Background Check Podcast
After five DWI’s landed me prison, something had to change. One day I got into a fight and I spent eight days in solitaire confinement thinking about my life and the decisions I had made that led me to that dark place, literally. I came out of the hole a different man with a different heart, mind, soul, direction, and outlook on life. I got mentored by a couple of inmates who eventually made parole but within a year they were both back in. This confused me and ticked me off. I wondered how I was going to make it out there. Since my release in 2006 we’ve opened up a transitional house for men, with another ”ranch” coming, launched a documentary, been on the Mike Huckabee Show, launched this podcast, and it goes into prisons all over the nation.

April 9, 2003 was my last drink. April 10, 2003 was my first day of my 20 years of sobriety. Lots of people to thank, but first and foremost, God, for His saving grace, wonderful mercy, and unconditional love that lead to numerous second chances. Here's to the next 20 years.

Show Summary Ex-Con, Pastor, Entrpreneur, Life Changer. Part 2 Kelby McNab is a pastor, business owner, high school dropout and ex-convict who is making Jesus and self-development go viral. He and his wife Adrian currently reside in Clemson, South Carolina where they spend the majority of their time operating their agency, Upstate Digital Marketing. A modern-day digital advertising company that serves over 50 non-profits and organizations across the United States. In 2019, Kelby shared a post online about his life-changing encounter with Jesus & accountability that went viral and by the next week had reached over 14,000,000 people across the nation. Today Kelby's online presence continues to reach over 25,000 people weekly. At the age of 17, he was convicted of 4 felony charges and spent his 18th birthday in Pickens County Jail before being sent to prison. After serving his sentence in Columbia South Carolina he returned home with 5 years of parole. On his last year of parole, Kelby lost 2 of his brothers (ages 16 and 24) to drugs, alcohol and gang violence. A few months later Kelby was using Xanax, marijuana and alcohol to cope with the frustration and pain, sending him on a downward spiral of trouble. He was arrested 3 times for DUI, wrecked his jeep into someone's home and totaled over 3 of his vehicles during this season. He spent countless nights waking up in a jail cell hungover not knowing what was going on because he couldn't remember anything from the night before. On his last limb, Kelby talked with his mother and decided it was time to check into rehab and change his life. That following year Kelby graduated from the Home-with-a-Heart a rehabilitation center located in Liberty South Carolina and has never been the same since. He is going on his 3rd year of marriage with his beautiful wife, whom he met in church in 2017. Has spoken to 100's of troubled teens and youth giving them real-life advice to help them change their life for the better. He has also been invited to be the keynote speaker for events all over the nation and currently serves at his church as one of the Pastors and Media Director in Anderson, SC. Kelby continues to spread the message of Jesus and share his advice and stories online for people to learn from and use to improve their lives. His message is simple, “if you want things to change, you've got to change.” RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THE SHOW SPONSOR Clarity Roofing and Solar: https://www.clarityroofingandsolar.com/ or Call Joe Today 469-386-9116 Kelby’s Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=kelby%20mcnab Kelby’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kelby-mcnab/ Rejuvenate Church: https://rejuvenatechurch.com/ Write Background Check Podcast and Forgiven Felons: PO Box 4283 Cedar Hill, TX 75106 Forgiven Felons website: https://www.forgivenfelons.org/ Watch the Forgiven Felons Documentary: https://therokuchannel.roku.com/details/7abf5e84134e54a394b5b42544c08caa/forgiven-felons/season-1 How to get more involved with Forgiven Felons: Leave a review and subscribe on iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/background-check-podcast/id1515831127 BUY MERCHANDISE FOR A CAUSE: https://www.forgivenfelons.org/shop Learn about our Future Plans or to DONATE A BUILDING: https://www.forgivenfelons.org/future-plans Give to our organization: https://www.forgivenfelons.org/support Follow Forgiven Felons on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
