We are a space for Australian Christian women to
gather, grow and be encouraged!
We believe Christians should use their gifts
to serve others, build up the Church
and reflect Jesus' love.
Christian Bookstore Campaign
Australian Christians live out their faith in a uniquely Australian context. Our culture, history, church life, and our challenges. If Christian bookshops make space for more Australian voices, they will help people find books that actually sound like their context and speak into their everyday lives. Fixing Her Eyes is calling upon all Christian booksellers to:
✔ Create a dedicated space for Australian Christian authors, including online
✔ Feature female authors on International Women’s Day & throughout Women’s History Month (March)
✔ Celebrate local voices shaping faith today in our context
Poetry - Faith
by Laura Tharion
Once, my faith was a tank,
conquerous and correct. Safe inside I saw a ruinous
world through a peephole.
Now, I tend her like a child sitting with me on the back step sharing a bag of grapes, watching the autumn rain water the welcome weeds
in our lush summer garden.
Later, I draw her a hot bath, then dinner, then bed. Her soft head tucked beneath my chin, she reaches in her sleep to grasp my
hair within her fingers.
Haven't Heard a Woman Preach Before?
We have a list of churches in Australia where women are preaching in Anglican, Baptist and others that we have connections with. You will find women in most Uniting and Pentecostal churches. Visit in person or look up their YouTube channel to see, listen and learn.

Dr Michael Bird in conversation
Listen to this conversation between Dr Mimi Haddad from CBE International and Dr Michael Bird as they discuss the tendency to read a few passages as silencing women for all time (1 Timothy 2:11–15; Ephesians 5:22ff; 1 Corinthians 14:34–36), while overlooking the many women who speak, teach, and lead throughout the Old and New Testaments, alongside Paul, and across church history.
It is a wonderful privilege to listen to these two friends. Hearing Michael Bird speak as a father will resonate with many of us with daughters. Spotify | iTunes or YouTube via Mutuality Matters
