What does it imply when the angels say the earth is full of God's glory?

Birds of the Kingdom 3: What the Birds are Saying--an introduction to the wonders of birdsong

A lecture given at L’Abri Fellowship in Southborough, Massachusetts. For more information, visit https://southboroughlabri.org/ by Ben Keyes Other than its ability to fly, one of the most noticeable things about a bird is all the noise it makes! Birds make a huge variety of vocalizations, many of which serve specific practical purposes. This third lecture ins the series will be an introduction to the complex world of birdsong. Similarly to Parts 1 and 2, the goal will be to demonstrate that the deeper we delve in our study of creation, the more we will learn about the wisdom of the Creator. Observation, wonder, and worship can all join hands as we reflect on birds and their ability to sing. The Copyright for all material on the podcast is held by L'Abri Fellowship.
