Charlie Kirk’s assassination is an awakening to the world. In this episode we honor his life and family, while confronting the rising tide of violence in our nation. Men must refuse to shrink back in fear and instead rise with courage, discipline, and faith. This is a call to boldness, truth, and dangerous manhood.
"If you believe in something, you must have the courage to fight for it." - Charlie Kirk
OPENING MONOLOGUE
A Godly and bold man has been struck down.
A husband ripped forever from his wife’s arms.
A father torn from the eyes of his children.
He will never have another moment with those who love him.
A truly incredible man silenced by the barrel of a coward’s gun.
Charlie Kirk’s life was stolen in an act of cold, calculated violence.
This is a demonic eruption of hatred from a culture drunk on rage, fueled by hate, and diseased with madness. Innocent blood has been shed…And now, his blood cries out from the ground on which it was spilt as a testimony against those who call evil good, and good evil.
We live in a nation where disagreement is no longer settled with debate or dialogue, but with death. Where anger metastasizes into assassination. Where one part of America has become so unhinged, so corrupted, so violently unstable, that speaking the truth itself is now a death sentence for those that dare to think and believe differently.
Men, hear me this is not the time to slink back. This is not the time to cower in silence. This is the time to rise up, to stand firm, to be bolder than lions. For if we remain quiet, we hand the microphone to evil. If we retreat, we give victory to the violent. If we compromise, we betray not only Kirk’s legacy but Christ Himself.
The question is not whether the world is violent. It is! The question is whether men and women will rise above it, whether we will answer violence not with cowardice, but with courage. Whether we will honor Charlie Kirk’s legacy, his wife, his children, not by bowing to fear, but by speaking truth louder than ever before!
