Nat Theo Nature Lessons Rooted in the Bible

by The Natural Theology Project

Have you ever wondered why God made mosquitoes? How an axolotl can regrow parts of its body? If a snail is born with a shell? Or why an octopus has three hearts? Welcome to Nat Theo (Nat = Natural, Theo = Theology), a Bible-based nature and science podcast for curious kids and their families! Join Master Naturalist, Bible teacher, and author Eryn Lynum as we explore fascinating creatures, incredible science, and the truths of God’s Word. Through engaging stories, surprising facts, and memorable nature lessons, children discover how creation points to its Creator. From tiny insects and backyard birds to capybaras, axolotls, dinosaurs, oceans, weather, space, and more, each episode helps families develop a biblical worldview while growing in faith and wonder. Whether you homeschool or attend public, private, or Christian school, Nat Theo makes a fun and educational addition to your family’s week. It’s science rooted in Scripture, nature study filled with wonder, and biblical truth you can carry with you wherever they go. The Natural Theology Project helps families nurture faith and wonder through Bible-based nature study, science curriculum, and the Nat Theo podcast.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

My kids love learning the facts and information and how those creations are connected to the Bible. Unfortunately the ads are too distracting for them and they break up the podcast too much. I wish they were just in the beginning before the podcast or at the end.

Momma of 4 under 4 · Dec 2024

I stumbled on this podcast and I’m so happy to have done so. This is the perfect blend of science and Bible for my young family. I love the quick Bible lesson she adds to go with what she’s teaching on in the science part. Thank you so much for putting Good quality podcasts out there into the world.
