Through the Word

Wall of Love for TTW

Before I found any TTW content I actually started listening to a variety of different plans in the YouVersion app until I came across a TTW plan done by pastor Kris. The other plans that I listened to were great but this plan was just amazingly different. My eyes were opened and I started to do searches for other TTW plans in the YouVersion app. Eventually I just decided to get the TTW app and I’ve been using it ever since. Later down the line I became a donor because I believed that God was working through your ministry and I wanted to show my support. Thank you for all the hard work and sacrifice you guys put in to make amazing content that’s easy to understand for all of us!

I’m 68 and a very new Christian of less than a year saved by baptism, repentance and declaring (and believing) that Yeshua is the Son of Adonai, that he is the perfect sacrificial lamb that was crucified, died and rose from the dead to pay the debt for our sin. In my new walk I host a Bible study in my home. The other men are of, what I call, a Hebraic mindset. That is they attempt to keep the Torah and its dietary law and festivals. I was somewhat confused and concerned until I read Galatians where I hear Paul telling me, loud and clear, that I am not obligated to the law any longer. Bible scholars say that the Bible can be difficult to understand and I agree but TTW explains things as to give the listener a good general understanding and a reference point from which additional research may proceed. Thank you.

Long testimony warning lol, I will summarize it as much as possible. 2021 I lost my Mom to complications in the hospital. She was very young in my opinion, 58 years young. We had just gone down to here state to celebrate with the entire family my daughter’s birthday. Since we still had several Covid regulations to follow we celebrated as best as we could. We flew back home and 6 days later she fell ill and then less than a week later she was gone. That started a world of emotional hurt for me. The last thing she did before we flew back was hugged me and told me that I had nothing to blame myself for. That hug, I can sometimes still feel that hug, it was different so I went back for another one. My spouse was able to capture that second hug on a picture. My mom was my super hero, there’s nothing mom couldn’t beat. Nothing mom didn’t have an answer for or words of wisdom just when I needed them and when I thought I didn’t. I grew up in a Christian home, she always in her own ways tried to guide me to stay in church and seek God. I in the other hand always questioned everything. In my teenage years I made it so difficult for both my parents. I wasn’t purposely trying to, I always just wanted to escape the stress, the bad news all the time, etc. My dad had cancer since I turned 15 till after I graduated high school. I saw God’s Love and mercy in the middle of it all and I turned my life to Him when I turned 18. Then I left church again and met my now wife. I write all that to lead to this. My mother was my rock, the person I would call and without saying a single word, she knew and she would have the perfect advice always. How can that be? She always quoted scripture and always told me to pray and trust God. “Seek God first son…” So when she passed away, I felt as if my whole world was turned upside down. I had my first panic attack right outside the hospital as we had received the news that her condition was worst and she had suffered 2 major strokes. I remember praying one night when I was around 17 and I very ignorantly warned God. “If you take my parents from me, I will make it my mission to tell the whole world that you are not real”… I thank Him for not striking me then and there. The nerve of that kid, I’m very ashamed of that prayer but that prayer came to mind when my mom passed away. I was telling myself, no there’s no way, my mom did not leave without saying good bye!. As we got to the hotel ( long story) I was telling me beautiful wife and children, where’s my mom’s phone?. I turned it on and I was browsing her pictures and there it was. Her beautiful face with the play symbol over it. I cried because I knew it. I pressed play, my spouse and children started watching it with me. I couldn’t believe her words, everything she was saying. Every ounce of anger or frustration I had just dropped off of me. “Lord, I don’t understand why you took her, but I thank you for every minute you allowed me to share with her as my mother.” That’s it, that’s all that I could say. After her funeral and once we got back home, the pain was there every day, I still felt as if I was alone even though I was surrounded by my beautiful wife and children. I started getting scared “what if I’m also sick” “what if” the what ifs began to control my life. Fast forward to July of 2022. My brother and father had come to visit us. We were in a restaurant and I began to feel something strange ( I didn’t know it was an anxiety attack). We finished diner and decided to window a bit, I began to feel ill. After a few minutes long story short the ambulance was called and I was taken to the E.R. . Doctors could not find something wrong, so they labeled it as GERD or anxiety. “Anxiety”? I remember asking. My stomach did not get better instead I kept going to urgent care E.Rs for 4 months. Through this process I was dealing with a lot of fears. What if, what if, what if?… I started searching in YouTube “anxiety” I came across pastor Craig Groeschel, after his sermon I downloaded the Bible app and went to their bible devotionals. I saw one that had the title “Anxiety (Part 1)” While going through the devotional, I was waiting on doctors and test etc. God guided me at the right time to an urgent care and the doctor saw me very weak at that point. He did some blood test and then said you know what let’s do this test. He gave me small cup and gloves, yeah it was a stool test. While waiting on those results, I had started listening to the devotional of Job. I finally got the results! It was positive for H. Pylori. My anxiety was at its highest! I googled Kris Langham, trying to find part 2. lol. I came across TTW app. I downloaded and began to read the word more, I began to do what my mother has been for years, I began to put God first. I thanked Him for every morning, because every night was a struggle to sleep, I kept thinking if it was my last night. I strongly believe that God has perfect timing, as I continued to do my treatment and waiting on further appointments with my GI. I kept studying and listening to the word every day, it became my obsession. I had gone through a lot of devotionals then I got an appointment to due a endoscopy and colonoscopy. When I came out of the imaging and got the results, I for the first time, can honestly say what Job said to God. “ I had only heard about You before, but now I have seen You with my own eyes” the doctor had found 2 polyps that were pre-cancerous and at my age the risk of turning into cancer were high given that most people won’t even get a colonoscopy until the age of 40. I have a lot to learn, I have a lot of studying to do. But I thank God for people like the folks at TTW that hear the calling and are willing to listen and follow. From a person like myself that doesn’t like reading much the audio definitely encourages me to dig deeper and read more on my own. I still struggle a bit with anxiety but thank GOD that He has full control. I’m sorry for the long comment. Maybe a video would have been faster lol. One day.

