—Oswald Chambers
Every day we have opportunities—divine appointments—to introduce broken and lost people to Christ and plant seeds of faith. But many Christians remain unaware of these divine opportunities, or they stumble over their fear of rejection and feelings of inadequacy. The fact is, in order to participate in God’s redemptive plan for unsaved people, we must view faith-sharing opportunities as calling, rather than as mere coincidence.
From the very first page, Divine Appointments inspires and brings awareness of God’s desire that all believers share the good news with those who cross their paths. This book provides a step-by-step approach to help you make sharing Christ a way of life. Matthew Jacks writes, "If you have accepted Jesus Christ, you can trust that the Holy Spirit hovers in and around you at all times. And He’s got big plans for each day that go beyond earning a living, caring for your family, and enjoying leisure time. The Holy Spirit appoints each of us to God’s great welcoming committee. We all have a role in shaking hands with those for whom God is a stranger and sharing His love through word and deed."
As you read this book, ask God to increase your awareness of divine-appointment opportunities and stay constantly ready to bring Christ’s life-giving news to the people you encounter each day.

What did all these people from various walks of life have in common? They met Jesus through a divine encounter and were made whole. Today all Christians are called to be "Jesus with skin on." We have been called to help the unsaved recognize their need for the Savior. Jesus didn’t waste His time on "accidental" contacts—He was always available to show them His heart of compassion.
The authors write: "God won’t waste your time by giving you mistaken divine appointments. If you sense an opportunity to share, be bold enough to trust that it’s orchestrated by the Holy Spirit and that you can act on that prompting—regardless of the results." If you are willing, the Holy Spirit will fill your "calendar" with divine appointments that produce eternal results.
MATTHEW R. JACKS graduated from Philadelphia College of Art and majored in sculpture and painting. He now lives in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, and owns his own company, which specializes in the reproduction of early American painted furniture and Civil War era children's clothing. Matthew hopes the message of this book will encourage churches to focus on people right in their own community who don’t know Christ in a personal way.
