Kel Mitchell, beloved star of the 90s Nickelodeon hit Kenan and Kel, recently shared a jaw-dropping exorcism experience on the popular podcast Club Shay Shay with Shannon Sharpe. This revelation unveils a spiritual battle of epic proportions.

A Fight Against Demonic Forces
Mitchell recounted how, during a film project, an evangelist prayed over him and his co-stars. He witnessed others undergoing dramatic exorcisms, complete with “spitting up.” The evangelist told him to forgive people by name, including his ex-wife, whom he had recently divorced due to infidelity.
In a shocking twist, the evangelist claimed Mitchell’s ex had put a “hex” on him. As the evangelist prayed, Mitchell described demons leaving his body, each one “speaking out their name.” This intense spiritual encounter, which lasted over an hour, reaffirmed his faith and marked a significant “rebirth.”
When you’re caught in a spiritual storm, hold onto this:
Ephesians 6:12: “For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.”
James 4:7: “Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.”
A Spiritual Rebirth
After this life-changing moment, Mitchell committed to a new path. He became celibate, stopped drinking and clubbing, and dedicated himself to God. He eventually started working at a church and became a youth pastor.
Mitchell’s transformation is a testament to the power of faith:
- 2 Corinthians 5:17: “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!”
- Romans 12:2: “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Faith Through Trials
Mitchell also reflected on how his Christian faith helped him navigate life’s challenges, including the death of a childhood friend, mental illness, and issues within the entertainment industry.
The episode featured a live performance by Gospel artist Tye Tribbett, which Sharpe said inspired him to “go back to church.”
Mitchell’s story is a powerful reminder of the spiritual warfare we face daily and the importance of standing firm in faith.
- 1 Peter 5:8: “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”
- Revelation 12:11: “They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.”
