Home of "The Quest to Become Recovered" Addiction Recovery Discipleship Curricullum
SAVED LIFE is a community of men and women who have overcome (or are overcoming) alcohol/drug addiction and other life-controlling/self-destructive behaviors. We have found a new power and a new freedom through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Driven by the Great Commandment (Matthew 22:36-40) to love our neighbors as ourselves and called by the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20) to make disciples of all nations, baptizing and teaching them...our mission at SAVED LIFE is to extend a hand of compassion and support to those battling sin, alcohol/drug addiction, life-controlling and/or self-destructive behaviors.
With unwavering love, acceptance, tolerance and guidance, we strive to empower one another to break free from the chains of addiction and life-controlling sin, fostering a safe community of healing, restoration, and renewed purpose in the light of Christ's love and forgiveness.
Saved Life is also a Christ-centered discipleship movement and growing network of small groups and house churches we call "Wells". Each Well is a local expression of the Body of Christ, meeting in homes, coffee shops, recovery houses, or wherever people gather to pursue Jesus together. We believe every believer is in recovery—being transformed daily by the power of the Holy Spirit. Through intentional relationships, Spirit-led worship, and biblically grounded teaching, we’re helping people become who God intended them to be and empowering them to do what He has called them to do. Together, we are rebuilding lives, restoring families, and raising up leaders—one Well at a time.
At Saved Life, we equip individuals, churches, and communities with the tools to help people on their journey to true freedom from sin, addiction and other life-controlling/self-destructive behaviors.
We are REAL PEOPLE with REAL PROBLEMS who have found REAL HOPE...we are SAVED LIFE.
“But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” — 2 Corinthians 3:18
At its core, "We are all in recovery" is not just a slogan—it’s a spiritual reality. It means that every single one of us is being healed, restored, and renewed by the grace of God. Whether we are recovering from addiction, pride, bitterness, abuse, religious legalism, trauma, sin, or simply the wounds of a fallen world, we are all on a journey back "to who God originally designed us to be and do what He called us to do."
Recovery is not just for the addict...
It’s for the sinner being sanctified by grace.
The Bible says, wherever two or three are gathered in His name,
Jesus is right there in the midst. (Matthew 18:20)
A Well can gather anywhere people are hungry for truth and thirsty for the Living Water of Jesus. Whether in a living room, a coffee shop, a recovery meeting, a jail cell, a treatment center, under a tent, in a field, or on a front porch — a Well can spring up anywhere. A Well isn’t just a meeting; it’s a movement. Each one is a place to recover from the past through Christ-centered healing, discover purpose through discipleship and the Word, be transformed by the power of the Holy Spirit, and train up leaders to multiply the mission.
We don’t build buildings — we dig Wells: places where the broken are restored, the weary are refreshed, and the called are commissioned. Wells meet weekly for worship and the Word, prayer and recovery discussion, testimony and training, fellowship and family. Then we gather monthly as a region and annually as a movement — just like the early church. The Well is not a place. It's a people. Wherever the thirsty gather, a Well can rise.
“But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” – Acts 1:8
Jesus gave His disciples a mission: to start where they were, then expand outward, carrying the Gospel to every corner of the earth. At Saved Life, we embrace this same calling—to bring the Living Water of Christ to those in need, beginning in our own community and extending beyond.
OUR JERUSALEM - This is our home base. The Well of Pensacola is a place of transformation, discipleship, and recovery, where individuals encounter Jesus, experience healing, and grow in faith. Through outreach, mentorship, and community impact, we are committed to building a foundation of faith right here in our city.
OUR JUDEA - As God moves in Pensacola, we extend our reach into neighboring cities and communities. Through partnerships, church planting, and regional discipleship initiatives, we seek to equip leaders and spread the message of recovery and redemption throughout our region.
OUR SAMARIA - Just as the early church crossed cultural and societal barriers, we are committed to reaching beyond our immediate context. Through digital outreach, worship services, recovery curricullum, future Well locations, and so much more...we will bring the hope of Christ to those who need it most.
Our ultimate vision is to see Saved Life impact lives worldwide. Through translated resources, online discipleship, and global partnerships, we believe the message of Jesus Christ can reach hearts far beyond our borders. Where the Spirit of the Lord is there is freedom.
From One Well to Many...
A well is a place of refreshment, renewal, and life. In biblical times, wells were central to communities—meeting places where people drew water to sustain themselves. At Saved Life, we believe every Saved Life "church" should be a spiritual well, offering hope and transformation.
Our mission is simple: Being all God intended us to be, Doing all He has called us to do. And as we remain faithful, we trust that what starts in Pensacola will flow outward—changing lives, one soul at a time.
In the earliest days of Christianity, before cathedrals, pulpits, and formal church buildings, believers gathered in homes. They met in small, intimate groups—sharing meals, studying Scripture, praying, and supporting one another in faith. These gatherings were the foundation of the Church, fueled by the Holy Spirit and committed to living out the Gospel in real, everyday ways.
At Saved Life, we embrace this same model, creating a network of believers who meet in homes, coffee shops, recovery spaces, and sometimes, formal church environments—just as the early disciples did. We believe discipleship is not just about attendance in a building but...transformation in a community. We call these communities, "wells"...because they are a source of Living Water.
The Book of Acts gives us a clear picture of the early church: “So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.” – Acts 2:46-47 (NKJV). This was the organic, Spirit-led movement that fueled the rapid spread of the Gospel. Saved Life Chapters follow this same principle, meeting in smaller, relational settings where transformation happens naturally.
Rather than emphasizing church membership or large gatherings, we focus on making disciples.
We embrace the call to discipleship with a simple but powerful mission: “Each one reach one, each one teach one.” Every believer is called to reach the lost, share the Gospel, and walk alongside others in their journey of faith and recovery. Through intentional mentorship, biblical teaching, and real-life transformation, we equip and empower disciples to make disciples—one life at a time.
The early church thrived on authentic community. They shared life together, bore one another’s burdens, and grew in faith side by side.
Our chapters create these same deep relationships—providing accountability, encouragement, and real brotherhood and sisterhood in Christ.
Like the early church, Saved Life "Wells" operate with flexibility. They don’t follow rigid programs but instead allow space for the Holy Spirit to lead.
Prayer, worship, studying Scripture, and open discussions shape each gathering, ensuring that the focus remains on Christ.
The First Century Church was not an institution; it was a movement.
Saved Life exists to spread the Gospel in everyday places, reaching people where they are—whether in recovery, the workplace, or their homes.
Each chapter is not just a meeting but a mission, actively engaging the lost and broken.
