Meet Marcia Morgan

We caught up with the brilliant and insightful Marcia Morgan a few weeks ago and have shared our conversation below.

Marcia, so good to have you with us today. We’ve always been impressed with folks who have a very clear sense of purpose and so maybe we can jump right in and talk about how you found your purpose?

My purpose began the moment the Lord called me into full-time ministry.
It was the clearest I had ever heard Him speak to me, so direct, so undeniable… and so profound.
Because answering that call meant I had to walk away from a good-paying job. It meant surrendering what I thought was secure. But Matthew 6:33 became more than just a verse—it became my life’s compass:
“Seek ye first the kingdom of God…”

And with trembling faith, I said yes. I made the bold move.

At the time, I was studying at Jamaica Theological Seminary, pursuing a Bachelor’s in Theology with a minor in Guidance and Counseling. I knew I had a heart for people and a deep desire to help.
I was drawn to the idea of counseling, but when I realized the focus was on school guidance counseling, my heart sank a bit. I didn’t love teaching. Something didn’t sit right.
Still, I pressed on. I trusted that God would bring clarity.

Years passed. But that longing to help others never left me.
I began to notice something; I felt a deep joy every time I attended weddings. I would light up when I saw happy couples. There was something about marriage that stirred me.
Then one day, during a counseling session with a pastor, he looked at me and said,
“One of your passions is seeing marriages thrive.”
His words confirmed what my spirit had already been feeling. He encouraged me to consider marriage counseling. I left that meeting feeling seen… and hopeful.
But like many of us, I got distracted. I didn’t act on it. I shelved the dream.
Until one day… God brought a divine connection.

I met Donna Morris at a church I visited. As we spoke, she mentioned that she had completed a course in Marriage Mentoring and Relationship Coaching with The Institute of Marriage and Family Affairs (TIMFA) in the U.S.
Something ignited in me. I asked her for more information, and she kindly helped me get enrolled.

There was just one problem; I didn’t know where the money was going to come from. But deep in my spirit, I knew this was God’s leading. So, I made another bold leap of faith, trusting that the same God who called me would make provision.
And He did.

I became certified as a Marriage and Family Counselor through TIMFA.
During the course, we were taught various ways to position ourselves and reach those we’re called to serve. One of the strategies was social media. I was hesitant at first, but I decided to give TikTok a try.
It was there that the name Marriage Coach came to me. Later, I added Ministry, because I know without a doubt, this is God’s work.
This isn’t just a job or a title. This is my calling.
I didn’t always have a clear picture of what my purpose would look like. But through obedience, divine connections, and faith-filled steps, God led me here.

Today, I walk in purpose, helping married couples move from conflict to connection, preparing engaged couples to build lasting foundations, and equipping singles with clarity and confidence as they wait for love.

Marriage Coaching is not just what I do, it’s who I am.
And every time a home is healed, a couple reconnects, or a heart finds peace… I’m reminded:
This is why I said yes.

Thanks, so before we move on maybe you can share a bit more about yourself?

At the heart of what I do is a deep desire to see marriages thrive, not just survive. I am the founder of Marriage Coaching Ministry, a purpose-driven coaching business dedicated to empowering couples to experience deeper connection, understanding, and joy in their relationships.
Through personalized coaching sessions, I provide couples with practical tools, biblical principles, and thoughtful strategies to help them identify their unique relationship goals and move toward achieving them.
Whether a couple is preparing for marriage, navigating through a rough season, or simply seeking to strengthen their bond, my goal is to walk alongside them with grace, wisdom, and encouragement.
What makes this work so special is seeing transformation unfold before my eyes — witnessing a couple move from frustration to clarity, from distance to intimacy, from hopelessness to renewed love. Those are the moments that remind me why I do this. Every breakthrough is a victory, and every restored relationship is a testimony of hope.

This is not just a business, it’s a ministry of reconciliation and renewal. I believe marriage was designed by God, and when couples align with His purpose for their union, powerful things happen.
At Marriage Coaching Ministry, we don’t promise perfection, we walk with couples toward progress. It is my absolute joy and calling to see couples enjoy healthy, thriving marriages, rooted in mutual respect, faith, and love.
If you’re seeking growth in your relationship or want to explore what coaching could look like for you and your spouse, I’d love to connect. This journey is sacred — and you’re not alone.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

3.
My journey hasn’t been without struggles. There were moments I questioned my worth, wondered if I was truly making a difference, and felt the weight of pouring into others while silently asking God to pour back into me. But through those difficult seasons, God was shaping me, and three qualities have carried me through:

1. Empathy – I have always felt deeply. What I once saw as a weakness, I’ve learned is one of my greatest strengths. It allows me to serve couples with care, listen beyond words, and create a safe space for transformation.

2. Loyalty to My Calling – Even when things got hard and I wanted to quit, I stayed committed. This work is bigger than me , it’s about obedience to God and trusting that He’s using me for His glory.

3. Determination to Grow – I reached a point where I knew I needed help too. So I invested in coaching — a decision that changed everything. It gave me clarity, confidence, and reminded me that even the strong need support. It was an act of faith and stewardship.

My advice to others? Know your purpose. Stay rooted in it. Don’t be afraid to ask for help or invest in your growth. God honors every step of obedience, even the small, quiet ones. Keep pressing forward.

Who has been most helpful in helping you overcome challenges or build and develop the essential skills, qualities or knowledge you needed to be successful?

There have been a few key voices in my life that God used to help me rise above fear and self-doubt. My Pastor, Rev. Winston Smith, and my spiritual father, Dr. Carlton Dennis, consistently spoke to the calling on my life, even when I couldn’t fully see it myself.
But one of the most transformative shifts began when I started my coaching journey with Coach Donna Morris. She didn’t just walk me through business strategy; she coached me through a mindset shift. Under her guidance, I gained clarity around my niche, confidence in my voice, and a renewed vision for Marriage Coach Ministry. I started to believe I was capable, equipped, and worthy of doing what God called me to do.

Now, I feel more structured, focused, and intentional. I’ve begun creating flyers, posting consistently on social media, and embracing new levels of growth, including being booked for speaking engagements and Pre-marital sessions. Most importantly, I see myself differently, not through the lens of fear, but from a place of faith.
Choosing to invest in coaching was an act of obedience. It stretched me, challenged me, and helped me grow, not just as a Marriage Coach, but as a woman walking confidently in purpose. I’ve learned that clarity doesn’t happen by chance, but through intentional alignment with God’s plan and wise counsel.

Alongside it all, I am deeply grateful for the unwavering support of my husband, James Morgan. His encouragement, patience, and steady belief in me have meant everything. During moments of uncertainty, he has been my anchor, cheering me on, praying with me, and reminding me that I can and I don’t walk this journey alone.
