What Does Charlie Kirk's Murder Reveal About Extremism and Division?   Host Curtis Chang sits down with Good Faith "founding friend" and New York Times writer David French to reflect on the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk and what it reveals about the rise of political violence in America. Together, they explore how formative experiences have shaped Baby Boomers and Gen Z differently, the role of influencers versus institutions, and the dangers of extremism across the political spectrum. With compassion for the personal tragedy at the center of this event, they also highlight the church's role on the path toward healing and rebuilding trust in a deeply divided nation.   Register for the Good Faith live prayer event HERE   Join The After Party   Send Campfire Stories to: [email protected]   Donate to Redeeming Babel   Mentioned in this episode: Poll Results: Is Political Violence Ever Justified?
