About this audiobook
Explore the incredible work of the Lord in the hearts and lives of women in the Muslim world! In these gripping stories of Christ's presence straight from the underground church, Pastor Tom Doyle and his wife, JoAnn, show you how women in Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Iran are leading their communities to faith in Jesus—and how you can too!
Despite enormous risks to themselves and their families, former Muslim women are now influencing their husbands and their children and bringing others to faith in Jesus Christ. No matter where they live, these women are the God-ordained spiritual gatekeepers of their families. Even though the level of oppression that women face under Islam is unfathomable to many in non-Muslim nations, these brave women stop at nothing to share their faith.
The Doyles believe that women are a major reason why more Muslims than ever are coming to faith in Christ. Over the years they have discovered that once God sets a Muslim woman free, she becomes an unstoppable force for God. Women Who Risk takes readers into Muslim homes in Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran, and other hot spots to see the power of Christ at work. This incredible book contains:
- Inspirational stories straight out of the underground church—stories you don’t get on the news
- Examples of the miraculous works of God happening in the Muslim world
- The experiences of pastors who have worked for the past twenty-five years in the Middle East
- A clear call to action sounding the alarm to the body of Christ
- Motivation for all Christians to boldly share their faith with family and friends
The stories of these women are both breathtaking and heart-rending. Living on the edge, these women spread the gospel without fear, and the victory of the gospel is thrilling for all to see. If you’re wondering if God still performs miracles or are afraid your life can't make an impact, then this is the book for you.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book was SO amazing!!!! These women’s stories are so moving!! Know that we se praying for all of you out there . I am 13 and for 2 1/2 years (2014-2016) my family served in Madaba (close to Amman in Jordan) as missionaries. It was an incredible year, and though I was only 8 when we left I still have lots of great memories, and what I don’t remember I’ve heard and there are quite a few incredible stories. We love that country and many of the people there are like family. So we would love to go back there if God gave us the opportunity. Anyways, we love the country and the people there (as I said before:-) It is incredible to see how God is using the looked down women, women who are treated like animals, to spread His gospel. I pray that God continues touching hearts through these women!!!!
This book talks about the power of the Holy Spirit. Miracles, visions. It’s packed with unforgettable testimonies. God is good!!!!!! This book is a must read. It strengthened my faith and it will yours. Thank you Mr and Mrs Doyle for writing this book. Thank you Dinah, Amira, Katie, Norrie, and all the others with sharing these stories . And above all else Jesus! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Blessings in Christ,

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A collection of remarkable stories of how Jesus reached out to women in various circumstances. Inspirational how many women in oppressed places are standing courageously.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5What an encouragement & inspiration for us Christian’s in the west. The gospel of Jesus was very clearly articulated and there was nothing added to the gospel message of Jesus Christ alone! The testimonies of the faithful women, we’re so convicting. They’re willing to sacrifice everything, including their lives, for the sake of Christ and his message. They are definitely the fragrant aroma of Christ in the darkness of Islam. Thank you for sharing your stories and teaching us how to reach out to women in Islam.
