Secretary of War Pete Hegseth just gave a very powerful speech at Charlie Kirk’s memorial service.
He reflected on the impact that Charlie made in both life and death — not just in politics, but on the spiritual battlefield, as well.
Secretary Hegseth aptly called Charlie Kirk “a warrior for country, a warrior for Christ.”
At the conclusion of his speech, Secretary Hegseth issues us all a charge to “live worthy of Charlie Kirk’s sacrifice, and put Christ at the center of your life as he advocated for giving his.”
“Charlie has heard the words,” he went on, “Well done, good and faithful servant. Charlie, we’ll take it from here.”
Watch here:

Well said, Secretary Hegseth.
Isn’t it wonderful to hear so many of our nation’s leaders openly talking about our Lord Jesus Christ today at the memorial service for a martyred Brother in Christ?
The Lord truly makes beautiful things out of the darkness.
