To Save A Life is a powerful indie movie about the real-life challenges of teens and their choices. But it's more than just a movie—it's a feature-length film with follow-up opportunities like a youth group curriculum and a teen devotional centered around the biblical concept that we’re never more like Jesus than when we are reaching out to the hurting and lonely.
At some point, every teen has to decide: "What's my life going to be about?" To Save A Life dares to bring that question into their world, encouraging them to answer it with boldness, honesty and Christ-likeness—and to put love into action around them.
