Worship In The Woods

Worship in the Woods is where faith meets the field. Hosted by Kayla Tyler Bowser, homeschooling mama, and Jesus-loving outdoor enthusiast, this podcast invites you to experience the presence of God in the stillness of the woods. Whether you’re in a deer stand, on a backroad, or by the water, you’ll find real conversations about hunting, fishing, motherhood, and following Jesus in every season, of everyday in rugged life. Because you don’t need a steeple to worship, you just need a willing heart and a place to be still. So grab your Bible and put on your boots… we’re going to the woods.

The Blood Trail: from the woods to the CROSS

In this episode of Worship in the Woods, we follow a hunter’s trail marked by blood and let it lead our hearts straight to the cross.

If you’ve ever tracked a deer, you know the quiet, reverent weight of following that blood trail. Today, we look at how that mirrors the trail Jesus left for us, one soaked in mercy, love, and redemption. Grab your boots and your Bible....
