Next to Erika, the best speech at the memorial was @DrLarryArnn’s. This quote won’t go viral but it was very profound:
“There’s a ladder that reaches up towards God. At the bottom of it are the ordinary good things that are around us everywhere. If we can call them by their names they have being. The beings of the good things are figments of God… A good thing is a thing that has being. An assassin is not a thing that has being. The assassin must give up his humanity to destroy something that has being. Charlie lives on. The assassin will die.”
If you watch one thing today, let it be this — the truly remarkable display of grace and compassion from Mrs. Erika Kirk as she forgives her husband's assassin because that's what Christ would do.
We love you, Erika.
