A good piece on the extraordinary speech from Charlie Kirk’s widow for those with ears to hear and eyes to see. This is how we witness to our faith in the midst of extraordinary grief, pain, and suffering. Her Lord Jesus is surely proud. Would that our President have used his opportunity to eulogize Mr Kirk likewise, but he just cannot seem to help himself, which is truly unfortunate.

Well done, good and faithful servant.

In her thirty-minute address, Erika Kirk spoke of Charlie Kirk’s Christianity, his passion for reviving the American family, and defended the Christian vision of marriage, urging young men and women to step up and embrace their roles as husbands and wives. Her eulogy, alternatively fierce and sorrowful, gave a glimpse of what a powerhouse she may prove to be at the helm of Turning Point USA, where she succeeds her husband as CEO. Millions of Americans believe Christian marriage to be oppressive, and Christianity to be hateful. 

But when an LGBT extremist murdered one of America’s most prominent public Christians, a man who has been smeared daily since his death by the international press as a vile bigot, the miserable murderer found himself not loathed by the widow of the man he killed—but forgiven. For just a moment, at least, Kirk’s enemies have been stunned into silence. He would have been so proud of her.
