#16 - Losing Charlie

from The Jacob's Ladder Podcast Hosted by Professor Carl Vanderpool and Jacob Stone

In this conversation, we reflect on what it means to lose Charlie Kirk. Because his life was committed to both faith and politics how should we handle the tension and blurred lines between both? Was Charlie a Christian martyr? What does revival look like in a moment like this? Why do some mourn, and others celebrate? What about loved ones in heaven—can the saints see us? Do they witness our remaining lives? If you're wrestling with this personally like so many of us, we pray that God comforts you.
