HOLY REVOLUTION: The Charlie Kirk Effect (Ep. 481)
This week we take you to one of the most consequential moments in modern American history — the Charlie Kirk memorial, a moment that felt like a modern-day “shot heard round the world.” I (Greg Schlueter) was there in Phoenix with 200,000, joined by more than 100 million streaming globally. Together, with John Sherman who was with me, we recount how epic this moment was: a spark, a flame, igniting revolution.
From the stage came some of the most powerful leaders in the world, united in acknowledging the foundational necessity of faith in Jesus Christ — not as ornament, but as the center. The crescendo of it all: Erika Kirk’s extraordinary witness, forgiving the man who killed her husband, and calling us to arms of love that alone can transform the world.
John and I share our stories and experiences, and after John departed for another interview, Stephanie and I unpacked seven strong takeaways from the memorial — seven turning points to ensure this is not another fleeting moment, but the awakening of a people to the power of the Holy Spirit poured out, and the call to truly live it.
