    Awesome!
    The Bible Recap explains difficult biblical concepts & helps me better understand the cultural context of the time. As a result, I better understand God’s character & it always points listeners back to Jesus! I enjoy it so much!

    Start now!
    This recap helped me build my relationship with God! I am on day 82 and I am feeling closer to God than way before. It helps keep me accountable for actually reading the Bible for the first time. Trust me start whenever!

    Adds much understanding in little time
    I’ve been going to church my whole life, and I find Tara to be one of the best at distilling the major point of a passage of scripture. I find many Bible commentaries to be lengthy and boring. This is not the case with Tara, she keeps me interested throughout!

    Keep coming back!
    This is my third year in a row doing the Bible Recap and I’m still learning new things every day! :) Tara-Leigh always has relatable anecdotes and new insight every year. There’s so much good in this podcast. No matter what season you’re in, just do it!! You won’t be able to stop.

    I’ve NEVER made it this far through the Bible! I credit it to the Holy Spirit working through Tara-Leigh Cobble!

    In the past year plus, I start my day with listening to The Bible Recap. It helps me so much with decisions I make throughout my day and gives me some insight in discussions about the Bible with my Wife. Thank you Tara-Leigh Cobble and especially thank you God.🙏

    Heart Leap
    How to explain? What this means to me almost brings tears to my eyes as I attempt to write this review. This is my third year and every day I learn something new and a new perspective of how God loves me! TLC takes me there and while I know it’s coming…each time she’s says “He’s where the Joy is”…I get a lump in my throat and my heart leaps closer to God. Thank you TLC and thank you Bible Recap!

    Really need
    I need to hear HIS word constantly and TBR gives this opportunity. It is so well done, understandable and on point. Thank you so much for putting this together and sharing it with us. God bless.
  • Yahweh is good!
    Best Podcast Ever!!
    I literally cannot express in words how much Tara-Leigh Cobble’s podcast has changed my life. The Lord works mightily in and through her in the Recap each day in the Bible. I am blessed every single day as I read the scriptures and listen to the podcast and especially her “God shot!” If you haven’t listened to TBR, start today! You will grow in your faith journey immensely!! I thank God for Tara-Leigh and pray He continues to shower her with wisdom from His precious Word. ❤️
  • Bats0518
    Thank you TLC for TBR!!!☺️
    I’ve tried many studies and have never really taken much away because I couldn’t relate to what I read. Many will teach parallels between our life and the Bible so you read it looking for yourself. Then, you start TBR with Tara Leigh and suddenly you are looking for GOD and his character in the pages! The Bible isn’t about US…it is who GOD is!!! A real game changer. I look forward to my reading and recap each morning and am already excited to finish and begin again!!! Thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
  • Barber&Beauty
    This podcast has been so helpful to me!
    The Bible Recap has completely transformed the way I read and understand Scripture. Tara-Leigh Cobble does an incredible job breaking down each day’s reading with clarity, insight, and a focus on God’s character. Her enthusiasm for the Word is contagious, and the podcast makes it easy to stay consistent. Whether you’re new to the Bible or have been reading it for years, this resource is a game-changer!

    Informative
    Tara and the team provide a good overview of the Bible, and adds really helpful insights from parts of the Bible I’ve often overlooked.
  • Ava_Trawick
    Very encouraging and easy to understand
    Tara really helps keep me on track and she helps dissect the Bible into understandable terms. Her positive attitude helps encourage me to keep going and seek out God’s word.
  • AngieBonham
    Excellent Resource!!
    I’m so thankful to have come across this podcast. Tara great job! You make even the Old Testament easy to understand. Highly recommend this show♥️

    Keeps me on track
    Using The Bible Recap reading plan has kept me on track with reading my Bible for over a year now. The recaps bring out things that are new to me or that I haven’t put together before. I love seeing more of the character of God each day!
  • Keeping it off this time
    Such a blessing and a help!
    I absolutely adore this podcast. I love the encouragement and accountability. Even more so… I love the help in understanding what I just read. I love how our segments are broken down and explained… it helps bring the Bible to life even more. Sometimes I just don’t get the words or the meaning, or I don’t understand the context or the history and this is so incredibly helpful. Several times after listening, I find myself going back and rereading the segment for the day. I also appreciate that the reading each day is just enough and not too much. I’m excited about what’s next. I’m excited to not only listen, but to read passages that were once dry - where I felt Lost and confused. Thank you for painting the picture and helping me understand God in a deeper way. The timing and pace is perfect. Thank you!

