<strong>Author</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>Recording</strong> <strong>Artist</strong> <strong>Judy</strong> <strong>Jacobs</strong> Encourages<br />
Others to Follow Their Dreams at Any Age<br />
Don’t Miss Your Moment is a book about experiencing life’s best moments<br />
Chattanooga, TN – According to recording artist <strong>and</strong> mentoring advocate <strong>Judy</strong><br />
<strong>Jacobs</strong>, many people are unaware that there are still opportunities to grab on to life’s<br />
biggest moments <strong>and</strong> pursue their passion. In Don’t Miss Your Moment: It’s Never Too<br />
Late to Live Your Best (Strang Communications), <strong>Jacobs</strong> takes readers through the<br />
journey of discovering their calling, <strong>and</strong> includes practical wisdom for applying <strong>Jacobs</strong>’<br />
teachings.<br />
“A moment is when a divine spark catches in your life—it involves decisions that include<br />
your career, residence, relationships or your leisure activities,” <strong>Jacobs</strong> says. She stresses<br />
that it’s not a national spotlight or large audiences that define importance—everyone has<br />
a unique calling. “God calls people who are willing to push hard. He knows that if you can take it,<br />
you can make it.” <strong>Jacobs</strong> says. “Don’t settle for an existence instead of a life.”<br />
<strong>Jacobs</strong>, whose heritage is rooted in the Native American Indian Lumbee Tribe, a group that fought<br />
vigorously for its civil rights of equality <strong>and</strong> freedom, shares stories from her life. Once the shy,<br />
daughter of a sharecropper with 11 siblings who grew up in the church, <strong>Jacobs</strong> has become an<br />
accomplished singer <strong>and</strong> a speaker to thous<strong>and</strong>s of people around the world.<br />
From the day of Pentecost, to the Valley of Dry Bones in Ezekiel, Don’t Miss Your Moment draws<br />
out scriptural teachings <strong>and</strong> insight into relevant topics, including:<br />
• Identifying a “moment” <strong>and</strong> experiencing God’s calling<br />
• Recapturing lost moments, waiting on <strong>and</strong> pursuing your moment<br />
• Biblical examples of people who captured or missed their moments<br />
• Underst<strong>and</strong>ing the importance of mentoring in your purpose<br />
According to <strong>Jacobs</strong>, Christians should be expecting the unexpected. “Your whole life is going to be<br />
a series of God moments that build on each other. You belong to God, so expect it,” <strong>Jacobs</strong> says.<br />
“It’s deadly serious business to make the wrong choice <strong>and</strong> miss your moment. It can be costly.”<br />
<strong>Jacobs</strong>’ personal passion is found in her International Institute of Mentoring, where she trains<br />
church ministry leaders <strong>and</strong> those starting schools, churches <strong>and</strong> orphanages. In 2008, <strong>Jacobs</strong><br />
exp<strong>and</strong>ed her philanthropic calling when she became part of a humanitarian effort to provide<br />
clothing to orphanages around the world <strong>and</strong> Native American children within the United States.<br />
<strong>Judy</strong> <strong>Jacobs</strong> is a recording artist, ordained minister, teacher <strong>and</strong> sought-after conference<br />
speaker. She is the host of the television program <strong>Judy</strong> <strong>Jacobs</strong> Now!, which airs on major Christian<br />
networks, as well as the yearly “Press, Push, <strong>and</strong> Pursue” conferences at various locations<br />
worldwide. She is also the author of Take It by Force! <strong>and</strong> St<strong>and</strong> Strong. For more information,<br />
