In 1999 she founded Hill Country Ministries, a non-profit ministry, dedicated to spreading Gods Word and love through her speaking ministry, books, DVDs, and CDs. Her weekly Bible study is aired on local television. In recognition of her spiritual impact on the community, Debbie was recognized as Kerrville’s 2000 Woman of the Year.
