Charlie Kirk paid the ultimate price for standing up to the cultural rot on college campuses — he was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University on September 10, and Pastor Lucas Miles says Kirk knew the danger yet refused to back down in his mission to reach young people. Kirk’s willingness to risk personal safety to preach conservative principles and the Gospel has been a sobering wake-up call for patriots who still believe free speech and faith are worth defending.
On Newsmax, Miles recalled that Kirk eagerly wrote the foreword to his new book Pagan Threat because he understood the ideological war being waged against America better than most, and he did it knowing the risks. Miles described Kirk as a “fearless warrior for Christ” who mixed political strategy with evangelism, aiming to win hearts on campuses where the left’s indoctrination runs deep. This isn’t media hyperbole — it’s testimony from someone who worked alongside him.
Make no mistake: the left’s militant woke ideology is not merely a disagreement over policy, it’s an organized campaign to supplant Christian values and silence dissent, and Charlie confronted that head-on. Miles accurately warns that wokeism has evolved into a religion of its own, and conservatives who keep their mouths shut or retreat from campus engagement are letting our future slip away. If patriots want change, we must be bolder — more speakers, more campus presence, and zero tolerance for intimidation.
The outpouring of support at Kirk’s memorial — and Turning Point USA’s swift move to appoint his wife Erika as CEO — shows the conservative movement refusing to cower in the face of violence. President Trump and other leaders rightly framed Kirk’s death as an assault on American values and rallied tens of thousands to honor his legacy; this movement will not be extinguished by cowardly attacks. We owe it to Charlie to carry forward his work with renewed vigor and disciplined organization.
Authorities have already begun arresting individuals who made violent threats or attempted retaliatory attacks after Kirk’s murder, which underlines the volatile environment we face and the need for tough law enforcement against politically motivated violence. Patriots can demand both accountability for violent actors and a legal system that protects peaceful conservative activism, rather than giving platforms to those who incite or excuse violence. The safety of our speakers and students must be a top priority.
Charlie Kirk showed what it means to be brave and selfless in the fight for the next generation, and Lucas Miles’ plea is simple: don’t stop. Churches, parents, and young conservatives must double down on outreach, defense of faith, and unapologetic truth-telling in schools and online, because surrendering ground to the left is not an option for free people. We grieve, we remember, and then we march on — louder, prouder, and more determined than ever to save our country.
