Lots of fantastic material. I bought this product primarily because I thought that being Dr. Macarthur's Lifeworks it would have his New Testament Commentaries. It only had 3 which was a little disappointing however there is lots of good resources in it which I will put to good use.

This is a review of MacArthur Lifeworks Library 1.0.
I have this software, along with the Nelson eBible Expanded Edition (both run on the Libronix system), and these are by far the best Bible software packages (for the money) that I have. Nelson does a great job keeping the cost down for their software libraries.
I notice a number of people say that Libronix does not run well on their computers. I have a 5 year old Toshiba laptop running Windows XP, and I have found, for me, that Libronix has been the most trouble-free installation, updating, opening, and operating of the 3 Library search engines I use (not to mention the hideous slow-downs I get with Norton anti-virus software). And, of the 3, the email customer support from Logos (Libronix) has been a 100% successful experience each of the 3 times I've needed help - while the other 2 have left me very frustrated at times.
Finally, I might mention the video tutorials on logos.com are terrific - I'm not much for reading help articles, and if it weren't for those videos, I might still be using the program primarily for reading a few Bible versions and commentaries in parallel and nothing else!
I don't plan to get the current version 2 of the MacArthur Lifeworks Library, but it looks like it has even more stuff than my version.

I purchased this from GTY.org several years ago and finally one day the disk just broke. I always want a copy of this program for my Bible study because John is one of the finest teachers I know of. The number of his books and other materials that are unlocked when one registers this program is valued at over $1200 and is well worth every penny spent on the program.
