His death shook me more than any other. Which is strange because I didn't even follow his content. And now I've gone down a rabbit hole and seen the lies other people are saying about him. It's all very tragic.
Beautifully written. Thank you Zuby. I've heard a lot of people are getting back in Church due to the assassination and that is fantastic. We can all make a small change in our lives to honor Charlie Kirk to let his legacy live on....whether that's going to church, spending 5 more minutes to actively listen to someone in need, forgiving your spouse quicker and easier for minor transgressions, or hugging your son or daughter one more time. Make his death mean something in your life. He was God's talented instrument in life, let him live on in all of us even after life. He didn't die in vain.
Beautifully written! I followed Charlie Kirk & TPUSA, and Charlie was one of my heroes. I’m heartbroken about his assassination and for his wife, children and family. Strangely, I feel like I’ve lost a friend or family member, possibly because, though we never met, he was still a brother in Christ. And though Charlie isn’t here any longer, I don’t believe his voice will die, I feel like Erika will pick up the mic. TPUSA will go on!
Well written, Zuby! The effect of this evil assassination of Charlie Kirk reminds me of the first time I had ever seen a classroom teacher weep. We had just heard President Kennedy was assassinated. It felt like the whole world collapsed! Then when living in the UK when Princess Diana dies in a car accident in Paris, it was a nation and world mourning the loss of an iconic woman. Now Charlie Kirk’s assassination is far worse as we have seen more than we ever could have seen in the JFK and Princess Diana losses. I believe GOD is using Charlie’s death to awaken a generation to turn to GOD and pursue what is GOD’s purpose for HIS creation!
Beautifully written. Every time I think about the loss of Charlie, I am fighting back anger. I’m grateful for the impact he had on changing hearts and minds as well as bringing many to Christ.
Beautifully expressed Zuby. I cried off and on for days. I read a lovely thing somewhere that the reason why so many have felt the loss so keenly is that we are connected at a deep level by the Holy Spirit - who also grieves with us in our sorrow and has been sent as our comforter. Blessings on you, your family and your vital work. May we all be as courageous as Charlie. 🙏
Everyone in my accountability group was shell-shocked when this happened. And that we’re still here processing it is a testament to Charlie’s character. Working to live up to it.
For Christians, we got to witness in real time the same spirit that cried "Crucify Him!"
I don't want to make Charlie an idol, he pointed lives to Jesus and gave the glory to God for the man he was, but I believe many Christians were touched because they felt that his faith, conviction and courage in proclaiming the gospel were a big reason why he died.
We saw evil celebrating the death of someone who proclaimed the light of the world, Jesus.
And it's inspiring us to be more bold in our faith. What many intended for evil, God has turned into good.
And Charlie trusted his life, his salvation to Jesus. Treading carefully here, I suspect if he was to come back and share a message from the other side of eternity, it would be something like "Be EVEN Bolder! It is worth it!"
It's a shame you didn't get to meet him in person.
(Sometimes those of us with smaller platforms and reach assume it's relatively easier for those with reach and name recognition to more easily access others of elevated status.)
But in any case, we have many people to look forward to meeting and having fellowship with on the other side of the grave.
Thank you. I respect your opinion because you step back from all the noise and have a unique retrospect.
I am saddened by people who refuse to search for the truth regarding Charlie's stand on issues.
That refusal to acknowledge also extends to discussions here in the South about the acceptance of gays. A schism has broken here in some churches to acknowledge any tolerance. The Trans issue has clouded thinking and brought out the crazies IMO. Blessings to you. I appreciate your thoughtful discussion.

Well said, my friend. Charlie was one of the good guys.

Preach!
RIP Charlie Kirk 🫡🙏🏾 ...may his legacy help motivate the revival of Church attendance, we need it.

The world is left in a worse position without his voice. Rest in Peace, Charlie.
💜 love this
Amen, brother.

Yeah. It's a shame to see people nitpick (or outright slander and misrepresent) whilst missing the wider message, which was really positive.
I certainly feel more inspired to be bolder about my faith. And to become better versed in it.
