Help Us Keep The Fire Burning

The Storied Outdoors exists to cultivate storytelling by capturing experiences in creation through reflection, wonder, and community. We tell stories that help us see the world with greater clarity and transparency for where we have been, are now, and will go.  Stories remain untold and unpreserved without the listening ears and hearts of our hosts, guests, and audience.

Nothing in the digital world exists or persists without the presence of human beings.

Our landscapes include gazing into flickering campfires, wading quiet streams, hunting over grassy fields, trekking mountain trails, and listening to stories from people all over the world whose lives have been shaped by adventure in God's creation. We’ve preserved stories of fishing and farming, hunting and conservation, parents and children, failure and redemption, craftsmanship and vocation, suffering and hope, faith and family.

Help others find adventure and write their own story

From Alabama quail fields to African mountains, from fly-fishing legends to parents instructing their children, our conversations keep returning to the same question:

What do our adventures reveal about the lives we are meant to live?

The Storied Outdoors believes creation is full of goodness and beauty, pointing beyond itself to the Creator and Author of every story. We are drawn to the outdoors to hear the echoes of God who made it.

‍When you give to The Storied Outdoors, you're helping create more than podcasts, essays, and films. You help preserve legacies, create purposeful adventures, build lasting communities, and empower others to find their place in God's larger story through writing and preserving their own meaningful stories. Someday, the gear will wear out, the photographs will fade, and adventures will become memories. However, the narratives are lasting.  

The stories we tell, and the people those stories shape, can become a legacy.

Your support keeps the fire burning and invites others to gather around the embers in the place we call the storied outdoors.

Join us in telling and preserving stories that matter.


Our Positive Impact

“As a minister and a new fly fisherman, I can relate to so much of your content. The show has inspired me to continue my pursuit of knowing the Creator through and in His natural creation. This Podcast is played every time I make the hour drive to my local trout stream. Keep up the good work!” — iTunes Review: Bmorgan82
