When women hear Scripture spoken in a voice that sounds like them, God feels close. But for millions of Spanish-speaking women, this experience isn’t possible.

And that’s why the story of Jhoana and Eva matters.

When Jhoana was in college, tragedy struck her family. She was suddenly abandoned and became homeless in Mexico.

A young woman named Eva, who was living in prostitution, saw her on the street and decided to protect her. She brought Jhoana into her small room, shared food with her, and walked her to school each morning, telling her that she was meant for more. Eva was deeply wounded, had limited education, and lived in constant survival mode. Yet despite her own suffering, she became a shelter for Jhoana. Eva passed away in 2004, never having heard Scripture spoken to her in a voice that felt safe, familiar, or loving.

Jhoana often wonders:

“What if Eva had heard God’s love in a voice she could understand—in Spanish and without judgment? What if she had heard hope?”

Across Latin America, more than 35 million adults cannot read, and women—especially older women, rural women, and indigenous women—carry the greatest burden of low literacy. Even among mothers who can read, life is full and exhausting, and for most, listening while working, commuting, or caring for children is the only way they can consistently engage with Scripture. Meanwhile, young Latina women—many highly educated—are living a fast-paced digital life where audio is their preferred way to consume content.

Across all three generations, audio is the doorway to God’s Word.

This is why her.BIBLE is recording the Spanish NIV with female voices from across the Latin world, offering every woman—regardless of education, age, or background—a way to truly hear God’s love.

Today, as Jhoana helps record her.BIBLE in Spanish, she remembers Eva, and looks forward to other women hearing the hope that her friend never could. The New Testament is already underway. Matthew, Ephesians, and Philippians are recorded and in post-production. But millions of women are still waiting because more funds are needed to continue.
