ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On Episode 6 of Keep Pointing Up, host Matt Corley sits down with Pastor Daniel “DK” Kelly for a powerful conversation about God, purpose, brotherhood, second chances, and what can happen when you allow Christ to completely change the direction of your life.
Pastor DK leads Harvest Community Church in Lafayette, a ministry focused on reaching people, building lives, serving the community, and helping others grow in Christ. His work extends far beyond the walls of the church through outreach programs that serve families, young people, and those who may otherwise feel forgotten.
His own story is a reminder that God can use every part of your past.
DK grew up around some of the toughest circumstances in Lafayette and found himself involved in street life at a young age. Golf unexpectedly became one of the things God used to begin changing the course of his life. What started with a second chance eventually became a passion for ministry, community outreach, and giving young people opportunities he never had himself.
Today, he even uses the game through DK Golf Academy to introduce kids in Lafayette’s inner city to golf while providing mentorship, encouragement, and a positive environment.
But this episode is about much more than golf.
Matt and Pastor DK talk about faith, finding your purpose, the importance of the men you surround yourself with, and why none of us were designed to walk through life alone.
Sometimes changing your future starts with changing your circle.
And sometimes God takes the very things you thought disqualified you and uses them to reach somebody else.
No matter your past, God isn’t finished with your story.