TTW has helped me cultivate a consistent bible reading habit, I've gained deeper insights into God's word, will and ways, and share same with work colleagues and friends. Thank you Pastor Kris and the TTW Team.

It’s not just any one plan, but all of what you offer in TTW. I enjoy sitting in my office each morning and listening to the readings and especially the interpretations that have really deepened my understanding of God’s word. It helps me face the each day, determined to be a better person, acceptable to God. Thank you so much for what all of you do. Wendell “Keith” Dale

I get up every morning at 4 am to read the Word and do devotionals. My husband now reads TTW with me. It’s been a wonderful journey. We’ve gone through the Bible with you at least twice. We love it and love spending time with you and learning more every time. Thank you so much Kris and your team. God bless you richly and continue to teach others through this wonderful app that God put on your heart and you persevered through! Love you brother

I've been a believer for most of my life, but there were always some books of the Bible that never really held a lot of meaning for me. While I knew that all scripture is God-breathed, I just had a hard time really getting my head or heart around a good handful of books ... UNTIL one of my best friends told me about Through the Word. Oh my! Suddenly, Leviticus and Numbers had so much to say to my heart! Daniel and Revelation became SO much less intimidating. The biggest one - in more ways than one :) - was Psalms. I knew I should be getting more encouragement from them, but only a handful ever resounded with me until TTW. Praise God for using TTW to make scripture come alive. I tell everyone to download this app!

I started using TTW several years ago and fell in love immediately. I couldn’t get enough and would often listen to many chapters each morning. It was so exciting to me to learn so much about God, how to live out my faith, and to understand the Bible in a way I never had before. I learned so many new things and would share them with my mom, who has been one of my biggest spiritual mentors. I felt so blessed and grateful and my life felt perfect. I thought I had it all together and that I understood God so well. I felt like a really good Christian who could be an example to others. Then my world came crashing down when my husband was diagnosed with colon cancer on September 1, 2021. He passed away exactly one month later on October 1st. In an instant, my life was turned upside down. My husband was our sole financial provider and I had four kids depending on me to get us through. Six months later, I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer and I found myself asking God, “where are you and why does life have to be so hard?” Through the last two years, I have learned what true dependence on God really looks like. All the Bible verses about God being our provider and telling us not to worry, took on a whole new meaning for me. I have no choice but to rely on God to provide everything for us and he literally has gotten us through every obstacle, every day since my husband passed. I have drawn so much closer to God through this journey that we are still on. TTW is my favorite app. It has taken me a while to come back to it and really dive into learning again, but I am so grateful for your teaching!!! You make it so easy to understand the Bible and how it relates to my life….that it’s not just old stories that aren’t relevant. I plan to share it with everyone who will listen to me. Thank you so much for all you do!!! You are showing me new ways every day to live out my faith and not just read it. You’ve helped me understand how to have a real and meaningful relationship with God. I am so grateful for you!!

