I wrote a post in 2021 about how one can get free books with Accordance Bible software and Logos Bible software. I do not intend to repeat the content of that post, but I wanted to point out that they often can be quite good (and even when they are not, the price is right–$0). For example, this month one of them is an expensive commentary in the Anchor Yale Bible Commentary series that has a list price of $53.99. They are selling another volume in that series for $1.99–it has a retail price of $31.99. I would suggest that you bookmark this page and come back here near the start of each month and click on the links below to get the free books each month.
Free Logos Books Every Month
Another Logos Free Book of the Month (Verbum Free Book of the Month)
Logos Free Audiobook of the Month
Free Accordance Book(s) Every Month
I do not know an easy way to get links to the Accordance free book of the month–I think you have to sign up for their newsletter for that (go to the bottom of the main page linked to here.) You can also get emails from Logos about the free books, but I have found that they then email you about lots of other things that I do not want email about. Thus, I prefer to just go to the links each month.
Save $100 on a Logos Bible Software Base Package
Of course, Logos gives you these free books because they want you to buy a base package with them. If you do end up buying a base package, click on this link to save $100 off your base package (I will also get Logos credit if you use this link). I have lots and lots of books with both Accordance and Logos, and find both their packages very helpful. (I find Accordance superior for careful exegetical study of Scripture and study of the Biblical languages, while Logos has a larger number of books one can acquire and I use it more for commentaries, historical study, etc.) If I could only have one program, I would choose Accordance over Logos, but I can have both, so I do. If you do ever get a Logos base package, you get a discount for books you already own, so it is worth getting the free books each month just in case you get a package, or from already owning one get a bigger package, in the future–you will receive a discount on the books you already own.
We have amazing tools today to help us in our study of God’s Word. We are accountable for how easy it is for us. May the ease with which we can study God’s Word encourage us to strive for the prize of the upward calling of God in Christ Jesus in a greater way, by His grace and for His glory.
