Description

In a world full of division, anger, and grief, how do we respond as followers of Christ? In this episode, we reflect on the tragic death of Charlie Kirk not to dwell on politics, but to examine our own hearts and the sin that dulls our awareness of God’s presence. Using Psalm 51:7–12 as our guide, we explore David’s model of repentant lament—confessing without excuses, seeking cleansing we cannot achieve on our own, and asking God to renew our hearts and spirits. This episode is a call to turn inward, lay down bitterness, pride, and compromise, and experience the joy, intimacy, and restoration only found in Christ.
