READ THE BIBLE WITH US IN 2026

The Bible Recap is a daily Bible reading plan with a short, daily podcast that highlights and summarizes that day’s Bible reading in a casual, easy-to-understand way. We’re partnering with The Bible Recap to go through the Bible chronologically (following the order of events in which they occurred). Our goal in 2026 is not to read through the Bible perfectly, but to read MORE than we did the year before and to understand more the story God has written and is writing through his people.

Have you ever closed your Bible and thought, “What did I just read?” Or maybe you've tried to read through the Bible in a year, but quit when it felt confusing or impersonal? Are you one of the many who has read through the book of Genesis approximately 20 times, but haven't read anything beyond that? The Bible Recap is here to help! It’s a short daily podcast (approximately 8 minutes) hosted by Tara-Leigh Cobble. Each day you’ll read the assigned reading plan, then tune in to The Bible Recap after you've finished reading (see links below)!

NOTE: Please do not buy a print Chronological Bible; it will likely be laid out differently than our reading plan. All you need is a regular Bible.

FAQ's

The Bible Recap uses the ESV (English Standard Version) of the Bible. We recommend that you avoid buying a chronological Bible because it will likely be laid out differently than the Bible Recap plan. Instead, just use your regular print Bible or follow along via the Bible App.
