Why Freedom

We all want to live free, but too often, fear, pain, and the weight of the past hold us back from the life God designed us to live.

Whether you’re just beginning your faith journey or you’ve been walking with Jesus for decades, Freedom will guide you step-by-step toward the healing, peace, and joy you were created for.

About the Authors

Matt and Sarah Keller are the Founding and Lead Pastors of Next Level Church in Fort Myers, Florida, and the founders of the Next Level Relational Network of Churches. As high school sweethearts, they first sensed God’s call to start a church in Fort Myers during a family trip in 1993. Nine years later, in January 2002, they moved from Indiana with their 17-month-old son, $9,200, and a vision called Next Level Church.

Next Level Church held its first service on May 12, 2002, at the Bell Tower Movie Theaters. In those early and often lonely days, God placed a deep burden on their hearts to support other pastors—eventually leading to the creation of the Next Level Relational Network. What began with an invitation to eight pastors has since grown to impact hundreds of pastors around the world.

Today, Next Level Church has grown from 35 people in a movie theater to multiple locations serving thousands across Southwest Florida. Matt and Sarah are passionate about the local church, freedom in Christ, and helping people experience God’s love. They are parents to Will and Drew, daughters-in-law Jess and Taylor, and proudly cherish their favorite role as “Poppi” and “Nonni.”

Freedom Stories

Stories of Transformation

“Before Freedom groups, my life felt dark. Even while serving on the worship team, I was struggling with addiction, past wounds, and the pain of a difficult breakup. During Freedom, God showed me He’s not just a feeling—He’s a Father who heals. He broke cycles of sin, replaced lies with truth, and freed me from a soul tie that was holding me back.

Now my life is completely different. I’m connected, leading in church, mentoring students, and walking in real confidence and freedom. God has truly transformed my life through Freedom.”

Group Participant

“I used to feel isolated and powerless, especially in motherhood. I believed the lie that I couldn’t live the life I wanted with children, but God showed me I’m actually living the best life with them.

Through Freedom, I faced my fears of not being a good enough mom and let go of bitterness and control. Forgiveness brought real healing, and now I see motherhood as a calling — a gift where I can fully be who God created me to be.”

Amy
Group Participant & Leader

“I carried deep guilt and shame from my divorce, and it shaped how I lived and parented. Freedom gave me a safe place to be honest, and I realized I wasn’t alone — and my past didn’t disqualify me.

Through Freedom, I let go of guilt and shame and began to truly feel worthy of God’s blessings. It’s changed how I follow Jesus and inspired me to step deeper into church life.”
