Tip of the Month: Create a Hyperlink in Notes to a Logos Resource

I have been asked on several occasions if we can create a hyperlink in a Note file to a Logos resource. Here's how:

Navigate to the desired location in a Logos resource

Choose the panel menu on the Logos resource

Select Copy location as: URL (make sure to click URL)

Select (highlight) the desired note text in the note file (this is the text that appears in the note Content box and is hyperlinked to the resource)

Click in the Hyperlink box on the note file formatting bar

Press Ctrl + V to paste the specific link to the resource in the box

Click in the note content box to deselect the text and set the hyperlink

Now to use the hyperlink:

Hold down the Ctrl key

Click the hyperlinked text to jump to the Logos resource

Tip of the Month: Add Search Results to a Passage List

With the release of Logos 4.0c we can now add Bible search results to a Passage List (known as Verse List in Libronix).

To add individual Bible search results to an existing Passage List:

Open a Passage List from the File menu
Execute a Bible search
Drag and drop individual Bible verses from the search panel to the Passage List

To create a new Passage List from Bible search results:

Execute a Bible search

Choose the Search panel menu

Select Save as Passage List

Product of the Month: Inductive Bible Study with Logos Manual

Logos Bible Software contains many resources and tools to help us study the Bible. To effectively use these tools, however, we need to first know how to study the Bible. For example, Logos helps us discover the historical context of a passage, but we need to know what historical context is and why it's important. Logos helps with the thought structure of a passage, but what in the world is thought structure?

To help answer such questions, mp|seminars has just released a new manual entitled Inductive Bible Study with Logos Bible Software. In this 86-page resource, Morris first explains a three step inductive Bible study process:

Read the Text (Observation)

Knead the Text (Interpretation)

Heed the Text (Application)

With clear explanations, practical illustrations, and numerous scriptural examples, the manual walks you through the exciting process of discovering what a biblical passage means.

Having grasped the meaning of inductive (as opposed to deductive) Bible study, you'll be guided through four plans of using Logos Bible Software to study a biblical passage.

Beginning with Plan 1, which assumes virtually no knowledge of Logos, you'll progress through Plan 4 focusing on layouts and a more thorough understanding of the software.

In each plan, Morris suggests specific Logos features and books to use for each step of the inductive Bible study process.

This manual shows you how to harness the power of Logos in a sequential fashion for meaningful Bible study. (more info)
