This is me and my new found good friend, Dr. Paul Sorrentino. Talk about divine appointment! I met Paul at an open mic cafe down in Daytona Beach the week before I was supposed to leave staff training and head home. As I'm talking to him, it ends up he used to be a missionary to Trinidad for four years. I asked if I could share with him my ministry, he said yes and so we ended up hanging out at a karoke bar a few days later. He shared with me his life, his struggles, and we ended up praying for each other and encouraging one another as well.

Paul was excited to hear about my vision and calling with Keynote and decided to support me monthly! Furthermore, he tells me,

"You know, Chris, I've been praying for 3 or 4 months about someone to give to. God put a burden on my heart that I needed to give, but I said, 'who, Lord, who??' And now you come along and you're that guy that I've been praying for."

HALLELUJAH! PRAISE THE LORD! Can anyone say "Amen?!" The ridiculousness of God is unfathomable! Paul furthermore affirmed me that God has a special calling on my life, otherwise why was I sitting there with him, instead of 104 other staff? Not that I was any better than any of them, but God just intended for us to meet, not by human dealings, but by His divine hand. Who said God isn't a God of miracles anymore? Divine appointment I tell you...

Leaving that night, God affirmed in my heart that this was the direction He had set out for me in joining Keynote with Campus Crusade. Through the experience, God was saying to me,

"Chris, I'm going to put people into your path that you've had NO IDEA about. There will be people that you have no affiliation with and I'm just going to bring them into your life."

Praise Him. He's beyond our finite minds and small faith. Help us to believe, Lord.
