    Special Episode: How Do Pigeons Deliver Mail? (Guest: Eryn Lyman from Nat Theo Podcast Show)
    Feb 2 2026

    SPECIAL GUEST INFORMATION:

    Explore God's Wild & Wonderful world on Nat Theo: Nature Lessons Rooted in the Bible, a podcast for kids and families: https://erynlynum.com/nattheo

    Have you ever heard of a bird delivering mail? We recently learned about Cher Ami, a homing pigeon who served in World War I and delivered a life-saving message that helped save many soldiers. Today, we are deep diving into how God designed homing pigeons with this incredible ability to find their way across the sky. This lesson comes straight from Nat Theo: Nature Lessons Rooted in the Bible, a podcast for kids and families.

    Here's what we'll be learning:

    • Why Were Pigeons Used to Deliver Messages?
    • What Is Magnetoreception?
    • How Do Pigeons Find the Right Address?
    • Do Humans Have a Homing Instinct?
