Katie Sampias is author of Her Story of Jesus:

Her Story of Jesus is a rich blend of research and fiction that brings the stories of women in the Gospel to life. Katie Sampias poignantly displays the love of Christ toward women during his ministry on Earth and the dignity he gave to the marginalized and voiceless. Using what we know and see in the Gospels, along with her Christian fiction take, Katie writes the stories of women mentioned so other women can draw nearer to the heart of Christ.