  • JKR_83
    Give this a try!
    I was so blessed to find this podcast a few years ago! It was an answer to prayer because I wanted to be more consistent in my Bible reading. This is my fourth year to read through the Bible. I’ve become a huge fan of the Old Testament! Tara-Leigh offers insights and context to daily passages. There’s always something new to learn which keeps it exciting and motivating.

    Start Here
    Like many, I was raised in a church going home, Catholic to be exact. Like many, I walked away as a young adult. The words of the priest never provided connectivity or meaning, the words of the world penetrated, my experiences made me stay away. But then…I was so tired and soul exhausted. And very alone and tired of even that. I don’t rely on emotion or feelings because they are arbitrary and changing. I need depth and background to understand, an intellectual connection. “Show me the money.” I believed in God, but not religion, which is man made, interpreted, and exercised. I did not, however, know about the God I said I believed in. The Bible Recap and Bible Project clips explain the underlying cultural and historical background and bringing that forward to an understanding of this great God, building connective tissue and connectivity between the head and heart. It took me 3-4 years of starting and stopping around March-April until I got through a whole year of the Bible. At the end, I felt so cheated of all that I didn’t know and learn and missed out as a child. I started over again this year to absorb more…there’s so much there’s no way you can grasp in 1 year, or even 10. This is where to start learning about the God that crafted you perfectly. You will begin to feel confident in His word so you can move to other programs and studies and know which is really grounded in His character and intention because you have read his word, slowly and surely, and gotten some of the historical and cultural meaning and events that explain the whys of what may offend your modern understanding and cultural norms. (Yeah, I haven’t worked out my arguments with Paul’s perspective of women yet. Lol) I encourage you, if you’re out there wondering, feel intimidated by the Bible, maybe a bit doubtful of this whole thing, tired, alone, new to this whole thing, coming back after the hustle or being led astray in your 20s: Start Here.

    Grateful TLC
    I was invited to read the Bible for the first time over a year ago using this Bible study and now I'm re reading for the second in hopes to read every year! God is on the move and using you all! He is where the joy is! Thank you Jesus!
  • ac8204
    Love it
    Only 2 months in but it has changed my life!
  • jazzywags
    Great plan and podcast!
    Absolutely love the Bible Recap. I’m learning more about God and the Bible (because it can be confusing) so thank you TLC and the whole Bible Recap team!

    Makes the Bible accessible
    As someone who has struggled with reading due to dyslexia, the Bible has always been a challenging book for me. I found I would pick it up so many times and it was often too overwhelming for my dyslexic brain to understand. Tara’s daily recap helps my brain process what I read (or listen to) each day. I’m so thankful for this, because I’ve always wanted to read and understand and always felt like I couldn’t. As a full time working mom with 2 kids, I love the bite size recaps that I can listen to in my quiet 10 minute drive to work each day.
  • Drew Ham
    This is so awesome!
    I’m 12 and I’ve never read the full Bible until now, this has been so helpful in guiding me and getting me through even the difficult or boring parts! This has let me see God’s Word for the first time, not just edited into sermons or kids bible songs, and I love it!

    Faithful Listener
    I love this app. I’m on my second year listening.

    Gaining Understanding
    I have completed one year and trip through the Bible with Tara-Leigh through this podcast and enjoyed it so much that I started it again this year. She has helped me understand the daily readings much easier and brings cultural context to the conversation (which is also very helpful). I appreciate that she reiterates for you to take time to ask God to help you discern His truth. I am very appreciative that she devotes her time to helping others understand the Bible which can at times be tricky. She helps to make it easy and consumable. This is a blessing and I pray it reaches those who need it.
  • Jmd10s
    Transformative!!
    My walk with God has suspiciously grown exponentially since following this Bible reading plan and listening to these recaps… I can’t thank my Lord and my God enough!! Thank you Bible recap team for being faithful to His call in your life.
  • Realtor-Sharon
    Enlightening!
    I’ve been in bible studies off and on since I was baptized into Christ. We’d study this book or that one. But never have I read through the whole bible. I’m learning more than I ever thought I would. Tara is amazing at bringing the readings altogether. Thank you to my sister Sandy for recommending I try the Bible Recap 🥰
  • trufflefluffle🐩
    praise for tlc & tbr!!!!
    i am 14 and i absolutely love this podcast. i have a hard time keeping with things, but this podcast keeps me genuinely engaged. i love how she doesn’t make theology seem scary, and she helps me to reach the conclusions that i was just short of reaching before i found this podcast. i recommend this to anyone interested in truly learning more about God and growing in your faith. also, it has lead me to mature a bit in my faith. i have found myself asking questions that even my small group leaders cannot answer, and before this podcast, i never would’ve dug deeper into it. thank you so much for all that you do tara-leigh, you have honestly changed the way i look at studying scripture, and i am always praying for you. i am so happy to be blessed by your spiritual gifts through this podcast 🩷