TTW was shared to me by a friend. We are committed to going through it together. I love we can both go through it at different times but stay on point together.

Over Covid my 8th grade son and his friends started a Bible study. They STARTED in Revelation! Made since as it was such a scary time. I was always so intimidated and scared to read it but thought I better get on it just in case he comes to me. I was doing the Bible app at the time and asked my good friend if she knew of a good Bible study of Revelation. She suggested TTW. Not only was the Revelation study AMAZING I finally understood it. Even more exciting was JESUS speaking at the very end!!! I was SHOCKED and so relieved. I felt like Buddy the Elf. I KNOW HIM!!! 🤣 I was hooked on TTW ever since and have shared it with soooo many. I've also done Revelation multiple times because I just love it. I enjoy them all but find myself repeating some. (Rev. and Romans) I do TTW every morning and I'm a B sider! I also appreciate you encouraging people to study for themselves and not rely on you only as you are just a guide. I LOVE that. Thank you so much for what you do. It is making a HUGE difference.

My husband introduced me to Through the Word, and I've found it to be one of the best ways to delve deep into Scripture. We lead a Bible study at our church, and we used the Daniel TTW study to assist us. The study was especially helpful for the esoteric prophecies in Daniel. I plan to start the NT in a Year plan in 2024 with some friends from church and hope someday TTW will have an OT in a Year plan!

I started with journey 1. I am finally getting to understand what it is all about. Jesus! I never really understood the Bible because I never had it explained like Chris does. I would ask at church but never really got the answers. Thanks for opening my eyes to Jesus!

My name's is Ismael and I recently lost my girlfriend to an overdose on October 9th. I had learned through my 12 step program to rely on God but have never built a relationship with him. After a week or so of questioning and even expressing my anger towards God, something told me I needed to completely turn my life over to him. I was too tired and defeated to even care to carry on..I got baptized but then was struck with the inability to feel God through scripture. My friend then recommended your app and it has gotten me closer than any other method. When I get sad or start being pestered by the thought that life isn't worth it, I turn the app on and go about my day. Any time anyone asks about how I learned scripture, I immediately refer this app to them

Through the Word has helped me so much on my journey through the word of God. When I first started earlier this year back in April as a sophomore in college, I had no idea how to study the word. I had no idea what a lot of it was saying, and it was so hard for me to make connections. That's when I made it a goal of mine to eventually go through the whole Bible by alternating between an Old Testament and New Testament book. I started with Exodus after experimenting with another YouVersion plan going though the Genesis. Once I started, I was hooked. Pastors Kris and Peyton made it so easy for me to understand what the Bible was trying to tell me, especially when I was going through Numbers. Through the Word helped me through a very depressing time in my life when I was having suicidal thoughts during the summer before my junior year at Texas A&M University. Because of Through the Word, I have felt closer to God then ever. Reading my Bible for an hour every morning has changed my life in so many ways. Thank you to Pastor Kris and Pastor Peyton for starting me on my journey and thank you to Through the Word for continuing to teach me that the Bible has something for everyone even a college kid with Cerebral Palsy like myself. Looking forward to continuing my journey through the word as I start Deuteronomy. God bless you all!

I am a daughter, wife, mother, Grammaw I’ve been in church actively for over 32 years. I was told about through the word about a year ago and since then I can barely turn it off. You are with me every morning while I get ready for work. I have never had the understanding I have now for the word of God. Thank you so much for doing this podcast. It has given me a deeper connection to the word of God. And has helped me so much in my own personal Bible studies.

