Deborah Wittmier has taught the Bible since 1984.

Deborah founded Deborah Ministries International (DMI) in 1996 and continues to serve as its president. DMI reaches numerous denominations and cultures through leadership training seminars, evangelistic crusades, and Bible schools in more than 20 countries across the world. The vision of DMI is to minister in answer to Hosea 4:6, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge." Her teaching is motivated by the scripture, "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free" (John 8:32). Deborah and her husband Harvey founded and pastor Crossfire, a Church without Walls. They have been married for thirty-seven years and reside in Highlands Ranch, Colorado.

Knowing this to be true, what about all the good works you do as a Christian; do they matter at all? This pivotal question has many people either mistakenly trying to earn salvation, or working to maintain it. However, if you can understand where your works fit into God's plan, you will be freed from the confusion and futility of what the Bible calls dead works. Deborah's book untangles the concepts of salvation by grace and reward for works. Learn what the Bible says about the various heavenly rewards promised to Christians and how to earn them. This book will help you in the ultimate preparation for the moment when He says, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant!" You have only one life to live, so learn how to get the maximum eternal benefit out of this life!
