How to get Bible software
The software used on Christian Tech computers for bible study is a program
called Logos Library System. The main "program" is free with free
updates for life. You pay only for the books that you wish to use in the
program. As always there is a cost - but don't despair! Here are some of the
best deals on the web so that you can use this powerful tool at home. You'll
need at least one bible. Dictionaries, commentaries, maps, cross references, and
concordances increase the power and usefulness of the program. Be sure and get
any books you currently use in
your Bible study, since you are familiar with them.