After the loss of my husband under some shocking circumstances, I felt lost and alone. I had my drop to my knees moment when the coroner came to gather him. I went from married, mom of a junior in hs to widowed, single mother in an instant. Needless to say the world was spinning and I was spinning with it. In the midst of it I heard his voice calling me and I took off running to find Him. I've always wanted to read the Bible in its entirety, but couldn't get past the begats. I was introduced to TTW by at the time, a friend, who has now become my husband. As I was searching for God, as was he, God was bringing us together. We are on separate studies currently I'm working on journey number 5 and he's working his way through Ecclesiastes. We attend Bible study at our beloved church, and study together the chapter of discussion. TTW has prompted so many deep conversations with my husband, I can't help but share it with whomever I can....including my now 20 year old daughter who has, as of this past Wednesday, dedicated her life to Jesus PRAISE GOD!!! We've deemed her testimony title "Saved by Chili". That's a story for another time, but it is incredible! Thank you for giving us the tools to knit our little family back together. We have 3 other children from his previous marriage that I know, in His timing, will have a testimony just as powerful as our 20yr old...and I truly believe TTW will be part of their foundation of understanding the amazing message of salvation and grace written within the pages of God's word. Thank you for being apart of our story, and helping to satisfy the craving of understanding who our God is. Keep those mind blowing revelations coming, we can't get enough!!!! Much love from Magnolia, Texas!
After the loss of my husband under some shocking circumstances, I felt lost and alone. I had my drop to my knees moment when the coroner came to gather him. I went from married, mom of a junior in hs to widowed, single mother in an instant. Needless to say the world was spinning and I was spinning with it. In the midst of it I heard his voice calling me and I took off running to find Him. I've always wanted to read the Bible in its entirety, but couldn't get past the begats. I was introduced to TTW by at the time, a friend, who has now become my husband. As I was searching for God, as was he, God was bringing us together. We are on separate studies currently I'm working on journey number 5 and he's working his way through Ecclesiastes. We attend Bible study at our beloved church, and study together the chapter of discussion. TTW has prompted so many deep conversations with my husband, I can't help but share it with whomever I can....including my now 20 year old daughter who has, as of this past Wednesday, dedicated her life to Jesus PRAISE GOD!!! We've deemed her testimony title "Saved by Chili". That's a story for another time, but it is incredible! Thank you for giving us the tools to knit our little family back together. We have 3 other children from his previous marriage that I know, in His timing, will have a testimony just as powerful as our 20yr old...and I truly believe TTW will be part of their foundation of understanding the amazing message of salvation and grace written within the pages of God's word. Thank you for being apart of our story, and helping to satisfy the craving of understanding who our God is. Keep those mind blowing revelations coming, we can't get enough!!!! Much love from Magnolia, Texas!

Thank all of you for your amazing messages and plans, Through the Word staff and families. I truly appreciate all of your sacrifices, I didn't grow up going to church very often or even reading my bible, and was not pursuing my faith, I attempted to read the bible just My wife and I several times but we would always hit a wall at some point or not get the full scope of what was happening in scripture. until someone in my wife and I's connection group mentioned to me that they used an app that explained the books of the bible in great detail, So i downloaded this app and have been a raging fan ever since. I never knew that Bible study was allowed to be fun. I tell everybody I can to the point that my wife and some very close friends of mine roll their eyes when I get started talking about this app. I got my in-laws to start using it as well as my brother and his wife and my wife and I are walking through acts right now with the new together feature which we love. Now I am obsessed with trying to figure out more about our heavenly father, and all of his servants. I made it my goal to complete through the word in a year, as I drive around the DFW area a bunch for my job. I always look forward to turning it on and listening a little more about God's design. Lastly These Teachers I cannot thank you enough, The Holy Spirit used your teachings to convinct me to seek baptism, and I was Baptized this last August 2023, at 24 years old and have been growing in my faith every single day. Now I am volunteering for our youth ministry during the week, donating to my church so they can build their own church building, and playing Basketball with church leadership on Friday mornings, all things if you told me a year ago are things I am doing much less, wanted to do, I would've called you crazy. I know ultimately It Is Christ who saved me, as he does all of us, but please don't discount your part in it as well. I cannot express how grateful I am enough to all of you. I started off with the goal to read the bible in a year using this app, and I am happy to report I am 62% of the way though my first official Maiden voyage through Scripture With 809 guides completed 87% of the new testament and 55% of the old testament completed. with my start date in August. This is a considerable increase from reading about one chapter a week though church or my at home studies with my wife. ps. Tell Sandy Adams I've stolen quite a few of his jokes. psps. Could I suggest putting a feature in the progress tab of having a date when you first downloaded the app in the progress & Favorites section as a way to convict people to see how far they've come from the exact day they downloaded the app. I could probably fill up a book with how much this Christ has helped and changed me through His word and this app so I will leave this here, so hopefully one of you might seek the gospel as I have and thousands of others come join the fun!

