I do not mean this as an insult to Tara-Leigh Cobol, but rather a constructive criticism. As much as I love hearing the word of God, I have prayed for tolerance about the vocal fry. I realize speech patterns in societies change over time. For example, listen to how radio announcers talked in the 1930s, 1940s, etc. Old TV commercials or the old news reels that played in theaters before the start of a movie. Over the last several years, I’ve heard vocal patterns among women gradually change. Specifically, ending sentences with a growl sound. This growl has been defined as a “Vocal fry.” I have heard others attribute it to people of higher society. It has also been attributed to the Kardashians. It’s normal for people to try and emulate others in society Tara-Leigh has a beautiful voice as she speaks. However the growl as she ends each sentence shutters through me. I have been told, “That’s just how some people talk.” I say no, “That’s how some people talk NOW.” It is a learned and practiced speech pattern until it becomes a habit and eventually a regular part of their speech pattern. I enjoy listening to The Word as I relax in the evening. I will have to resort to reading The Word from this podcast instead. I apologize if this reality offends anyone, but please know that this is not simply my opinion, but it is a reality. Blessings to all. 🙏🏼❤️

Helpful to set what I’m reading /hearing in my daily studies!

I love the Bible Recap, and listen to it during all of my runs. I play them over several times to gain more insight and understanding of the Bible. TLC is awesome - funny and excellent at clarifying what is sometimes very difficult material to understand.

I am so glad for this podcast, it brought me back to love God first of all, I use to think I was a worthless, well, human. I though I wasn’t loved nobody cared about me, I was told about this podcast and realized I was cared about, and God loved me and always has. For I was found then lost again and I was found this year and now I remember who I really am. He is where the joy is!

I’m the kind of gal who likes ultra-academic Bible study and commentary, but some of it is incredibly dense and just goes straight over my head. That’s why I love the Bible Recap; Tara-Leigh provides well thought-out reading plans with thoughtful, fun, and enriching commentary that is relevant for every day life. I also love that it is not centered around building up knowledge about God but around knowing God and growing in knowledge of who He is and how He wants us to obey and love Him. The Bible Recap is a breath of fresh air; if you’re reading this, start today!!

“Hold with an open hand” is one of my favorite Tara Leigh Cobble expressions when discussing some scriptures. I think there is a fear that some commentators will be too fundamental, too liberal, too whatever, not enough something else. When we truly come to the Word with the objective to know God, He blesses us with new hearts. We come away better people of character. TLC keeps us on that pure path. No matter your “leanings,” you can read the word, pick your God shot, listen to the Podcast, and be transformed. Thank you, TLC, for the perfect format to keep me on track. I have never read the Bible front to back (despite studying scripture for years). I know I will do it now - though it may take me two years!

I absolutely love the Bible recap! It has been a blessing and joy to read the bible.

I love having the daily Word of God to keep me grounded and encouraged. Tar Leigh’s insights, articles, and other resources add a blessing to the daily messages from the Bible. I am grateful to all of you who make this possible!

All of God’s word is nourishing. This podcast helps me dive deeper into the word every day. I look forward to TLCs takeaway and encouragement!

I’m halfway through, and my knowledge of God and spiritual maturity have gone through the roof with Tara-Leigh’s Bible reading methods. And I’ve been a Christian for years (!). Can’t say enough good things about this podcast. Very glad I found it.

This podcast and reading plan has been such a blessing to me! It has kept me more on track in my daily reading than I’ve ever been. Also, I love that the focus is “what way your God shot for today”, it’s helped me to daily remember that He’s where my focus and my heart should be. He’s where the joy is!

Love Tara Leigh’s recap! Especially for the hard to understand or less relatable passages. She’s helped me see how God is still working in the not as obvious ways and ultimately that God is soo good and faithful and He is where the joy is!

A young mother was studying her Bible at my local library and I asked if she was a Bible teacher. She told me about The Bible Recap and I’m so glad she did! I began listening to The Bible and then listening to Tara Leigh discuss the same passage I read. I am 67 years old and have been a committed Christian since my twenties. I’m embarrassed to say I have never read the entire Bible! However, my husband and I required both our sons to read the Bible through more than once. They are godly husbands and fathers serving in ministries, both raising their children, with our amazing daughters-in-love, to know The Lord! The Bible Recap has helped me understand so much more than if I was reading it alone. Over the years I have attended numerous Bible studies, have studied on my own, but this method has helped me to connect the dots of the big picture and God’s plan for man. Thank you for this powerful ministry! I share my “method” with others often. May God continue to use The Bible Recap for His glory and to draw others closer to Him. We certainly need a closer and stronger walk than any other time during my 67 years! Vicki from NW Georgia, USA.

