"Finished" is more than a final word—it is the turning point of eternity. From the titles of stories that mark both beginnings and endings to the cross that appears in countless ways throughout our lives, we see that what seems like the end is often just the beginning. When Jesus declared, “It is finished,” he wasn’t speaking of defeat but of fulfillment—of a love that transcends time, a victory that reshapes history, and a grace that continues to unfold. The graphics, set design, and social campaigns of this Easter transport the viewer into a timeless narrative that sparks curiosity and intrigue.

Wellspring. Fountain. Source. A picture of movement and flow. An endless supply of sustenance and refreshment. A spring that never runs dry, endlessly alive, bubbling over, clear and pure. Our Fount is Christ. In him are living waters for our parched souls. From barren places springs new life, growth, strength and beauty.
