She graduated from University of Sydney with a degree in English. Caine also attended and graduated from Hillsong College in 1992.

Ministry

Caine grew up in the Greek Orthodox Church in Australia.[3][4][5] She first volunteered as a youth worker, when she helped establish Hills District Youth Service.[4] She went on to become the director of a nationwide youth ministry, Youth Alive.[4] In 2008 she founded the A21 Campaign with her husband Nick, who is now the CEO of A21 and pastor of Zoe Churches. A21 is a 501(c)(3) non-profit, non-governmental organization which fights to "abolish slavery everywhere, forever".[11][13][15][8] With 19 locations in 14 countries, their aim is to prevent human trafficking through awareness, to protect trafficked victims in their shelters and transition homes, to prosecute traffickers and strengthen the legal response to human trafficking, and to partner with law enforcement, individuals, corporations, official bodies, and other non-governmental organizations to end human trafficking in the 21st century.[15][8][16][17]

In January 2015, Caine founded Propel Women,[12][5] an organization that believes in the passion, purpose, and potential of every woman everywhere. Propel Women exists to honor the calling of every woman, empower her to lead, equip her for success, and develop a sense of God-given purpose.

Caine has also been featured on several international television shows, including TBN's Praise the Lord, Life Today with James Robison, Better Together, Huckabee, Joyce Meyer's Enjoying Everyday Life, and Daystar.[18][19][20][21][22] In October 2016, TBN launched a weekly TV show featuring Caine called Equip & Empower with Christine Caine.[23]

In May 2018, author Carey Scott sued Caine and her publisher, HarperCollins Christian Publishing, for alleged copyright infringement of Scott's work in Caine's book Unashamed (2016) and in a derived work Unshakeable (2017). A settlement was reached in October 2018 and later printings of the works credited Scott's work or were reworded.[24][25][26]
