# Audie Award for Faith-Based Fiction and Nonfiction

The Audie Award for Faith-Based Fiction and Nonfiction is one of the Audie Awards presented annually by the Audio Publishers Association (APA). It awards excellence in narration, production, and content for a religious or spiritual audiobook released in a given year. Before 2019, this was given as two distinct awards, the Audie Award for Inspirational and Faith-Based Fiction (awarded since 2003) and the Audie Award for Inspirational and Faith-Based Nonfiction (awarded since 1997), known as the Audie Award for Inspirational or Spiritual Title before 2007.
