This is The Confederation Report, a weekly analysis of Canadian news and culture from a Biblical worldview.Excerpt: On the morning of September 10, 2025, a thirty-one-year-old American conservative Christian arrived at the University of Utah to take part in a public debate. He was a husband and father of two young children, known for living unashamed of the Gospel and letting the truth of Christ shape both his public witness and his private life. During the debate, he was assassinated.Opening Words (00:00-00:35)Part I: In Memoriam – Charlie Kirk (00:35–10:38)Kirk’s death was not merely a political assassination; it was an attack on a worldview, on a witness, on a way of life grounded in Scripture and lived out with courage. It was meant as a warning, a silencing, a public spectacle to intimidate others who dare to speak.Part II: Charlie Kirk's Memorial (10:38–14:53)On September 21, 2025, nearly 70,000 people gathered at State Farm Stadium in Arizona to honour Charlie Kirk. Many observers noted that the memorial blended patriotic fervor, evangelical language, and deep political passion. Yet at its core—and throughout the event—Christ and His gospel were proclaimed, just as Kirk would have desired.Did You Know?
