“You can either be humble or be humbled.” This was a lesson Pastor Garrett Kell had to learn early on in ministry.

In this video from TGC's Pastor to Pastor series, Kell reflects on his ministry experience, encouraging weary pastors to cling to God's word as a means to know Jesus more deeply. He also challenges pastors to view themselves as conduits, not cul-de-sacs, always remembering the purpose of ministry and the people they are called to serve.
