Lita Cosner, B.A.

Biblical studies, New Testament Greek (USA)

Lita Cosner obtained a B.A. (Summa Cum Laude (= First Class Honours)) in Biblical Studies from Oklahoma Wesleyan University in 2008, where she won the Koinē Greek Scholar Award. She is now studying for a M.A. in New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, which awarded her the Carl F.H. Henry Scholarship, “Trinity’s highest award”, as well as the Helga Henry Scholarship, “given to outstanding women who desire to pursue a theological education”.

A Christian since 2002, she has had an interest in apologetics ever since finding the CMI website, which played a role in her salvation (see her own account). Now she works part-time for CMI as a writer and information officer.
