Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Marchelle Lee. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Marchelle, we’re thrilled to have you sharing your thoughts and lessons with our community. So, for folks who are at a stage in their life or career where they are trying to be more resilient, can you share where you get your resilience from?
When I was younger, I suffered a lot of abuse. I had very low self-esteem and low self-confidence. I had been told all my young life that I couldn’t do, or anything I did accomplish was never applauded by the person I wanted the most. Welfare and food stamps as a young adult was a way of life for approximately ten years. One day I decided to return to school to become a registered nurse. I did just that, and this, of course, helped with the concept of my self-worth. A few years later, I became an active Christian. My new devotional, 31-Day with The Word that Works and Jesus, clearly defines some of my most intense life battles and how my faith in the Lord helped me become resilient in every complex area of life I have experienced.
Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?
I am a preacher, teacher, motivator, coach, author, podcast host, and Registered Nurse. I am in the process of opening a church. I am the founder and CEO of MDL Ministries ( more information at www.mdlministries.org 501 (c) (3)). I will soon be the Pastor of a DBA under MDL Ministries called Life Transformational Ministries at 18018 Overlook Loop, Ste. 105, PMB 125, San Antonio, TX 78259. We are seeking office furnishings and 50 church chairs, and a podium. This new ministry will begin with a focus on winning and disciplining people to Jesus Christ through worship services and Biblical teaching. This ministry will also engage in helping human trafficking individuals find safe places and homes to be restored to a more stable life. Additionally, we will provide ministry to those who need to establish financial stability, seniors, mental health needs, and general health needs. Our mission: is to provide an environment and community for individuals to come into an identity and relationship with Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.
There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
1. I am a good listener and have the skill to hear the unspoken. 2. I have a great deal of experience in various areas that have resulted in knowledge and wisdom. I am often able to see the whole picture.
3. I am an excellent motivator and a great coach.
Advice: Pace yourself and be patient with the process. We all need good coaches and mentors. Don’t try to go it alone. Always be teachable.
As we end our chat, is there a book you can leave people with that’s been meaningful to you and your development?
The Bible, first, has so many scenarios of characters who had multiple struggles in life; however, through their faith believed in God for victory. God, our Creator, is responsible for much of my outcome when I submit to Him and prepare myself for each new level. Worry cancels productivity, and there is no deliverance without my participation.
