Connie Witter, founder of Because of Jesus Ministries is a speaker, teacher, and the author of numerous Bible studies and books that focus on Jesus and His finished work.

This began her journey out of darkness into the marvelous light of Jesus and His unconditional love and grace. Whether ministering in a church, conference, prison or at her weekly Bible study, Connie's passion is for everyone's heart to be awakened to their true identity as a blessed & loved child of God!

Sandra McCollom is the co-founder, with her husband Steve, of Freedom Living Ministries. She’s a speaker and author of I Tried Until I Almost Died – From Anxiety & Frustration to Rest & Relaxation. For the first 34 years of her life, as a Christian, she lived in almost constant stress. Running on her “treadmill of accomplishment” and desperately trying to live the Christian life by her own efforts left her feeling anxious, frustrated and exhausted. At the end of 2011 Sandra told God she just couldn’t live the Christian life any longer and admitted she needed serious help. God responded by giving her a deep revelation of His love for her. It’s been 6 years and Sandra’s life is totally transformed! One of her favorite ways to help others learn how to live the grace life is through her blog at SandraMccollom.com

Gwendolyn Myrie founder of Reigning through Righteousness Ministries, is a minister of the New Covenant of grace. Gwen’s passage out of law into grace came as a result of BURNOUT from filling her life with the work of the church. Done with her self-effort to be approved by God, she cried out to Jesus to reveal himself to her. Now with heart and eyes wide open, Gwen’s passion is to reveal Jesus and the true heart of the Father that will set His children free from performance-based religion into the glorious liberty of being sons and daughters of the Most High! Gwen ministers at women’s conferences, Bible studies, and prison ministry outreaches. She is a graduate of Victory Bible Institute and ORU Ministry Training & Development Program.

Shannan Orr prided herself on being a “good girl.” At age 14, she was drawn to Jesus having heard about the love of God, and then immediately set about trying to be good enough to deserve His love! She spent nearly 30 years volunteering at church in hopes of hearing “Well done, thy good and faithful servant.” Shannan felt born-again again after reading Connie Witter’s Bible study, “Because of Jesus” and realizing that her right standing with God was a gift of His love, not something to be earned. Shannan's books “Refocus” and “Yes I Am” preschool curriculum are part of the BOJM resources to help people of all ages understand the love of God and their identity in Christ. Her visual teaching style flows from her 30+ years of children’s ministry, making the good news of Jesus simple enough for even adults to understand.

Christy Rose is a professed recovering Pharisee! From a young child, she always behaved in ways that would bring her acceptance and approval. After graduating from Rhema Bible Training Center, Christy began living her dream of being a stay-at-home wife and mother and still had time to teach Sunday school and Bible study and be a youth and children's pastor with her husband Aaron. Christy became a woman of grace when God's unconditional love and grace brought her to the place of exchanging her self-righteousness for Jesus' righteousness! As a mother of six she has learned to depend on His love and grace and continues to share the true Good News in Sunday School classes, Bible Studies, and conferences. Her humor, life experiences, and love of God's Word uniquely equip her as a dynamic and anointed minister of the Gospel of Grace.
