Inductive Bible Study Basics for Logos: Prayer, Observations, & Word Studies

About This Training

Dr. John Fallahee guides you through the essentials of inductive Bible study using Logos Bible Software. In this webinar you’ll learn how to set up a prayer list, add reminders, and bring the list to your Dashboard for daily focus. You’ll also explore how to create custom highlight palettes, search and organize observations, and link word‑study notes for clean, searchable references.

The training covers practical steps for sharing prayer lists, using tags and reminders, and applying visual filters and parallel texts to deepen your reading. By the end, you’ll know how to build a workflow that blends prayer, observation, and word study into a consistent study routine that supports a deeper knowledge of Scripture.
