At one time in some of the lifeway materials there was a feature that was very helpful. If there was a scripture related to the main lesson scripture,you could click on that scripture in text of the teachers manual and the scripture would appear. Is there anyway that can be done. Since I teach using an Ipad or laptop it would sure be helpful. Of course sometimes I copy and paste related scriptures to my main notes this keeps from turning back and forth in the Bible. But it does clutter my notes. The class often does the reading but I am unable to follow along.
Just wondering.
That was a feature in the APPS at one time. We are looking at future ways of how we deliver content in the a digital world and that is certainly one of the elements we want to include. Thanks
