Ada, Mich. (Jan. 8, 2025)—The Bible Recap was created to serve a parachurch discipleship ministry (D-Group International) but became a #1 podcast on Apple Podcasts Charts in all categories and has 428 million downloads across all platforms. Its success expanded into print with a Wall Street Journal bestselling book that ranks in the top 10 Amazon nonfiction sellers. The ministry further expanded to include a daily radio program called The God Shot and a YouTube channel with 320K subscribers.
This year, in collaboration with Tara-Leigh Cobble, the creator of The Bible Recap, Bethany House Publishers, an imprint of Baker Publishing Group, is pleased to announce the upcoming release of The Bible Recap 365-Day Chronological Bible. The release is set for September 2025.
“This Bible represents a natural progression of The Bible Recap ministry,” says Cobble. “We’ve created a resource that makes it easier than ever for readers to discover that He’s where the joy is!”
The innovative format of this Bible combines the complete text of the English Standard Version (ESV) and The Bible Recap laid out as 365 Scripture readings in chronological order.
Each day’s section includes selected ESV Scripture passages followed by Cobble’s renowned “recap” that explains the text and illuminates connections throughout Scripture. This integrated approach eliminates the need for readers to alternate between separate books, streamlining their daily Bible study.
The Bible Recap has sold more than 700K printed copies, establishing itself as a trusted resource for Bible study and spiritual growth, and the podcast continues to be in the Top 10 Podcasts on Apple charts.
“We are thrilled to publish The Bible Recap 365-Day Chronological Study Bible and are grateful to Tara-Leigh Cobble for giving us this opportunity. I could not imagine a better partner for us in our mission to connect readers to God through His Word,” said Andy McGuire, editorial director for Bethany House Publishers.
