Update: Logos announced the same day this article was published that the offensive material on their platform was an error and that they were removing the offending content ASAP. This post contains links with graphic descriptions and language. Viewer discretion is strongly advised.
Logos Bible Software is perhaps the world’s most prominent and popular sermon prep and bible study software. Released in 1992 by Faithlife Corporation, this digital library application contains over 100,000 titles and theological resources in over a dozen languages, and has been endorsed by everyone from John MacArthur to Beth Moore.
Logos offers access to Christian classics, academic work, commentaries, encyclopedias, bibles, devotionals, Greek and Hebrew lexicons, datasets, lectionaries, dictionaries, interlinears, and all other sorts.
Aimed at colleges, seminaries, pastors, teachers and laypeople, these items are offered through standalone purchases or through packaged bundles. In some cases, these bundles cost up to $2149.99.
Books are also offered through Faithlife E-books, which has over 100K titles and is named after their namesake Faithlife Corporation, which owns several other companies in this field:
Faithlife E-books and Logos also sell hardcore erotica. We have uncovered hundreds of books that Logos has sold or is currently selling that contain extended graphic and descriptive sex scenes rivaling the most sordid and smuttiest of Harlequins.
A few examples include: (Warning, to view, click to enlarge)
Content can also be seen here and here
While one-offs of these books can be purchased and added separately, the content can also be full text searched via Logos 10 gold or higher without purchasing the books, giving any bored pastor quick access to this content where no one would think to look, and without ever having to pay for it. There is no content warning for this literature through the program, and it cannot be locked down or blocked by a firewall.
So why is Logos selling it?
According to Logos’ distribution philosophy, “Logos is not a church, charity, ministry, or nonprofit” but a “technology company and bookstore that serves churches, pastors, academics, and laity.” While their guidelines insist that they don’t sell media that contains pornography, they clearly do, with nearly 750 titles containing explicit content cataloged.
One longtime Logos user, whose identity we are shielding, estimates he’s spent over $15,000 on their resources in the last decade. He has contacted the company multiple times over the last month, sounding the alarm about selling these perverse resources, but alleges no one has responded to him or bothered returning his messages.
We hope you will change that.

😳😳😳
You can read about Sodom and Gomorrah... Or you can take part in it.
i never heard of it, but yet it’s ‘the most popular for sermon prep?’ Lord, preserve us!
😳😳😳
My thoughts exactly
Yes, we sure do, sadly.
The printing process was also used to put some ugly stuff out there. That didn’t mean we got rid of the printing press.
(Almost) Everything is infected (with something) these days
If it’s not spyware, it’s something else coming through advertising
Or it’s Christianity with a side agenda of pushing LGBTQ
That’s why I say that the hour is very late
From a new children's book called The Baptism of Jesus:
Dear Lord
Something not found in the Scriptures at all
We all know who’s behind this, among other things porn related.
Every single time
You have got to be kidding me!!!
Let me guess...mostly gay topics.
“Something not found in the Scriptures at all”
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night?
bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
9 And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
How dare you present such Stark Truth?
Reminds Me of My Sin.
It really is the “Good Book”.
Song of Solomon reminds me of what I abandoned to experience Lot’s story in the present day world.
Bkmk
Next, Logos Hardcore.
A Harlequin bodice ripper is now hard core smut? Maybe it’s time to picket public libraries everywhere. Because a substantial chunk of their paperback collection is just this material.
