Marriage is beautiful. It is complex and wonderful. We talk, preach, and teach about marriage frequently. And rightly so! Marriage has a valued place in God’s kingdom. But does the value of marriage negate the value of singleness? After all...
I recently addressed a gathering of church leaders about the Everlasting Gospel for Gen Z. When I finished speaking, a long line of people formed to ask questions. That wasn’t strange or unusual. What was strange was that they all asked me versions...

This article was originally published in March 2023. Why is Logos so expensive? People out there kind of mock us for it, and I’m here to admit that we feel a little sensitive on this point. Babylon Bee, for example, had a headline a few years back:...
The Bible does speak of demons, and demonology is a proper subject of theology. If angels and demons exist and afflict God’s people as the Bible asserts, then their existence and methods are necessary for a Christian’s understanding of reality. The...
Our team has been cooking up some new improvements over the last few weeks. We’re thrilled to share them with you today and hope they help you go deeper into the Word! Some of these updates are available to everyone. Others are just for those...
Who is Luke and why is he important? Luke was acquainted with and traveled with the apostle Paul. Not only did Luke travel with Paul outside the land of Israel, he also visited Israel and may have become personally acquainted with members of...
Does God plan everything ahead of time? If so, does that mean humans lack free will, that we are like robots? Such topics lead to questions about salvation: Does God save only those he’s chosen in advance? And, if so, how is that fair? These are the...
As the late and esteemed Larry Hurtado asked, Why on earth did anyone become a Christian in the first three centuries? The familial, economic, and social costs of turning from the worship of the traditional pagan gods and converting to the Way (the...
As AI enables more devices to become more capable, I'm led to reconsider another favorite question that I often ask Christian audiences: What technology do you think will—or won’t—be in heaven? More specifically, why (or why not) would there be...
Is Christianity a servile and womanish religion? It is somewhat ironic that today people sometimes dismiss Christianity as too patriarchal, whereas the ancient Romans reviled the churches as too womanish. They accused Christianity of being for the...
In Acts 19:35, the Ephesus city clerk refers to an image that fell from heaven. What was this image that fell from heaven?
My hope is that this short article will pique your interest and invite you to see how women were indeed integral to the founding of the church—and so are integral in the flourishing of yours.

Why does so much evil exist in the world? Why do men murder? Why do countries go to war? Why do people exploit others? Why do we live in a world marked by human evil? Foundational to answering these questions is the doctrine of original sin...
Recently, Kristen Tetteh sat down with Bill McCarthy, our new CEO, to interview him about his life, work experience, and what drew him to Logos. Watch or read the short interview below! Kristen Tetteh: So, who is Bill McCarthy? Bill McCarthy: Oh...
Admittedly, this is not one of the first questions people ask. Much more common is the question, Why do bad things happen to good people? For Christians, though, an equally disturbing question is: Why do good people do bad things? It is a...
I recently heard about a hiker who came across another hiker with her two dogs. As they chatted, the dog owner unleashed her pets so that they could frolic among the flowers and the trees. The dogs could not contain their excitement as they felt...
By the numbers, Christianity has been a predominantly Catholic and European religion for over a millennium, but the future of Christianity has come to look increasingly Protestant and African. The Center for the Study of Global Christianity...
“Am I sinning?” This is an inevitable question those in ministry will be asked. Christians want to know whether or not particular thoughts, words, and deeds are sinful. A glance at recent Google monthly search metrics reveals how anxious people are...

Evil is the corruption of creational and relational goodness. Evil consists of thoughts, actions, or forces that diminish life. Evil takes what God planned for the good of all his creation and distorts or defiles it. This essay addresses many of the...
Here at Logos, we’re always looking to improve—from little bug fixes to big improvements and new features, too. Over the last few weeks, our team built, refined, and shipped these updates with care. We hope you enjoy them and that they empower...
Whether you already have thousands of books in your Logos library or are just getting started with Logos for the first time, it’s worth taking a look at Logos Legacy Libraries. Legacy Libraries are the library portion of past Logos packages—the...
Watching a professing Christian apostatize a great tragedy to witness. The details aren’t always the same in each case, but the outcome is the same: a forsaken faith. As the The Eerdmans Bible Dictionary explains, apostasy is a term designating the...
Chapter after chapter in the book of Exodus relays in painstaking detail the tabernacle’s plan and construction. The entire last half of Exodus narrates the building of the tabernacle (Exod 25–40). Following this, the setting for the entire book of...
What is the Orthodox Church? And how do Orthodox Christians approach the study of Scripture? For many believers outside of Orthodoxy, Orthodox Christianity seems exotic and foreign. But for believers inside her communion, she is sometimes called the...
As a Catholic, I’m delighted when non-Catholic Christians ask me about what Catholics believe and why. I find that many of those questions involve the relationship of the Catholic Church to the Bible. There are many misconceptions and caricatures...
Our Western world is Christian enough to grasp that words like sin, repentance, and redemption are technical Christian terms. But it is post-Christian enough to not understand what those words mean within the storyline of Scripture or within a...
Recent advances in highly sophisticated, generative AI technologies have made headlines and sparked countless hot takes. These headlines and hot takes—on the novelty of ChatGPT, AI-generated deepfakes, and so forth—will appear antiquated in just a...
