Summary

Segment 1



• Charlie Kirk memorial created a “cultural moment” and Christian revival.



• Revival sparks emotion, but true reformation requires Scripture and discipleship.



• Gospel must remain central—don’t swap truth for politics or feelings.



Segment 2



• True reformation is built on ordinary means: Word, prayer, sacraments, discipleship.



• Local churches—not viral events—grow Christians for the long haul.



• Fearless discipleship starts at the kitchen table and in the pew, not in stadiums.



Segment 3



• Bishop sells $13M condo funded by the poor vs. Canada’s euthanasia surge.



• 1 in 20 deaths in Canada now comes from “assisted dying.”



• Both stories reveal comfort over sacrifice—but Christ calls us to self-denial.



Segment 4



• Catholic sex abuse scandal: $230M settlement, 500+ victims in one diocese.



• Quebec bans public prayer—secularism legislated into daily life.



• Taliban’s rules leave Afghan women to die—contrasted with Jesus’ radical dignity toward women at the cross.
