For a month, Tim and Elliot have been experimenting with Creationtide, an unfamiliar corner of the church calendar that invites us to pay closer attention to the natural world. Their adventures take them birdwatching with an implausible number of guides, searching for fossils on the Yorkshire coast, glimpsing suspiciously brief whale backs, staring into space and listening in on the secret world of bats.
Along the way, they wonder whether learning to pay attention might change us, whether nature is something to extract from or receive as a gift, and what any of this has to do with God. Plus, Elliot reveals the truth about naughty widgeons, Tim finds the Sun surprisingly disappointing, and a bat offers some unexpected flattery.
If you’re enjoying Homegrown Faith and want to support what we’re doing, you can head over to our Patreon page for bonus episodes and a bit of behind-the-scenes goodness.
If signing up isn’t your thing but you’d still like to send some encouragement our way, a quick rating or review on your podcast app makes a big difference.
Since the podcast is all audio, if you’d like to see what we’ve been up to, you can find photos and little glimpses of our journey over on Instagram and Facebook.
And if you’d like to share your own experiences, ask us a question, or suggest a practice for a future episode, you can drop Tim an email here.
Like the podcast, our theme music is also homegrown—written by Elliot and produced by our friend Wilderthorn.
