Help us share the Gospel with families around the world 250,000 times each month.
Jesus used windflowers, seeds, and sparrows to teach life-giving lessons. Nat Theo teaches kids and families with the same method, teaching biblical truth through God's creation (Romans 1:20).
In 2025, families listened to Nat Theo lessons over 893,000 times across 169 countries. That number represents real children, real parents, and real conversations around kitchen tables, in minivans, and on hiking trails.
Every week, a team of seven prayerfully and passionately works behind the scenes to make lessons possible. Above and beyond time spent researching, writing, and recording, here are needs for 2026:
Help us reach more families with the Gospel. Every gift goes directly toward producing Nat Theo and reaching more families in the coming year.
We aim to present a clear Gospel message and invitation in at least one lesson each month, with a goal of presenting the gospel to families 250,000 times every month.
This means 10xing our current listenership to 1,250,000 per month, which we're on track to meet in two years, and know it means reaching families who don't yet know about Nat Theo.
One mom recently shared that her son accepted Christ after listening to a Nat Theo lesson. This summer I taught a week-long kids camp and shared the gospel ten times through ten different plants and creatures. At the end of the week, after hearing the Gospel through Scripture and examples in creation, 12 children chose to follow Jesus. Children are most likely to accept Christ between the ages of 4 and 14—that’s exactly the age range we’re serving.
- Post-production edits: $17,940
- Strategic, prayerful content creation (email, social media, blog): $15,780
- Administrative costs: $3,840
- Software costs: $2,845
These needs don't include curriculum development costs ($56,400 / year). We are grateful for our faithful business sponsors and Nat Theo Club members who help cover many of these costs. As we look to 2026, we sense the Lord opening new doors (including some exciting possibilities in print media!) and we’re asking Him to provide for our production costs so we can say “yes” to those opportunities.
Will you help us?

If a family presses “Play” for the very first time, we want them to hear the Gospel clearly. And for regular listeners to hear the Gospel consistently, along with lessons that disciple, build resilient faith, and give evidence for God.
Thank you for supporting Nat Theo as we reach families with the gospel and grow faith while exploring God's wild & wonderful world!
