Will there be different degrees of rewards in heaven?

From The Gospel Coalition Blog:

We’re continuing our new feature, “You Asked,” where readers send us theological, biblical, and practical ministry questions that we pass along to The Gospel Coalition’s Council members and other friends for an answer we can share in this space. If you’d like to ask a question, send it to ask@thegospelcoalition.org along with your full name, city, and state.
