Turning Point Mourns Charlie Kirk: “Our Country Is at a Turning Point—People Will See Jesus and Speak His Name Boldly”

Phoenix, September 16, 2025 — In the shadow of Charlie Kirk’s shocking assassination last week, a gathering of Turning Point USA staffers and supporters turned what could have been a somber vigil into a call to arms for faith and action. One member of the “Posse”—the tight-knit team around the late conservative firebrand—shared a message that’s resonating across the right: This tragedy isn’t just a loss; it’s a divine pivot for America, urging Christians to step up without fear.

“I believe our country is at a turning point,” the Posse member said during a heartfelt podcast tribute aired Friday from Turning Point’s Phoenix headquarters. “People are going to see Jesus and be unafraid to speak about Him.” The words, delivered amid tears and resolve, echoed Kirk’s own unapologetic blend of politics and piety. He continued: “We need to be bold as Christians to speak out, use our voice, and reach people for Jesus Christ. Find out who Jesus is. Jesus Christ is alive—then Charlie is alive. And I will see him again. And I thank God for that assurance.”

It’s a stark reminder of the man behind the movement. Kirk co-founded Turning Point in 2012 to fire up Gen Z for conservative causes, but he always framed it as a spiritual battle too. His widow, Erika, vowed at a weekend memorial to keep the events rolling, saying Charlie’s “spirit of love and truth” lives on. Flags are still at half-staff nationwide after President Trump’s order, and the FBI’s $100,000 reward hunt for suspect Tyler Robinson drags on, with tips flooding in.

For the Posse and fans like 20-year-old Jenna Gill, who joined a prayer circle outside headquarters, this “turning point” means channeling grief into gospel. “Be like Charlie,” Posobiec urged listeners. In a divided nation reeling from political violence—from Trump’s own close calls to this gut punch—the message lands heavy: Bold faith, they say, is the antidote. As one supporter posted online, “Charlie’s gone, but Jesus isn’t. Time to speak up.” Whether it sparks revival or just more rallies, one thing’s clear—Kirk’s legacy is far from buried.# Faith Amid Fury: ‘Posse’ Delivers Raw Testimony at Charlie Kirk Vigil, Urging Boldness for Christ

Dallas, September 16, 2025 — The air was thick with grief and resolve Monday night at a packed vigil for Charlie Kirk in Dallas, where hundreds gathered under stadium lights to honor the slain conservative activist. But amid the tears and chants, one voice cut through like a clarion call: a man known simply as “Posse,” a longtime Turning Point USA supporter and self-described “soldier for Christ,” who turned the evening into a rallying cry for unapologetic faith.

Standing on a makeshift stage flanked by Kirk’s signature red Turning Point banners, Posse gripped the mic with both hands, his voice steady despite the emotion. “I believe our country is at a turning point,” he said, eyes scanning the crowd of young conservatives, many still reeling from Wednesday’s rooftop sniper attack at Utah Valley University. “People are going to see Jesus and be unafraid to speak about Him.” It was a moment that shifted the focus from loss to legacy, echoing Kirk’s own blend of politics and piety.

Posse didn’t sugarcoat the pain. Kirk, just 31, was more than a firebrand organizer to him—he was a brother in the fight. “We need to be bold as Christians to speak out, use our voice, and reach people for Jesus Christ,” Posse urged, his words landing like punches in a quiet arena. He paused, then added with quiet fire: “Find out who Jesus is. Jesus Christ is alive—then Charlie is alive. And I will see him again. And I thank God for that assurance.”

The crowd erupted, phones held high to capture what felt like a sermon straight from the trenches. Posse wrapped with a simple charge: “Love like Jesus and just tell people about Jesus.” It’s the kind of no-frills gospel that Kirk championed, turning policy rants into personal invitations.

For attendees like 22-year-old college junior Mia Reyes, it hit home. “Charlie always said faith fuels the fight—this reminded us why we’re here,” she said afterward, wiping her eyes. As investigations into suspect Tyler Robinson grind on, nights like this aren’t just mourning; they’re mobilizing. Posse’s words? A spark in the dark, reminding folks that even in America’s fractures, hope—and heaven—waits. If Kirk’s spirit lives on, it’s in voices like this.
