Episode Synopsis

Charlie Kirk’s assassination has shaken a family, a nation, and the world of higher education. In this special episode of the LifeWork Podcast, we reflect on the grief of his wife and children, the trauma witnessed by students on a university campus, and the questions this tragedy raises about justice, freedom, and the kind of people we are becoming. From a Christian perspective, we explore what it means to live faithfully in a broken world and to prepare leaders who will walk through doors of opportunity with conviction, even when hostility awaits. At Williams Baptist University, our mission remains clear: to cultivate Christ-centered leaders who will make a difference through their life work.
