The Real Problem Behind Charlie Kirk’s Martyrdom

Earlier today Charlie Kirk, the founder and CEO of Turning Point USA and host of The Charlie Kirk Show, was assassinated during a Q&A at a university in Utah. It’s tragic news—he was a young man who loved the Lord, was willing to boldly and kindly stand for what he believed in and challenge others with truth, and he was a husband and a father to two young children. How should Christians respond?

This afternoon, after I heard this news, I filmed a selfie video sharing my initial thoughts and applying God’s Word to this evil. You can watch and share that video below:

Yes, it really is a heart problem.

Please join me in praying for Charlie’s wife, Erika, his children, and his other family and friends. What a tragedy. May the Lord lead them through this valley of the shadow of death.

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for praying,
Ken
