Charlie Kirk | Praying for enemies | And the crazy thing that happened when we did

Charlie Kirk | Praying for enemies | And the crazy thing that happened when we did

Author: Bob Lotich, Linda Lotich October 11, 2025 Duration: 26:06

Over the last few weeks, there's been so much talk about the Charlie Kirk tragedy.

But as I've listened to all the commentary, I realized—no one's talking about this.

We didn't want to make another video about what happened.

We wanted to talk about what Jesus actually modeled when something unthinkable happens… and how that applies to us right now.

This episode honestly challenged both of us deeply. It's one of those conversations where you feel the tension between what feels fair… and what faith actually calls us to do.

We're not trying to debate headlines. We're just asking—what does it look like to follow Jesus when it really costs something?

Episode Takeaway:

It's easy to pray for victims.
It's supernatural to pray for the ones who caused the pain.
But that's exactly what Jesus modeled—and when we do, we invite heaven into places the world wants to keep dark.
