Stop, in the Name of God, Kirk's Final Book on the Sabbath

Showing 22 Stop, in the Name of God videos from Charlie Kirk's video collection.

Stop, in the Name of God became Charlie Kirk's final book, completed roughly a month before his assassination. Its central argument: weekly Sabbath observance represented the most neglected commandment in modern Christian practice, one Kirk credited with saving his own marriage and family life and career after Pastor David Englehart challenged him in 2021 to examine whether he actually honored the practice during a period of personal exhaustion. Kirk described researching more than fifty books on Sabbath observance before implementing a weekly discipline of disconnecting from phones and media, a practice he and Erika Kirk built into their marriage through a shared daily commitment to asking how they could serve each other better, and one he argued served as the foundational commandment that made keeping the other nine possible.

Erika Kirk discussed the book extensively following her husband's death, describing how he finished it during family time in July and telling multiple interviewers, including Megyn Kelly and Andrew Kolvet, that he had said even changing one person's life would make the effort worthwhile. Lucas Miles, Turning Point USA's senior director of faith, defended the book against posthumous criticism, describing it as Kirk's definitive statement on finding rest amid life's demands and a message he had lived out consistently rather than simply preached to others.
