I have been given this product by my church pastor. What an awesome gift. I consider myself the "Tim The Toolman" when it comes to explaining God's Holy Word. It's a real comfort to use such a fine resource to help me give more effective explanations of God's magnificent plan of salvation. THANK YOU LOGOS and THANK YOU PASTOR DAVE ALLMAN of NEW LIFE CHURCH.
