Kel previously described how he was faced with depression and suicidal thoughts, per Fox News.
He credited his devotion to God for giving him hope when he felt hopeless.
“I got into a lot of frustration and situations.
“And the thing about it is that a lot of depression comes from internalizing frustration, and you need to get it out.
“And you need to know that you’re loved by God and you were born for a purpose.
“When I figured that out, I wanted others to know that as well because He was always there for me in the ups and downs of my life.”
