My sweet girl, 16 years old, asked me before our town's prayer vigil in Charlie's honor if she could say a few words on behalf of the high schoolers who would be in attendance. I was surprised (she's never shown any interest in public speaking before). But I was also touched. She loved Charlie's boldness and his sharp arguments. She, like so many young people, has been deeply effected by his death. And as I watched her, I was thankful again for the impact his ministry (yes ministry) has had on the next generation.
Thank you Charlie for all you did to model the life choices and values my husband and I have worked so hard to impart to our children. They are indeed your legacy.
