A divine appointment is the Spirit-guided intersection of people's lives for God's purposes. This book/journal is intended to be used for thirty consecutive days. Each day there is a devotional, a coaching question, a real life divine appointment story and space to journal any divine appointments that took place that day. At the start of each day, after you have read the material, pray that God will give you a divine appointment. Go throughout your day with anticipation, looking for God's opening providences.
A man on the verge of suicide gives his life to Christ because someone spoke to him just in time...a man helps a woman whose car is broken down and finds himself witnessing to a rock star... These are just a few of the "divine appointments" that can happen in your life if you are willing to trust God and surrender fully to Him! Larry Tomczak, a popular author, speaker, and renewal leader, tells how every Christian can be used by God every day to spread the good news, heal the sick, and help others grow in Jesus!
"Josie Brooks, at the age forty-seven, thought she was leading an enviable single life. A successful consultant, she calls her own shots, goes where the money is, and never needs to compromise. But her precisely managed world begins to falter during a Chicago contract when an economic downturn, a bleeding-heart boss, and the loyalty and kindness between endangered employees ding her coat of armor. Throw in hot flashes, a dose of loneliness, a peculiar longing for intimacy, and unquenchable thirst--not to mention a mysterious snowglobe with a serene landscape, complete with a flowing river and lush greenery that seems to beckon her in--and Josie's buttoned-up life is on the verge of coming completely undone. Maybe her solitary existence isn't as fulfilling as she has convinced herself to believe. It will take a few new friends, a mystical encounter, and an unexpected journey to set Josie on her own path to 'right-sizing' and making the life changes that really matter. Filled with laugh-out-loud moments and a gentle dash of inspiration, Divine Appointments is another heartwarming charmer from a master storyteller"--Page 4 of cover.

This story chronicles the humble beginnings of two people who met and submitted to God's direction for their lives. Their choices and decisions took them farther along the path God designed. Dick (through journal entries and other writings) and Anita write to convey God's movement in their lives through this chronology, Divine Appointment. Their biographical account traces life experiences that brought them to the Trinity River Bridge one cold Wednesday morning, 1989. On that bridge their lives intersected with a dead, mangled man. There, God prompted Dick to pray a miraculous, life-saving prayer for Don Piper. His book, 90 Minutes in Heaven, is the story of Don's miraculous return to life after the fatal accident. Coincidence did not intersect three lives that day, God did. When Dick and Anita happened upon the horrific accident scene, it was God's Divine Appointment, orchestrated by His hand.
