Listen "How Should Christians Respond to the Assassination of Charlie Kirk?"
Episode Synopsis
The assassination of Charlie Kirk has dominated the 24-hour news cycle, sparking shock, grief, and heated responses across the political spectrum. But how should Christians think biblically about such a moment?
In this episode of the Veritas Equipping Podcast, Jake is joined by pastors Michael Rhodes and Matt Hoffert for a thoughtful, pastoral conversation about faith, politics, grief, and the sovereignty of God. Together, they wrestle with questions like: What does it reveal about our culture when people either celebrate or capitalize on a man’s death? How should Christians respond—with anger, fear, or trust in God’s sovereignty? Is it possible to lament deeply without losing hope? Why is consistency in valuing human dignity so crucial? And how can believers resist the pull of political agendas while holding fast to the gospel?
This episode won’t give you sound bites or quick fixes, but it will ground you in biblical wisdom, invite you to examine your own heart, and equip you to respond with both truth and grace in a polarized world.