I just finished John, with Peyton Jones. What a privilege. How God applied each teaching to my situation everyday, such as when I had to leave one church and God sent me elsewhere to be fed and Shepherded. GOD reminded me of the parishes and how they didn't shepherd right. When I lost a dear friend the teaching was on how Jezus wept over Lazarus. Also Peyton, I have been a nurse for 30 years and a womens Bible study teacher, I can relate to seemingly senseless deaths, but also the incredible privilege of walking people to the edge of heaven, and comforting the grieving with the comfort I have received, and the priveledg3 of suffering with and for Christ as momentary affliction. I am so grateful for my friend Anneke Reeves who introduced me to this podcast, I try to listen everyday as I go for my morning walk and come back refreshed physically and spiritually thank you for your faithful service.

I started Through The Wod because my husband and I did a devotional on YouVersion. Loved it. We have been hooked on both! All the teachers are great! We love the hidden song titles and the 80's references! Please keep on keeping on!

I love this app! A friend had shown me this app over a year ago. I have never understood God’s word before this. I spent 12 years in a Baptist church and feel as though I never learned all that I could. I am on journey 6 and my unbelieving husband gets up every morning with me prepares our coffee and sits down to hear my Bible study. We discuss it and I pray and he sits silently. My daughter also has downloaded the app and does a study every morning while at the gym. Thank you all for sharing your gentle words and explaining each chapter to me and family!!

This app has transformed my entire Bible reading experience words cannot express how grateful I am for the explanation of each and every chapter you give it has helped me to understand and learn about God in a way I never imagined it has literally brought me to my knees especially the book of Hosea that I just finished reading I was struggling with sin in my life. The sin of fear doubt and worry I couldn’t shake it off God has set me free through your teaching and the Word of God. Thank you . I recommend this app to my family and anyone else who is looking for a better way to understand His word

I first came across Through the Word on my Bible app. My mom had just passed away, I had a 10 day old baby, and I was sinking fast. My cousin suggested the Bible app and some devotionals on grief and loss. I dove head first - some devotions I did numerous times - anything to make sense of what was happening in my life. My obsession then turned to heaven, and I found the TTW study on Revelation. I listened to it over and over (and yes Pastor Kris, I will meet you at the base of the Tree of Life, first Thursday, at 2pm!). I wanted to know more… I downloaded the app and started on the Journeys. Now, I’ve stuck to it every day, currently doing the NT in a Year, and I make notes on every chapter as I go. I’ve always believed, but now I feel like I’m really developing a relationship with Jesus!

I want to thank you for the teachings in TTW. I can't start my day without it. It does help me to under stand the word more and how I need to live my life. Doing it with a friend is such a blessing. Thank you again.

Hello.My name is Brenda.I am from Kenya.I bumped into TTW on You version Bible app when I wanted to study the book of Genesis.It felt like I was reading Genesis for the first time ever!The book was explained in so much detail that I paid attention to things I would have likely overlooked. I was specifically touched my Sandy Adam's teaching on the book of Job. I was going through a rough season in life at the time and Pastor Sandy's explanation shifted my whole view and I got out of the dark place I was in mentally,emotionally and spiritually.

I was raised in church and always went to church but never read my Bible outside of church. In 2022 we lost our 5th child. I was determined not to let it turn my heart bitter to God, and I had the thought that I've never read the Bible all the way through. I had the youverse app and searched Genesis study and through the word Genesis explained popped up. I enjoyed it so much that I downloaded the through the word app. There are so many things I didn't know that I have learned. The chapter by chapter explanation helps with understanding. I still haven't read the whole Bible yet but am enjoying working on it. God did bless us with our rainbow baby in July 2023 and he's my little Bible study buddy. I start my day with through the word and read through the chapter for that day in a few different versions. Your ministry aided God in helping me grow closer to him instead of running away from him in the hardest thing we had ever went through.

