Though Charlie Kirk couldn’t join us at the Cleveland Celebration Gala last month, his mission—and the passion behind it—was at the center of our conversation. Charlie’s Phoenix pastor, Luke Barnett, and Allie Beth Stuckey joined CCV President Aaron Baer to reflect on advancing truth, protecting life, and strengthening families in a culture increasingly at odds with God’s design.

On this special episode of The Narrative, they discuss how politics can be a way of loving our neighbors without being the only way, the shifting role of marriage in society, and the vital need for discipleship. They also explore Charlie’s real legacy and the reality behind the effort it's taking to carry it forward.

Listen in for a candid, faith-filled discussion on what it truly takes to stand for truth in a world that often seeks to silence it.
