Michelle Smith is an encourager to women who speaks and writes according to the Word of God.  She has served the local church for over 30 years where she uses the Word of God and her life experiences to pour into many.
 
The Lord has allowed her to encourage women through many vehicles.  She served as the Women’s Ministry coordinator for Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship (OCBF) in Dallas, Texas, Women’s Ministry leader for ONE Community Church in Prosper, Texas and currently serves on the Women's Leadership Team at OCBF.  She also was the Epitome magazine Women’s Ministry Columnist for years.  Michelle can always be found pouring into women where she models a Life on Life concept.  Her life goal is to live out her life verses:
 

Hebrews 13:5b-6 Amplified

"I will not in any way fail you nor give you up nor leave you without support.  I will not, I will not, I will not in any degree leave you helpless nor forsake nor let you down (relax My hold on you)!  Assuredly not!  So we take comfort and are encouraged and confidently and boldly say "The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm (I will not fear dread or be terrified).  What can man do to me?”
 

2 Cor 1:4 NASB

“who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in [a]any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.”

2 Cor 4:3 NASB

“And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled [a]to those who are perishing,”

​
​Michelle was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.  All of Michelle’s formal education was in Oklahoma.  She’s a Boomer Sooner from the University of Oklahoma. Michelle is married to her best friend, Frank, and together they have five children.  We can't fail to mention the newest member of Michelle's family, her first granddaughter, Alora Grace.  Alora in Hebrew means "God's light" and her little presence is like a huge ray of sunshine.
 
In her spare time, Michelle can be found relaxing near any body of water…pool, lake, or ocean with friends and family munching on Tex-Mex or good ol' soul food...preferably fried chicken, cabbage, and mashed potatoes!
