At her husband’s memorial service, Mrs. Charlie Kirk did more than just honor her husband. She outlined great lessons of the Christian life which they had learned together and put into practice. Some quotes from her remarks:
Erika Kirk Understands Leadership
“To all the men watching around the world, accept Charlie's challenge and embrace true manhood. Be strong and courageous for your families. Love your wives and lead them. Love your children and protect them. Be the spiritual head of your home. But please be a leader worth following by your wife.”
Erika Kirk Understands Marriage
“Wives, be virtuous. Our strength is found in God's design for our role. We are the guardians. We are the encouragers. We are the preservers. Guard your heart. Everything you do flows from it. And if you're a mother, please recognize that is the single most important ministry you have. In our home, because Charlie traveled a lot, we tried to travel with him where we could. But I made sure that when Charlie returned from work, it was his sacred landing place away from the worries of the world. I didn't make him feel guilty for being away too long or too much. Or getting home too late. I always told him home is here for you and it'll be ready for you. And I made it into this place where he wanted to be as soon as possible when he was on the road.”
Erika Kirk Understands Discipleship
“All of you who are already believers: It is your job to shepherd these [new converts who are responding to the revival.] Do not take that lightly. Water the seed of their faith. Protect it and help it grow.”
Erika Kirk Understands Faith
“Charlie knew that faith was a habit. The more you live it, the more it grows. But know this too. The seed has only just been planted. The enemy will tempt you the most in a time like this one. God will always be there for you. But you must choose to mark your soul again and again in the direction of Christ. Pray again. Read the Bible again. Go to church next Sunday and the Sunday after that. And break free from the temptations and shackles of this world. Being a follower of Christ is not easy. It's not supposed to be.”
"It is better to face a gunman than to live your life afraid to speak the truth. It is better to be persecuted for your faith than to deny the kingship of Christ. It is better to die a young man in this world than to sell your soul for an easy life with no purpose, no risk, no love, and no truth."

Martyrdom accelerates what had already begun: the conservative reawakening, the rejection of globalist illusions, and the claim of America as the citadel of the West. The United States is no longer a parody of Rome but a new Imperium itself, its temples now churches, its armies both martial and spiritual. Kirk becomes a symbol of continuity, a reminder that history writes its chapters in sacrifice.
Across the ocean, Western Europe embraces its own theater. Rainbow banners and flags of foreign nations hang across state ministries. Brussels enforces ideological loyalty tests in the form of LGBTQ codes, transgender lessons, and immigration quotas. Berlin hosts parades where bureaucrats in suits bless drag queens as guardians of democracy. Paris chants hymns to diversity while dismantling its own historical self. The Faustian drive towards infinity there dissolves into a cult of sameness, a civilization devouring itself by proclaiming openness as its supreme faith. The continent of knights ...
Rational, highly concerned Americans are trying to understand and explain what's going on, and they are beginning to connect some dots from history and Scripture, like Dr. Naomi Wolf, who writes,
"I don’t even understand how this is possible: the same ugly, distorted expression of glee, the same hideous grin, is manifesting in a twenty-one-year old blonde girl in a Southern town who posts online celebrating Kirk’s death; a gay man walking his dog on the Upper West Side of Manhattan; a suburban middle-class woman with a bob haircut on a sidewalk in Seattle; a grey-templed college professor in Michigan; and so on, and so on; all celebrating, in exactly the same tone, the same words. How is that possible?
"I think of the passages in the Gospels of Mark 5, Luke 8:26-39 and Matthew 8:28-34, in which Jesus encounters a demon-haunted man “in the region of the Gerasenes”; Jesus asks the demon its name and the reply is “My name is Legion, for we are many.” “Legion” is the ...
