Nancy Leigh DeMoss (* 1958) ist eine US-amerikanische Autorin, Radiomoderatorin und Bibellehrerin im konservativ-evangelikalen Raum, die vor allem durch das Mediennetzwerk „Revive Our Hearts“ bekannt wurde. Inhaltlich vertritt sie eine Theologie der Buße, Demut und persönlichen Heiligung sowie ein komplementaristisches Rollen- und Eheverständnis. Bibellesern gilt sie als Vertreterin einer konservativen Schriftauslegung, wobei ihre Seelsorgekonzepte zur Unterordnung in der Ehe von Kritikern wegen unzureichenden Schutzes für Frauen in destruktiven Beziehungen hinterfragt werden.
