I watched it yesterday and by the end of President's Trump speech, he called Erika Kirk back to the stage and hugged her as a father who comforts his own daughter. That was a very touching moment! R.I.P. Charlie Kirk and God Bless America!

My sons were crying during Erika’s speech. They were so thankful she was able to speak to Charlie’s mission which focused on young men in Western civilization. God blessed Erika Kirk as she takes up the cross for Charlie. We are here to support her and Charlie’s mission.

I’m gonna tell you that I was a Democrat in Louisiana for the first 45 years of my life and I moved to a blue state 10 years ago and quickly learned I was too conservative and needed to be a republican. I started watching you, Ben and Charlie Kirk and Michael Knowles, and some of the other folks out there. The Christian conservative voices have been suppressed for so long. I did not even feel comfortable wearing my cross to work. But I left that job six months ago with no savings and no plan. I just couldn’t stand to go against my belief daily and I knew that there would be no success in it. It has not been easy since then, but I am encouraged daily to grow in my Faith. I have not gone one day without food without shelter without gas in my car and without joy in my heart. When I was working, I was constantly sick with migraines and I cried a lot and eventually I started to miss work, which was something that really hurt when I had been so proud of my good work ethic prior. I cannot honestly say that I would be as forgiving as Erica is here. But I can say that having her as an example helps me want to be that forgiving. I hope we can all come together. God bless you, Ben and God bless America.

And hundreds of thousands watched online. I watched from the UK. I got baptised the week Charlie passed away. I had my first mass on 9/11, as an x Muslim. B'H! Erica, her children, are in the prayers of people across the globe. Many many Christians wouldn't be able to say what Erica did. I've listened to her speak on her own channel. She is indeed a woman of deep faith and she took inspiration from the faithful women of the Bible. Look up her speaking about her faith. God bless you and keep you Erica Kirk.
