    One Week Later: Thoughtful Christian Responses To Charlie Kirk’s Death

    I did not know Charlie Kirk, and, in fact, barely knew of him until his death. Like so many others, I was horrified by his murder and have been attempting to understand its significance. As a committed curator of distinctly Christian content, I have had many articles come through my app, and each of them…
