Because everything begins at the Root

Anxiety has a way of lying to us. It whispers, “You’re stuck. You’ll never be yourself again. You’ll always feel this way.” But the Word of God speaks a greater truth: “Fear not, for I am with you.” (Isaiah 41:10)

I watched Pope Leo speak today in front of an auditorium filled with 16,000 young people right here in America. Sixteen thousand. Just imagine that many hearts gathered together—not for a concert, not for a celebrity meet-and-greet—but to praise God, ask real questions, and grow in faith. It moved me more deeply than I expected. When the students began asking questions, one that stood out was about AI, because honestly… how could it not?

It is with a heavy heart that we mark the passing of the incredible artist Drew Struzan—an illustrator whose work shaped not only Hollywood advertising but also the way many of us remember our childhood, our cinema-memories, and the magic of film. He died on October 13, 2025, at the age of 78.
