Charlie Kirk was assassinated today. Here’s a guy who, in the eyes of those who believe that the what and where of the education of a man is more important than his character, surely shouldn’t amount to much. He did. He co-founded Turning Point USA (a nonprofit that advocates for conservative politics on high school, college, and university campuses), traveled the world, met with world leaders and could debate anyone to his or her knees. His easygoing manner, encyclopedic knowledge, and persuasive reasoning was winning a generation to adherence of logical and moral thinking; or at least to consideration of it. We were initially told the shooter was detained, but, per the usual of late, now no one knows who it really was and he, she, or they are still walking the streets. It’s accurate in a way, isn’t it, to use that description (he, she, or they) because it is a description of the demonic world that prefers neither specific sex nor identity.

Those who prefer the shadows of power would love for Charlie’s family, friends, and followers to respond in kind. They would love a war. But those who share Charlie’s character hold a different view.

While our nation considers the good, the bad, and the ugly of what it’s become, let it also consider this: We are in a war. It is 5th generation warfare; that is to say a war of information. It’s time you stopped expecting the media to tell you what to think and to do a little investigating for yourself. It’s not always on the great or the important that the balance of the universe depends. In other words, stop waiting for someone else to do something, and do your part to right the balance, to enrich the beauty, and to clarify the narrative.

Talk with our Heavenly Father and His Son, Jesus. Listen to God, to Jesus, to the Holy Spirit. Stop ignoring the still, small voice or the dream that seemed unusual. Go to God with your questions. Read the Bible. Wait on the Lord. His timing is impeccable. Is it okay to defend ourselves? It is. Should we despise what God despises? We should. What else? Plenty. After all, the garden is our responsibility.

That’s about all I have to say on this sad day. I might be tired, but I’m not beaten. And neither are you. You want one more suggestion? Overcome evil with good. Good night.
