Charlie Kirk's Celebration of Life

Ironically, it was the most victorious funeral and the most painful worship at the same time. It was raw and open.


When Phil Wickham sang Hymn of Heaven, the whole place transformed into heaven itself. I would think I wasn't even there. It was an eternal moment. I could just have died there and felt like I've made it to heaven. It was the perfect picture of reaching heaven without first dying. Cheesy as it may sound, it was the literal composure of heaven on earth. I have never experienced anything like that before. I can't explain it -- it's something I would have to pinch myself to get out of. But it was real. I was blown away. I did not just see it, it was like I was there. The elders, the angels, the throne, the heroes of the faith, Jesus, Charlie, the cloud of witnesses, you name it, every martyr, every disciple that ever served the Lord, from the Old Testament to the New Testament, -- they were all there. And the fact that I saw it all,... I was speechless. Just no words. I did not want it to end. I almost floated away. It was like I was there and not there anymore. I was in Heaven -- and the whole stadium was with me.

Mommy, what's Santa?

What I did with mine was that when they mentioned Santa, I would tell them the truth. Lying is a sin. And they need to trust us because if Santa can be fake and we make them believe that, they will think Jesus is fake too. Our credibility is at stake.  This is what I say: "So the truth is that Santa was actually St Nicholas -- he was a very good guy and this is what he did for the kids who couldn't afford toys but then he died a long time ago. People today just want to remember his contributions but the way they did it took away the true meaning of Christmas of Jesus and His birth. And that's why we don't do Santa. But other kids do, and their parents lie to them about it. But we must not interfere with what other parents say to their kids. So if someone asks, it's ok to say that we just don't do Santa. We do Baby Jesus."

Jesus is the Son of God, not just a prophet

 30 I and My Father are one.” John 10:30 61 But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” 62 Jesus said, “I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” Mark 14:61-62 13 When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” 14 So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 18 And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. 19 And ...

Oreo Method: Delegating to Kids

Two ways to do it -- I call this the Oreo Method: you either eat the cookies or the cream: Cookie Method If you aren't in a hurry that day, the kids routinely do the tasks they're worst at until they 'graduate' from doing that task -- you're happy with the standards they're achieving for that task. This can go on for months. Cream Method Or when you're in a hurry: the other way around -- the kids do the chores they're the best at and the house gets put in order quickly.
