Frederica Mathewes-Green Biography

Frederica Mathewes-Green may speak about prayer at the Smithsonian Institution, keynote a national conference, and then lead a women’s retreat.

Mathewes-Green has appeared on National Public Radio, talking about the pro-life issue and talking about her faith. She’s been interviewed on TV from PrimeTime Live to PBS, CNN, Fox, and most major news shows; by the New York Times, the Washington Post, and most major newspapers; and by Diane Rehm, Janet Parshall, and many national radio shows.

Her work as a writer is just as diverse. Frederica reviews several films each month, and also replies to readers’ questions in a theological advice column for the Christian Reader. A regular contributor to Christianity Today, First Things and other magazines, she has been repeatedly selected for the annual Best Christian Writing award. The multi-faith web magazine Beliefnet.com regularly invites her to present the classic Christian perspective, and her opinion pieces are featured at National Review Online.

Mathewes-Green's versatility comes from her varied background—and an unusual spiritual journey. Raised in an intellectually sophisticated home, she became a feminist leader on her college campus. She marched against war and in favor of abortion rights. Though she eagerly explored world religions, she despised Christianity, and treated believers with contempt. “I went out of my way to try to destroy the faith of baby Christians,” she says.

Then a “Damascus Road” experience with the living Christ turned her worldview upside down (full story). A profound change began. Mathewes-Green attended Episcopal seminary alongside her husband, and went on to acquire decades of experience as a pastor’s wife, counselor and teacher. She is a mom to three children and a grandmom to five; a good-humored, natural person with a warm presence, she readily puts others at ease. She volunteers with the Radio Reading Network for the Blind, and gives much time corresponding with spiritual seekers who write to her website.