Honestly, this is an eye opener for me. Very inspirational and reveal the character of God. I am really touched and blessed. TTW is undoubtedly powerful and insightful. Thank you.

The biggest revelation for me in this journey was Romans 5 - 8 and Galations 6. We seem to have 3 options in the way we live. 1) to indulge our flesh and live lawlessness, 2) to live by a set of rules or moral compass. Both Christians and non Christians can live this way or a combination of both. But what this Journey crystallised out for me was that as believers God wants us to live neither of those two ways but the third way, living by the Spirit, in touch with the Spirit of God each moment, now that is exciting. Thankyou

TTW has had an enormous impact on my marriage. My husband and I are often rushed off to work before 5 AM, but we both listen to the same episode of TTW each morning on our way to work and discuss it when we get home. We have already made it through the New Testament and are now working our way through the old. My husband even made us a spreadsheet that planned out the year. I love how close we have drawn to God and, in turn, to each other.

It has brought my focus to Jesus What I mean is I look forward to spending time with pastor Chris, and he brings the word of God to light through his teachings ( and humor) I start my day " everyday" with through the Word the scriptures that follow and journalling afterwards giving myself deeper understanding of God's word and giving me a positive start every day for year's now. I know it's God that works through this Ministry and even though I may not be a donor I am a beneficiary of all you do and I give all of you my thanks those upfront and those behind the scenes, Thank you for all you do.

I am just beginning my time with TTW and I’m already hooked. A friend prompted me to try it and I am so glad I did. As a Néw Christian, I am so grateful to have these teachings for they bring a depth and greater understanding than only reading the Bible can. Thank you.

Karen Edwards
I started studying in Ephesians before my week vacation at Thanksgiving. There were problems of my own making with a co-worker. Listening to not only the A Side, but the B Side has really made an impact on how I perceive this co-worker and how I treat her. I’m ashamed and have repented of my treatment of her. She is very young and needs a mentor not a dictator. God reminded me that I need to be her teacher. So, I’ve started with that and this week has been so much more fun with her than I thought it would be. Thank You, God, for Kris and all his friends who sacrifice their time for Through the Word ministries. It has truly changed my life.

Thank you! Thank you! TTW is so easy to keep the Word in your heart and mind daily. Life gets busy and it’s easy to put off Bible study thinking I’ll do it before I go to bed. But I can take TTW with me on a trip in the car, listen while I’m working in the house alone or while I’m walking the dog. It has kept the Word close and makes other Bible study easier. I’ve enjoyed the sometimes different way to look at some scriptures. Makes me look at why I believe and strengthened my faith. God is so good! I thank Him often for you and your ministry. God bless you and continue to preach the word.

Thank you Kris, this app is amazing. I like everything about it. Jesus is always at the center in our life, the Gospel brings hope, wisdom, joy, love, compassion and health. Jesus is awesome, all true. Sometimes I picture myself being in the crowd where Jesus was passing through, and if I could just reach to touch a corner of his garments… I know I still have a chance now, Jesus says so.

I have been using the TTW app for a few years now and love it. I finished the OT in 2022 and the NT in 2023 and was planning to go back and re listen to the OT but decided to try out your 19 journeys. So far - great. They certainly jump around a lot and I am trying to figure out why they do that. I would really be interested in a chronologically written OT. I have read the Bible in chronological order and found it so much more understandable and meaningful in my faith walk. But to hear you do it in a chronological presentation would be awesome. I know that it is a costly venture. I try to financially support your ministry and will continue to do so. Thanks so much for your ministry.

Thank you so much for this app! I have just raced through the entire Bible eating up everything I can learn in just a few months. I will start again tomorrow since I'm sure I missed a lot along the way. There is so much meat in this app and there's no way I can absorb it all at once but I intend to chew on it daily. I tell all my friends about this app. I highly recommend it. My friends who have joined tell me that they love it as well. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

This plan gives me a sense of peace. It helps to get an understanding of how to listen to God when he speaks. How to be faithful to his word. How he answers your deepest prayers in his time not yours. It teaches you to praise God even in your trials and tribulations.

TTW has given me insight to passages I have read 100 times before and find nuggets of gold that I missed. It gives me a place to go and know that Gods word is spoken, and I am growing from everything I learn to want to please my God daily.

