Charlie wanted to save young men just like the one who took his life.
‼️ Charlie Kirk’s memorial was reportedly viewed by a record breaking global audience of over 100 million livestream views across all platforms.‼️
The State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona was filled with 70,000 people; overflow venues reported tens of thousands more. Estimates of in-person attendance were between 100,000 to 200,000.
It was a powerful proclamation of the Gospel, reaching one of the largest audiences in recent history!
If you haven’t already, take the time to learn about Charlie Kirk and what he stood for. His courageous and relentless pursuit of truth and open dialogue is documented in thousands of hours of public debate and argument, which will easily discredit those quick to smear his legacy.
Supporters of Delaware Family Policy Council who were in attendance reported feeling “in awe” of watching God answer prayers for revival right before their eyes, calling it the most life changing event they had ever experienced. Keep watching for more about that!
Mikey McCoy, close friend and Chief of Staff to Charlie Kirk, described his friend as “someone who boldly engaged in cultural battles by reclaiming the name of Jesus and confronting offensive truths with unapologetic Christian conviction.” He said, “my friend was murdered for using his voice to engage in peaceful dialogue.”
The pinnacle moment of the memorial service were the words of Mrs. Erika Kirk who highlighted that Charlie’s greatest cause was to revive the American Family. She powerfully communicated Charlie’s vision for young men and women to experience the beautiful design for marriage and family that he and Erika shared.
Erika reminded everyone that Charlie wanted to save young men just like the one who took his life. Then in a remarkable display of God’s strength and love, through her tears, she said, “to that young man, I forgive you.”
Applause thundered throughout the stadium as people stood to their feet with tears streaming down the faces of thousands.
As Erika Kirk said in her speech, “In the days following his assassination, we didn’t see rioting or revolution – we saw revival.” Charlie’s public assassination that has exposed the worst of human depravity and evil in our country, has been met with prayer vigils, hope, and renewed commitment to seeking truth, and the life-changing power of faith in Jesus Christ.
If you haven’t watched the memorial service, please don’t miss it!
I pray that this memorial service will ignite the hearts of thousands of Delawareans to live like Charlie – to know Jesus and make Him known, and make heaven crowded.
