Let’s support Mickey Bell!!!
He only needs a few people, but check this out if you’re interested in contributing financially, being an Extra; or if you’re a Celebrate Recovery leader/member or actor who has a heart for making inspirational films.

CR DIRECTORS… THIS IS YOUR MOMENT.

For years, you’ve watched God change lives through Celebrate Recovery.

You’ve seen marriages restored, addicts set free, prodigals come home, and people who thought their story was over find hope again.

Now… we want YOUR story, YOUR ministry, and YOUR people represented in the movie “Second Chance.”

We are filming several powerful Celebrate Recovery scenes and we are specifically inviting REAL CR Directors from across the country to be a part of them. We don’t want actors pretending to understand recovery culture. We want the real heart of CR on that screen.

Come wearing your local CR shirt and represent your ministry in a film that could impact lives around the world.

You’ll get to be on set with the actors, eat meals with the cast and crew in catering, stay at the same hotel, and experience the behind-the-scenes journey of making a faith-based movie that points people toward hope and healing.

But hear me… SPACE IS LIMITED.

We only have so many spots available for these scenes, and once they are filled, they are filled.

If you’ve ever wanted your ministry to be part of something bigger… this is it.

❤️ Still LOVING and CHEERING for Jeff and Rachel’s Flipping Farms! Quite a creative dad and daughter team!

This episode is just a tiny example of Jeff’s sense of humor, ie chicken names and who knew he could sing?

Proud of our Emerald Coast Film Festival Award winners!!!

🤔 NOTE: Unless you already have a plan, you may consider spreading sand down on the floor of the bus to catch the p**p and p*e (so you can scoop it out like cat litter) or it’s going to get really stinky in there! Sand is a healthier / no-toxic option for chickens

🎬 Welcome aboard Filmmakers!

In a world that can sometimes feel heavy, there’s incredible power in stories that uplift, inspire, redeem, and remind us of what’s truly good—faith, family, love, kindness, and second chances. That’s exactly why I founded the Emerald Coast Film Festival: to create a welcoming home for family-friendly, faith-aligned films, music videos, documentaries, short films, feature films, movie posters, animations, trailers, and more. We celebrate content that engages, educates, informs, and displays positive messages or Christian moral values—clean, wholesome, and heartwarming.

Whether you’re an emerging creator pouring your soul into a short film that shares hope, a musician crafting an encouraging music video, a student teaming up on an animated piece, or an experienced filmmaker with a feature that touches lives—your story belongs here.