When I first started listening to Through the Word, I knew it would be perfect for my Sunday school class. We were planning to study the book of Romans, so we began our lessons with Bible reading and the explanation. We had lively discussions based on the teachings. What a great tool it proved to be! Thank you so much.

I am so thankful for this study on law and grace! Through it I have truly seen how I have slipped from grace to trying to do this on my own. The teaching is clear, helpful and beneficial to the listener.

A friend from church recommended TTW. I have just finished Numbers and have never enjoyed or been so enthralled while reading through Numbers. Almost everyday there was something from the commentary that gave me pause or caused an actionable change in my heart, mind or life. I can not recommend this app enough!

I have read Romans a hundred times but ttw has again opened my eyes to "new" meaning from an "old" text. Im very happy to see that simplicity is better in a world that demands complicated answers.

This plan puts a smile on my face 😊 . This plan is also inspiring ,and up lifting . Nehemiah 8:10 the joy 🥹 of the Lord is our strength . This time of the year can be depressing . Psalm 139 is uplifting . Thanks for sharing this plan. I read my Bible , it is more enjoyable with others .

TTW has been the best thing for my husband and me to go through the bible regularly together. For years my husband found reading the Bible or going to studies a problem, but now it is he who looks forward to our mornings listening together.

I love the way Pastor Kris & his friends break down the Bible. They go through each book, each chapter, each verse & break it down so I can grasp what God is saying.

Through The Word App has really impacted me. Helped to listen to God's word even while actively working. I listen to books of the Bible explained in an interesting and intriguing manner. I also pick and listen to topics. I've shared this app with my busy friends God bless the TTW team.

I have read the Bible through for the last 5 years. At the beginning of this year I decided to do through the word with my daily reading. This has been life changing for me! I have been able to go deeper into the word, understanding what God’s word says. I love Pastor Chris! He adds humor I get lol! I use TTW with my Sunday school lesson and actually anytime I am in God's word I am in Through the word! I’m so thankful for a resource that shares truth.

My family listens to a chapter a night at bedtime. We have been going through the book of Matthew. The other night we listened to chapter 27 and how God poured his wrath on Jesus for our sins. To hear what Jesus endured humbled all of us. We sat stunned and my teenage children were asking questions that demonstrated their awe and gratitude of His sacrifice. It was a moment that only the Holy Spirit could have ushered in.

I have only started using this app, book of Genesis, why not? Start at the beginning! I think is brilliant! Well explained but also gives you room to reflect and research further. Thank you Pastor Kris and the rest of the team.

It has opened my mind to Gods word. It has caused me to think differently about how to approach the word and how to study it. I share TTW with another brother at church by using my real life experiences.

The whole concept of the app is simply awesome. It has been of immense help in my journey with the Book of Daniel. I have recommended to Family and friends and their joy cannot be contained.

The story Jonah, has a great message in it, that being don't try to run from God. He will find you and use you even if you don't believe, like in Daniel with King Nebuchadnezzar, he turned him into an animal and made him truly believe. I really enjoy your teachers and the way they tell what was happening and in a way a layperson like myself can understand. I don't share my reading with others but I love the Lord Jesus and am asking Him everyday for him to give me an opportunity to share the gospel with someone, you see I'm a Door Dasher and I meet and greet many people in a day. He never fails me. Thank you TTW you rock

Like Peyton Jones, The way he explains scriptures. ACTS, exciting book. I’m Baptist, baptized in the Holy Spirit. I tell everyone they should check out TTW.

I've finished the book of Revelations. I feel it was very important to get a deeper understanding. I pray that this new understanding will help me to better share the importance of a relationship with our Savior now more than ever. Thank you Kris and everyone involved with this AWESOME ministry.

It has drawn me closer to God my father and strengthened my faith in God my father through Jesus my Lord. No one plan has done this for me. As a child of God, I have found that I can be both a lion and lamb for the word oh God. Not much more can I express except He is always there for me and with in the garden daily.