    First year for me and going great
    Thanks for making TBR which makes it possible for supercommuters like me to listen to Gods word in a digestible format while on the road.
  • KendraBran
    Best Bible Reading App Ever
    This has been the easiest Bible reading app to stick with I’ve ever tried. Tara-Leigh is extremely informed about the Bible. She’s also funny and interesting. I’m definitely sticking with it till the end!
  • PJF1963
    Wonderful!
    This is God-honoring, insightful, and joyful! I look forward to it every day. It is changing the way I see the Lord and His Word!
  • mu11igan
    I made it through Leviticus!
    This is the first yearly Bible reading plan that got me through Leviticus! That “hey Bible readers” encouragement with daily “God shots” has really helped me keep pressing on. My wife and I are doing this plan together, and what an amazing thing to be talking about God’s word together every day! So excited to keep reading this year!
  • White Suburban Gal 😄
    Enlightened
    A friend told me about how she was enjoying The Bible Recap and how it accomplished a lot in about 7 minutes a day. So I gave it a try! It’s very enlightening to hear the “boring” parts of the Bible with such interest and significance. You just breeze through them and find that they’re not as boring as you might think!
  • oakboundbooks
    she states definitely "let their be lite" doesnt mean the kind that sustains plants
    i find her assertion wrt "photosynthetic light" as opposed to some other luminescence the apex of biblical interpretive selective nitpicking, massaging of text to auit one's viewpoint. otherwise she's got a pleasant voice and convincing manner of deliveet
  • lrp2000
    Love this show!
    Tara-Leigh’s concise insights on the passages we read makes the Bible come to life. I’m on my second year following this and I’m still learning new things!
  • ConnieDenver
    So grateful for this show!
    My husband and I are on our second year of following TBR and we love how accessible Tara-Leigh makes the bible with her explanations! I recently joined one of her online D-Group bible studies which is also fantastic!

    This is my 5th year to read through Scripture using The Bible Recap. Each year I see new things I haven’t noticed, I grow in my beliefs and feel closer to God and the knowledge of who He is.

    A Practical Way to Read Through the Bible
    Reading the Bible can feel overwhelming. Reading it with The Bible Recap makes it accessible and interesting! If you listen to that day’s readings, it can be a part of your commute, doing household chores, or your workout. Starting your day with Scripture has never been easier and will help to direct your day. I appreciate that Tara Lee emphasizes the gospel throughout the whole year and continually reiterates that “He is where the joy is.”
  • M Logan S
    Truth. And food for your spirit.
    I intentionally protect time during my lunch hour to listen to this podcast. I have learned so much so quickly, and hearing of God’s character through this podcast has brought me to tears almost daily. Listening to this podcast is something I look forward to every day.
  • Tiff_213
    First time TBR
    I was given the hard cover book as a gift a few years back and have used it when studying certain books of Bible but now I’m working on the Bible in a year. Can I just say I love the way Tara-Leigh finds so many nuggets of wisdom showing us God’s character and His joy all throughout the Bible and I am just finishing Leviticus! Also I love listening to the podcast and hearing her enthusiasm about Jesus which makes me want to dive deeper into His word. Thank you TBR and Tara-Leigh!
  • Kickyourbootsoff
    Need this daily!
    I love the Bible recap! I just found it this year(2025) and the readings are easy to fit in to any time of my day. Whether it’s driving the kids to school, drinking my coffee, or laying down at night for bed. Tara has a soothing voice and not only reads from the Bible but gives you an explanation. Let’s be honest a lot of us stray away from reading the Bible because we don’t understand what we are reading but she does a fantastic job!

    Year 2
    This is year two for me and TLC is so full of warmth, love, and energy she helps me keep going in my pursuit of relationship with God. I am beyond grateful for this podcast. After finishing my first year of recapping I even became a Re-Captain. I appreciate the entire TBR team. Tara- Leigh is a awesome disciple of Christ and reminds us all each and every day that HE’S WHERE THE JOY IS!!!!
  • Kels P.
    Learning So Much!
    I am loving The Bible Recap. I’ve never made it this far when trying to read through the Bible. I listen to the Bible reading then come over and listen to the podcast. I look forward to it everyday!
