    Did this resource get pulled from our libraries as well? I had purchased it but can no longer see it in my library.

    It's a shame that this extremely valuable resource is no longer available for purchase. I called Sales to find out if it might be in the future, and they were said that was not in planning. So, a big question I had, I explained, is Why not? There was no answer. I gave up and terminated the very unsupportive call. LOGOS, as a purportedly Christian organization, should not be just about sales and making money, but about preemptively serving God, through helping people study the Bible very faithfully and efficiently -- not just with innumerable resources, features and hyper-training that continues to string them out over the years. As Solomon wisely said, much study is a weariness of the flesh; and of making many books, there is no end.

    The very first study Bible I received at 12 years old was the Thompson Chain Reference Bible. I had a small Bible I had received from my parents when I was a young boy had taken me through; however, now that I had experienced the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and the humbling call to peach, my pastor felt I needed something that would help me tie the scriptures together. It wasn't until I was age 17 and had left Tulsa to move to LA to go to a Bible College, only to find out that Frank Charles Thompson had actually attended college at LIFE Bible College in LA. (Now it is called: Life Pacific University in San Dimas, CA.) Now in my physical library have this Bible in several translations. I have found that to bring actual Biblical teaching & preaching, preaching the full counselor, for the people of God, the key is to follow the threads through the Bible from beginning to end. After studying, you may not need to open every passage in one message, but at least be mindful of all that God may help as you relax and sincerely teach the Word of God. May the Lord bless everyone with this tool to know and experience the whole counsel of God's word. To now have this resource in digital format is very valuable to me & it will also be to you.

    I cannot praise the Logos Thompson Chair Reference Bible (hereafter "TCRB") too highly. TCRB was my father's go-to Bible for many years, for study, daily devotions, and carrying to Church. My high school best friend's mother used the TCRB. A year or so ago our congregation's seniors group had a get-together with the theme "bring your favorite Bible and talk about it," and a woman whose late father had been a Lutheran Pastor brought his TCRB, but confessed that she didn't really understand how to use it. I was delighted at the opportunity to gush over it and show her the basics of what makes it a TCRB. The only drawbacks of the TCRB for me have been that you have to pick a version (and I wasn't aware of it being published in my favorite version), the print is pretty small for my 78-year old eyes, and there is a lot of page turning and remembering of the organization to take full advantage of it. When the Logos TCRB resource was first offered, my dubiousness ("how can this old thing add to the value of Logos's existing offerings?") gradually turned to interest as I remembered the print version's drawbacks for me. So I bought it and set up the layout Mo Proctor shows us in his tutorial, and it quickly became my favorite starting point for my own study and for daily devotions and prayer time. As much as I value my favorite study Bibles, commentaries, and Logos's many proprietary resources, the TCRB is an ideal tool for the Lutheran practice of "letting Scripture interpret Scripture." The system that Thompson so painstakingly set up is as good as ever, and Logos's resource gives us 21st century efficiency. Good for Thompson, and good for Logos! Buy it, and watch Mo Proctor's tutorial on getting started!