I have really enjoyed this plan and podcast. I have seen my desires changing and my actions looking more like Christ. It has been such a blessing to be in the Bible every day!

This is by far one of the best things that I have ever decided to do. I have grown spiritually and absolutely love TLC!🙌❤️

Even when I can’t read my Bible, I can get my daily God shot with The Bible Recap! 🤍

So much love for this show and the ministry you’re letting Christ lead you through. Thank you thank you for sharing this light with us! You are blessing so many with your knowledge, may we all use it well. Very glad to have found your content!

It’s so fun and encouraging going through the Bible with Tara-Leigh. I’m reading familiar texts through fresh eyes because of her profound insights. Learning to look for God instead of myself. I look forward to starting every day with this podcast!

Wow! Where do I begin? My Pastor’s wife introduced me to this wonderful podcast about 2 1/2 years ago. I started it at that point and I have been listening everyday to it. I love Tara Leigh’s perspectives, the Chronological way the scriptures are read and most especially, her sense of humor. (Love you) I always come away with something that greatly encourages me. I have been excited to share TBR with family and friends via Facebook messenger. I LOVE the catch phrase; He’s Where The Joy Is”. It is SO true. I even bought that ornament for my Christmas tree. Thank you Tara Leigh and all who work so diligently to put out this marvelous podcast. I listen to it on my phone

I had tried several times to read the entire Bible, unsuccessfully. This podcast takes us thru the Bible chronologically which better helps us understand the overall story because it is one story. And Tara Leigh’s podcast recap helps put the chapters in perspective, reminding us of things that happened previously and things that are to come. She additionally provides other resources that are helpful. I am going thru this part a second time and I am seeing things I either missed the first time or forgot about. The Bible is the *living* word … it has something new for me each time I read it. Just give it a try.

Using this app such a wonderful way to draw closer to God. It really helps me focus and stay in step with God‘s plan and purpose for my life!

I have been so blessed by this podcast. Tara-Leigh explains the daily scripture readings so well that I can begin to understand what I previously couldn’t. She brings so much history of the events taking place for us to better understand why events are occurring. I can’t say enough of this podcast. Thank you, Tara-Leigh. I appreciate you so much.

Reading God’s word is so fulfilling! This podcast is what I look forward to each day, as a way to follow up my time in God’s word, to hear Tara-Leigh summarize and break it down has been so helpful in understanding!

Such a good supplement to the annual bible reading plan. She brings great context and insight into the reading.

I’m ashamed to admit that at age 59 and a lifelong church goer, I have never read the Bible from start to finish. In December I saw an ad on Facebook for the Bible Recap with Tara-Leigh and I decided I would do it beginning on Jan. 1st. I made a promise to myself and to God that I would absolutely finish the Bible in 365 days through this app. I have kept my promise and just finished up the first 100 days. Let me just say, there were several chapters that were challenging to stick with but Tara-Leigh’s video recaps kept me going! She does an amazing job summing up each reading and she keeps me motivated! She is a Godsend for sure and is perfect in the role that she takes on this app. If you have always wanted to read the entire Bible, but haven’t done so or if you’d like to read it again, this is the way to do it! I plan on doing it again in 2025 only next year I will keep a notebook beside me and will take notes. I wish I had done that this time! But thanks to the Bible Recap, I plan on doing this program every year! Thank you, Tara-Leigh and the Bible App. What a great asset you are to Bible readers everywhere!! I highly, highly recommend this to anyone!

I love the Bible Recap. I love the summary of the reading and the explanation on what I just read. There is a lot in the readings that I would have missed or misunderstood without Tara-Leigh’s insight. I have grown in my faith and enjoyment of the Bible with the Bible Recap. It is one of my favorites parts of the day. Thank you!

This podcast has helped me understand the Bible on a level I never have before. The snippets of information are easily digestible and TLC breaks it down beautifully. I use the study guide to go along with it and highly recommend. 💯💯

What a treasure the Bible Recap is!! Starting the day in God’s Word and learning more about Him is the best way to begin everyday. Tara-Leigh is spot on with her narrative sprinkled with humor and reminding us He’s where the Joy is!!!

This is the most committed I’ve ever been to any Bible devotional. I look forward to it every morning during my workout time by listening to scripture & then the Bible Recap. What a phenomenal use of technology! Thank you!

