Have you gone digital yet? No, I’m not talking about the converter box for your old analog television. (Although I think I heard something about a $40 coupon.) Have you gone digital with your devotions? I’m presently split at about 50 / 50. Initially it can be a struggle to make the transition from printed books to digital editions. I love books, so I sometimes feel like I’m betraying all of my printed editions when I read digital. Hopefully I’ll be able to work though that.
Here are a few of the advantages I’ve discovered by striving to go digital with my devotions:
1. Efficiency – I save a lot of time using the computer over using multiple printed books. It’s reasonably easy to consult dictionaries, commentaries, maps,etc. with a few mouse clicks.
2. Portability – I tend to have a laptop with me when I’m at work, home, or traveling. In that case I have access to my study resources wherever I go.
3. Expertise – As I continue to use my electronic Bible study tools (BibleWorks 8, LOGOS), I’m becoming more adept at using all of the features. This continues to improve the quality of the reading and research I do with these valuable tools.
If you have access to electronic Bible study tools, I’d encourage to spend a week going digital with your devotions. Good luck!
