Logos Bible software has long been my primary tool for bible study, sermon prep, and book writing. Now it just got even faster with a radical new search engine, and an iPhone app that can read my books.
I couldn’t have written my new book Raised With Christ without Logos Bible Software, so imagine how excited I was to hear that Logos 4 would be even faster at searching, and could now fit in my pocket with an iPhone app that reads the books I own!
If you have never owned Logos Bible Sofware, this is a great time to jump in, and I am thrilled to announce that the
25% discount for blog readers does apply to base packages for the new version. Just put “WARNOCK” into the coupon section at checkout to get your discount.
There are some more cool things about Logos 4. Firstly, they will give you a bunch more books in some interesting looking packages. Secondly it works amazingly well with the new iPhone app I mentioned earlier. Thirdly, since they realize this is a MAJOR rewrite of the software, and that for some of us longtime users this will take a while to get used to they are leaving version 3 on your system so you can use both versions in parallel.
The biggest drawback I could find during my preview of Logos 4 was that I was using it on a slow PC which I had borrowed from a friend! Sadly, it is not at all ready for prime time on mac yet. Logos acknowledge this, but the good news is they are shipping an alpha for the Mac with the upgrade, and that will be updated regularly over the next few weeks and months to bring it up to speed with the PC version. For some reason, my own mac doesn’t want to run the alpha yet, but I am hopeful this will be resolved soon.
You can install your software package on both a PC and a Mac. With the price of PC laptops being relatively low these days, I am almost tempted to buy one just so I can actually use this new search engine which is intended to be almost instant and to rank your results in much the same way something like Google does!
