Have you ever wished for a “Simpler” way to explore the Bible's depth?

Maybe you've wanted to understand the Bible better but felt lost. Maybe you've tried to go through it in a year and stalled out somewhere in Leviticus or Numbers. You're not alone, and it's nothing to feel guilty about. Sometimes you just need someone to walk through it with you.

Each day, Ryan, teaching pastor at The 456, reads a short section of Scripture with the text right on screen, marks it up as he goes, and explains what's happening and why it matters. It takes about 12–15 minutes. Prefer to listen? Every day is also a podcast episode.

Ryan first designed this course to give his own boys a solid foundation in the Bible. It covers more than 800 chapters in the Bible, with the context you need to follow the big story.

Go through the Bible in a year, one simple day at a time.


  1. Watch or listen. Ryan's short video walks you through today's passage, about 12–15 minutes. Same teaching, also on the podcast.

  2. Go deeper, if you want. Each day has a written lesson and extra Scripture references. They're optional next steps, not homework.

  3. See the big picture. A short weekly summary video helps connect the dots.

Watch in the Bible in a Year course or on YouTube, or listen wherever you get podcasts (Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon, iHeartRadio). Miss a day? No guilt. Just pick back up.


Say goodbye to overwhelm. With Ryan as your guide, you'll see not just the stories of the Bible, but the bigger story they tell together. And when a stretch gets hard, you'll have someone walking through it with you.
