Bible notes). It wasn't always my favorite Bible-study software (and even now I sometimes use as many as six Bible programs simultaneously when studying) but I never abandoned Logos because of the rich store of resources that were exclusive to Logos. 've been using Logos Bible Software for years-since the Windows 3.1 version in about 1993 or '94. The (very long) account of how I came to love Logos 4
