Our Faith-Based Rehab Programs That Treat the Body, Mind, and Spirit

Traditional 12-step programs like AA and NA reference a generic “higher power" and often label participants as “addicts” for life. A Christ-centered, faith-based recovery program like S2L takes a different approach. We teach that your identity is found in Christ as a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17), not in your past. Our curriculum, daily worship, and full-time pastoral staff provide genuine spiritual discipleship rather than generalized spirituality.

A strong faith-based residential recovery program combines clinical excellence with genuine spiritual care. At S2L Recovery, that means on-site medical detox supervised by licensed physicians, dual diagnosis treatment for co-occurring mental health conditions, evidence-based therapies like CBT and DBT, and daily biblical teaching led by ordained pastors. This combination addresses the physical, emotional, and spiritual dimensions of addiction, which is why our alumni show a 60% success rate compared to the industry average of 3–12%.

No. S2L Recovery welcomes men and women of all faith backgrounds. While Christ is central to our drug rehab program, you do not need to identify as a Christian before admission. Many of our graduates came to faith during treatment. Our team will never judge the circumstances that led you to us (John 8:5–7).

S2L Recovery treats alcohol addiction, opioid addiction (heroin, fentanyl, prescription painkillers), methamphetamine, cocaine, benzodiazepines, and other substance use disorders. We also treat dual diagnosis cases where mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, PTSD, or OCD co-occur with substance abuse. Each client receives an individualized treatment plan tailored to their specific needs.

Yes. S2L Recovery is Joint Commission accredited, which is the gold standard in healthcare quality and safety. We are also Tennessee State Licensed, SAMHSA listed, and an AACC Christian Care Connect provider. Our faith-based residential recovery program meets the same rigorous clinical standards as the largest secular treatment centers, while keeping Christ at the center of care.

S2L Recovery operates two campuses in middle Tennessee: our men’s facility at 290 Mullican Rd in McMinnville, TN (a brand-new 36-bed facility on 10 acres) and our women’s facility at 3180 Hill Creek Rd in Woodbury, TN (a newly renovated 22-bed facility on 6 acres). About 70% of our clients come from out of state. We offer airport pickup from Nashville BNA and can typically arrange admission within 24–48 hours of your first call.

Our residential program goes well beyond the typical 28-day rehab model, with treatment lasting up to three months. This extended duration aligns with recommendations from the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), which emphasizes that longer treatment produces better long-term outcomes. Each client receives a personalized treatment plan that addresses addiction alongside spiritual and emotional well-being, helping them rebuild their relationship with God and develop coping strategies rooted in faith.

We are also a TRICARE East in-network provider and participate in the VA Community Care Network. Our team will verify your benefits and walk you through your coverage options at no cost. Private pay options are also available.
