Women of the Bible Founder, Olivia WoodfordScripture comes to life through four powerful dramas Olivia Woodford created that portray Women of the Bible as they participate in events surrounding the birth, death and resurrection of Jesus. For more than a decade, Olivia has performed these one-woman plays and led retreats at churches and schools of all denominations throughout the country.

The plays are universal in their appeal and communicate the heart of Jesus’ life and teachings. Written from the women’s point of view, this great story is told with depth and relevancy, and offers a fresh perspective on the life and teachings of Jesus. The plays also describe the culture, traditions and daily routines of people in Israel 2,000 years ago. Audiences experience what it would have been like to live at the time when the Romans ruled and Jesus walked the desert roads to give his message.

Retreats exploring Women of the Bible focus on having participant’s explore the women in the gospels that are well-known as well as those who are briefly mentioned. Through reading designated Bible passages and having Olivia perform excerpts from her plays, the roles of women in Israel, Jesus’ ministry and in church communities today is contemplated and discussed.

If you are interested in hosting a retreat or performance and would like an information packet or wish to purchase a CD of one of the plays, please CONTACT US with your request.
