There Is Now an Audio Version of the Bible Read Exclusively by Women

December 2, 2020 by Staff

(ChurchLeaders) For the first time, there is an audio version of the Bible read entirely by women. The project is the brainchild of Ann White, the founder and executive director of Courage For Life (CFL), and came about because of her work with female inmates. 

“In working with at-risk women, we know through research and our own experience that you want to use gender-specific treatment,” said Ann White in an interview with Christianity Today. “You don’t have a man go in and work with a woman who has been victimized by a man. We thought the same thing could be true for teaching the Bible to a woman with past trauma. She can better hear Scripture from a woman’s voice.”