I am truly enjoying reading through the Bible with Bible Recap. It helps me stay focused and because of the daily broadcast I feel I am not alone. Thank you! Getting to know my LORD more and more each day. What's not to love. -Lene

Short, very informative, recaps of the Bible I’m a life long Christian but learn something new from each podcast

Just had one of my FCA student athletes tell me about it and I’m just loving it right away!

The Bible Recap has been a great way to read through scripture. there is so much good and insightful that is added per each podcast episode after the reading. Highly recommend!

Scripture is so incredibly intertwined. Reading the full story of God is a must for any Christian and for anyone who just wants to know more. It is incredible and Tara Leigh does a great job as a guide. I love looking for my God shot each day. I am taking it a bit slower than a daily basis, and it’s still just as powerful! My goal is to finish in 18 months.

Love Your explanation of the word. Please keep it up 👍. Please say a prayer for my wife and two daughters!! They need Jesus!!!! And a special unspoken request 🙏🙏🙏. Thank You 🙏 Victor Crockett (retired USArmy& USPS)

My desire is to get close to God, know His Word, and apply it in any situation that comes up. This app is easy to use, has thought-provoking commentaries that help me understand things from other perspectives. They are so careful to get it right too! Thanks, Tara and everyone behind this awesome application.

Couldn’t have been blessed with a better study guide and wonderful insight on the Bible. Thank you TLC and everyone who is involved for this amazing podcast.

The Bible Recap does an excellent job of explaining the key points of passages of scripture while reminding me that it’s all about God. I look forward to reading my Bible daily, answering the questions and listening to the podcast. And I find myself remembering what I’m learning throughout the day and sharing it with others. Thank you for investing in this powerful tool!

I am a 18 year old and this is my first time taking the beautiful journey of reading through the Bible! I was hesitant at first because how was I supposed to understand and break down what I was reading, but these quick review podcasts lessons are SO helpful! It’s like she’s holding my hand while I’m reading through the Bible! I love that the chapters are all laid out and the Bible recap gives me a set plan to follow! Would definitely recommend! 😊✝️

I had a TBR book but didn’t realize there was a podcast. During an incredibly anxious time, I was unable to sleep. I found the podcast through Candace Cameron Bure. Every night I would listen to TBR all night long. It was a way to hear truth, be encouraged, be reminded, be corrected. I am so grateful for this podcast and recommend it often.

The Bible Recap has helped spark a desire for me to read the Bible again in a tough and dry time in my own spiritual life. I am very thankful for that. I appreciate the recaps (a lot!) but mostly love the time in God’s word. Thank you (to the whole team!) for the sacrifices you have made to bring this to all. God bless you ALL.

So many times the Bible can be confusing but Bible Recap gives clear information and I love the “God shots”.

The perspective Tara-Leigh brings to the Bible is so refreshing. She brings context and truth and helps circle back each and every word of scripture to Jesus and his redemption of our world and to how perfect and wonderful our God is. Cannot recommend this more highly!!

I am so thankful I committed to participate in this journey. My love and understanding for God has grown more than I could have ever thought. Thanks for the resource. I have recommended it to so many people.

I started the recap this year at Genesis after completing the New Testament last year. It is amazing how much I have learned about context, history and word meanings through this process. Most of all I have grown closer to God and I feel I understand Him more through His word. I highly recommend The Bible Recap!!

This is my 4th time through the Bible with Tara-Leigh. I still learn so much especially about the over arching story of the Bible! I love the reminder to look for God!

I’ve been reading and studying Scripture my while life, but I’m finding myself learning something new and significant every day with The Bible Recap. I highly recommend it!

A goal I made for myself this year was to read the Bible in its entirety, chronologically and this podcast has been prefect for that! Great daily recap that keeps me accountable.

I love the Bible Recap, it has helped me learn and UNDERSTAND so much of the Bible. The detailed explanations and information Tara Leigh-Cobble gives everyday in the podcast has opened my eyes up over and over again to just how much I would have missed or misunderstood reading the Bible on my own. My relationship with God has grown so much as He’s revealed His character and love for us. And let me tell you. I never thought I would be the person who said they loved the Old Testament, and I do! I love seeing God’s faithfulness to His people, no matter what they did He wanted them back. He made way after way after way to get them back to Him. If you want to truly grow your relationship with God, your understanding of Him, His love, and His character. I would 1,000% say to do the Bible Recap, this is my second year walking through it and I keep learning more every time!

Wonderful way to start the day!! Blessed to have this beautiful journey through the Bible and growing in the word daily❤️
