UPCOMING PROGRAM: OCTOBER 31, 2026

GUEST: FRANK TUREK, mentor to Charlie Kirk and author of The War on Reality—Recovering Truth in a World that Celebrates Lies

It was almost one year ago—Wednesday, September 10, 2025—that Christian and conservative leader Charlie Kirk, just 31-years-old, walked into an outdoor amphitheater at Utah Valley University to hold a question-and-answer event with thousands of college students.

The crowd was buzzing with anticipation. Charlie would be taking any and all questions, typically inviting those who disagreed to come to the front of the line as he advocated for the biblical worldview and conservative values. Countless videos show him doing this all over the country—conversing and debating the prominent issues of our day: abortion, gender, marriage, sexuality, economics, and politics. Charlie was one of the most well-known and influential conservative in the world.

Just minutes into the event, a shot rang out from a rooftop sniper position, fatally striking Charlie in the neck. Mayhem ensued as he was pulled into a nearby vehicle and rushed to the hospital. Despite the doctors’ best efforts, Charlie Kirk died—assassinated by Tyler Robinson, a leftist who hated Charlie’s worldview.

Standing within 25 feet of Charlie when he was shot was well-known Christian apologist Frank Turek. Frank was one of Charlie’s mentors and had helped him learn how to give reasonable, biblical answers to the questions he fielded.

Frank Turek joins us this weekend on The Christian Worldview to share about that tragic day, why Charlie’s murder is a prime example of the “war on reality” gripping our country, and how Christians must “sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence” (1 Peter 3:15-16).

NEW FEATURED RESOURCE:
Available for a donation of any amount to The Christian Worldview.

Frank Turek shares notable moments from his close friendship with Charlie Kirk while explaining the various fronts in the war against biblical truth in our culture—and how Christians must stand firm on the unchanging Word of God.
