Charlie Kirk’s murder cut deep, and the weight of it is twofold.
First, Charlie was more than a man with a platform. He was a voice for convictions many of us share but too often keep silent. He spoke with courage where others wavered - unafraid to defend truth, faith, and the values that hold a nation together. His words gave strength to those who felt unheard. And now, his voice has been silenced. Yet even in this grief, our resolve must remain: we will not be silent. Jesus Christ is still Lord. The Bible is still the standard. And truth, though attacked, cannot be buried.
But let this be said plainly: nobody in America - on either side of the political spectrum - should ever be killed for being outspoken about deeply held convictions. Debate is essential. Disagreement is natural. Discomfort is necessary for growth. But violence has no place in a free society.
Second, I grieve as an agent on a protective detail. My life’s calling is the defense and preservation of life. I know what it means to step into danger, not knowing if I’ll see my family again. I know the weight of standing between threat and the one you’re charged to protect. Charlie’s team reacted with honor, speed, and courage - fighting for every breath. Yet sometimes, even when everything is given, it is not enough. That is the thin, sacred line we walk in this profession - the razor’s edge between life and death. It is a calling that is noble, but never safe.
This tragedy drives me to prayer. May the Lord expose every hidden hand of evil and bring it into the light. May every dark power lose its grip. May we not only cry out in times of loss, but remain steadfast in prayer during times of peace - asking His protection over our families, our leaders, and those who stand daily in harm’s way.
But more than anything - may this loss awaken courage in us. Courage to speak truth with boldness. Courage to resist evil without compromise. Courage to serve with honor, even when the cost is high. If we are to endure as a nation, it must be as a people of sacrifice, conviction, and faith.
Charlie’s death is a wound, but it can also be a spark. May it ignite in us a stronger resolve - to stand taller, live bolder, and give ourselves wholly to the defense of truth, peace, and freedom.

Sometimes, the hardest thing to do is let go, but trust that God has a greater plan ahead. Letting go isn’t giving up; it’s making space to grasp onto the blessings He has prepared for you.
When we muster the strength to confront our circumstances and embrace the uncertainty of change, we open the door to new possibilities. Each decisive step we take not only shapes our immediate reality but also paves the way for a more fulfilling and purposeful existence.
In life we often encounter moments & seasons characterized by stagnation or discomfort. These periods may appear unchangeable, yet, in truth, they serve as unique invitations for growth. It is through our courage to make bold & brave choices that transformation becomes possible.
yes I'm a Christian. yes I make mistakes. yes I make hypocritical decisions. yes I stumble and fall. yes I'm a mess. but I'm God's mess, and He can turn any mess into a masterpiece.
Society is raging war on masculinity.
Masculinity is not toxic - the absence of masculinity is toxic.
Weak men are self-righteous, abusive and spiteful.
Strong men are god-fearing, protective and caring.
Stop ignoring your gut, often times it's God nudging you, warning you, that something is not right. When you feel something is off, it usually is! Learn to listen. Step back. PRAY!

@cwtremo “Am I saying this now to win the approval of people or God? Am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be Christ’s servant.”

We should build relationship as if it was a home. Lay down a strong foundation, repair the cracks, make it a safe space, & violently fight to protect it.
If someone doesn’t care equally about this home, they shouldn’t get a key.
