Summary

Part of equipping your children is giving biblical perspectives on the important events and issues of our time. So how do you talk about the Charlie Kirk assassination and what are the lessons that can come from this? Isaac and Angie Tolpin give you some key scriptures, powerful insights, and warnings that will encourage you but also help you navigate these important parenting conversations. Normal Christian parenting is largely failing so it’s vital to be introspective, to take a fresh look at your parenting approach, and to realize that if society has changed, we need to level up our intentionality in our homes.

Develop the art of giving biblical perspectives on hard things happening in the world. There’s no time to spare to truly disciple our children in the Bible, Spiritual warfare, and how to glorify God with our lives without fear in the world. Let’s be like Charlie and equip our children to be as well!
