CBSN
John Driskell Hopkins sings and plays guitar for the Zac Brown Band — enjoying center stage this summer while on tour with one of the top bands in country music.
But behind the scenes, Hopkins has been battling ALS. He started noticing difficulties playing music back in 2019 and was diagnosed last year, just before Christmas.
Hopkins recalled to CBS News the day he found out the news.

Robert Morris, founding pastor of Gateway Church, a megachurch in Southlake, Texas, has been indicted on five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, stemming from alleged incidents dating back to the 1980s, the Oklahoma attorney general's office announced Wednesday. We are aware of the actions being taken by the legal authorities in Oklahoma and are grateful for the work of the justice system in holding abusers accountable for their actions. We continue to pray for Cindy Clemishire and her family, for the members and staff of Gateway Church, and for all of those impacted by this terrible situation.
