The Asassination of Charlie Kirk and Where We Go From Here…

On today's episode Kaleb and I talk through how heavy everything feels right now—political division, violence, tragedy—and how the murder of Charlie Kirk especially is forcing us to work through where our hearts are and how we respond. We share how it’s affected us personally, what I’ve been wrestling with, and what I’m trying to live out: saying something when silence isn’t an option, holding onto scripture as truth, loving people even when we disagree, and praying that God would soften hearts (including mine). I also reflect on how even in deepest sorrow, God can bring good—people turning to Jesus because of what’s happened—and why that gives me hope.