GOD IS ALWAYS WORKING FOR THE RIGHTEOUS !!! I am humbled and the presentation on Habakkuk has really been a blessing. I couldn't wait for the 4 days.....NO the presenter really had me waiting to be enlightened and encouraged. I leave with this that I MUST Wait for God to answer.....turmoil is raging and we don't understand...what happens around us. Good and bad impacts us emotionally and physically. God sees our tears and hears our groaning. Yahweh sees and hears and will respond....THE RIGHTEOUS MUST REMAIN FAITHFUL FOR THE SAKE OF OUR FAMILIES. Yahweh has done it before!!!🙌🙌 This kind of pain is not new to our generation as Habakkuk constantly reflects on past victories.......So cry out to God when the end of our pain and hardship seems very distant. The oppressors in your workplace will reap their reward but so will the FAITHFUL 🙌🙌. Wow, I have always loved to read the section that speaks to praising God when the fig tree does not bud in Chapter 3. I realise that I have more appreciation for it now because the context is real to me now. They will swell and burst but we rejoice and trust YAHWEH, who is NOT silent BUT is working silently 🙂 God and the word is who we should take our misunderstandings and pain to. Habakkuk approached God confused, disappointed and frustrated but left renewed and with a new conviction to PRAISE through the storm and sunamis. HELP ME TO TRUST YOU MORE LORD.

This plan has help me stay in the word. I know the amount of word I have in me is how much faith I have. So I need daily doses. Me and my family do it together. I am so sure it with people on the job.

TTW has actually been so helpful in building a relationship with Lord Jesus. I've shared this app with my siblings and they also found it very helpful. This is a life changing platform and I am thankful to the Lord for providing me such a good app. Jesus bless you.

I have really enjoyed this dry book.I learned not to complain about what God me to do(as much)

Angela Thomas
I just finished 1 Peter with TeDese Ross. It was packed with so much truth and Spirit that I had to linger in each chapter! It led me to read each chapter in various versions and pull out the few commentary books I have to dive even deeper. It helped me to unlearn (with the help of the Holy Spirit) things I had been taught IN Church That just were untrue and not based on the full understanding of Scripture. So thankful today (which happens to be thanksgiving) for TTW. For the truth that is shared and the encouragement for me to go even deeper in understanding God Word and to APPLY what I am leaning in my life.

Having read God's word several times before starting Through The Word ministry, I can say the commentary is not only true but extremely helpful!

I often share with friends and social media to share what God is doing through this ministry! Thank you all again for faithfully serving and I pray that God continues to bless this ministry and all who listen!!!🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🙌🙌🙌

I love the way the daily narrative and commentary helps me take a detailed look at various aspects of scripture as they continue to relate to the larger themes of the Biblical story, including the largest theme of all- GOD’s merciful grace and the love of Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. Thank you for your efforts in “sharing and spreading the Good News” in this remarkable, 21st century manner! May GOD continue to bless and guide your valuable ministry!✝️

I stumbled upon TTW while my daughter and I were searching for a daily solution for her to engage in the Word. My initial experience with God's Word was years ago when I discovered J. Vernon McGee and embarked on the Bible bus journey for five years. That however is not the best fit for a 16-year-old girl. Fortunately, she came across your app and quickly fell in love with it. Rarely does she miss a day without immersing herself in God's word, all thanks to TTW. Inspired by her enthusiasm, I decided to explore it and consider recommending it to others. To my delight, I too became a daily user and fell in love with the commentary and how user friendly the app is. TTW makes it so easy to engage in the Bible, there is really no excuse for believer not to be in the Word daily. Keep up the great work. My daughter, Jessie, and I will be listening.

This study has reinforced the need for me to get back to work to fulfill the ministry that God wants me to do. This ministry is to teach via Bible Study, teaching via sermons at the Community of Hope, being involved in share group, being involved in the various Emmaus Walks, Serving others, and many other doors that God has opened for me. Thank you very much for your TTW Ministry. It has changed my life and enhanced my understanding of the Bible.

I am not camera-ready so I’ll be sending this via text 😁 Journey #6 was excellent. Albeit a long journey, I loved the round table discussions for Proverbs, and I loved the teaching on the Psalms. They were both very practical. Actually all of the TTW teachings are practical, which is one of the reasons I enjoy them so much and continue starting my day with these devotionals. Thank you for all you do!

Ad o ventured through Nehemiah and Esther, I was reminded of the evidence of God’s true work in the invisible. Happy that he gives us glimpses of His work. Often times when I’m discouraged or questioning. Thank you for these audio devotionals and readings of God’s Word! Jill
