We're In a Moment (Our Response to Charlie Kirk's Assassination) [The MANual Ep. 12]

The MANual

In this episode of The MANual, we wrestle with something heavy — the grief, anger, and conviction that have surfaced in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. It’s not just about politics. It’s about how a violent event like this forces us to look inward: at the state of our culture, our own hearts, and what real faith calls us to do right now. We cover: * What we’re feeling: mourning a public personality + what it means when someone outspoken is silenced. * Conviction: What responsibility do we hold—for speech, love, kindness—even in our disagreements. * How forgiveness is possible (and maybe necessary), even while justice matters. * What’s at stake when violence becomes a tool for silencing dissent or difference. * Personal implications: where this hits us in spiritual maturity, in community, in caring for our neighbor. * Practical responses: What do we actually do in our hearts, in our homes, and in culture when confronted with shock like this. If you’re hurting, confused, or just want to know what it looks like to respond in truth + love when the world seems to be fracturing — this episode is for you.
