About Get Rooted

How We Got Started

God has been “downloading” acronyms to our Chief Visionary, Lou, for more than 10 years. He wrote them down to share with friends and family.

One day, someone suggested, “Why not put these on t-shirts?” Not long after, Get Rooted was born! And our product line has only expanded from there.

Each acronym and design serves as a powerful tool to spark meaningful conversations about faith, hope, and love.

Mission Statement

We link everyday words to Biblical truth to help you get rooted in a life of purpose. (Colossians 2:6-7)

Vision Statement

We envision a generation of believers who stand firm in God’s truth, not distracted by the empty promises of the world. Our goal is to keep hearts and minds rooted in Scripture and eyes fixed on Christ. Through our work, we help a global community run their race with purpose, fully alive in the abundant life God designed for them.
