This is the longest video I've made to date. I intend to answer the question of his martyrdom and along the way defend against the character assassination of this man so that the multi-ethnic church of Jesus does not miss out on being encouraged and built up by his contribution to the Great Comission. Use the time-stamps in this description to go right to the particular issue that concerns you the most about Charlie Kirk. Enjoy, be encouraged, be challanged, and be blessed in Christ!
