Maurice F. Martin is a best-selling author, award-winning vocalist, and a life coach. Early in Maurice's life, he found his identity came from how many accolades he could collect, but when it all came crashing down, he sadly realized there wasn't much else keeping him going. After sinking to the lowest point in his life, Maurice turned to the real source of his identity, and the truth that he was "fearfully and wonderfully made" by God. Transformed by that truth, Maurice's goal became to help others overcome their self-limiting beliefs and find their worth in the light of God's love.

Quotes

"I was seeing myself have accomplishments and they sounded good on paper, but when I looked at myself in the mirror, I didn't like the person who was looking back at me when I laid my head down on my pillow at night." - Maurice F. Martin

"I heard the voice of God, that still small voice, speak to me. It really shifted the trajectory of my life and got me thinking more about not only how do I heal, but once I'm healed, how do I help other people—other people who look like me, sound like me, and feel like me?" - Maurice F. Martin

"I thought that the applause of the crowd, the awards, and the accomplishments would fill me up. What I found out is it didn't—it just exposed how deep and wide the valley inside of me was." - Maurice F. Martin

"If I would just open my eyes, if I would just open my ears, if I would just open my heart to the possibilities, then I'm able to step fully into the fullness of who I can be just today." - Maurice F. Martin

"It's [in] the 'what if' moments when you quiet yourself—when you go into prayer—that God will provide you the greatest comfort. Before your situation started, before your anxiety, He knew who you were. He ordained this journey just for you, and even when you get it wrong, there's God's grace." - Maurice F. Martin

"God is present, God is there for you, and God will never leave you or forsake you." - Maurice F. Martin
