Charlie Kirk’s death has gripped the nation, much like the tragic day of 9-11. For a few, the response has been evil joy, relishing over his demise. For others, it has stirred their faith. Charlie was more than a political figure, he was a bold Christian. So, believers have been emboldened to share the faith, and nonbelievers are asking questions, attending church, and praying. His death made me think of Stephen, from the book of Acts. I am not saying Charlie is the equivalent to Stephen, but they were both bold in the faith and violently murdered. Think of the impact Stephen’s death had at the time. Sure, some were cheering it on. But for others, they saw a young man bold in the faith, willing to die for Jesus. We must all be this way, boldly sharing the faith, willing to die for Jesus. There is nothing more important. As we grieve the death of Charlie, and remember his family, let us not forget the ultimate solution is Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
