Courage, Faith, and America’s Future: A Call to Action

[00:09] [music]

[00:12] in life. You will realize the more

[00:15] rewarding thing to do [music] might be

[00:17] the more difficult thing to do. That is

[00:20] a guaranteed way that you will

[00:22] experience opposition. The most

[00:24] important question is not whether it is

[00:26] easy or not. It is, is it worth it? And

[00:31] the more often that you choose the deep,

[00:34] the difficult, [music] but the right

[00:36] path over the easy path is one [music]

[00:40] that will reward you, your family, and

[00:43] this beautiful nation.

[00:46] He felt [music] believing America was

[00:48] worth dying for. And for 250 years, our

[00:52] history has been written by those who

[00:54] stood [music] firm against every force

[00:57] who swore to break this country. [music]

[01:12] [cheering]

[01:16] Heat.

[01:29] Heat.

[01:36] [music]

[01:50] We are in a spiritual [music] war

[01:51] everybody that is beyond just the

[01:53] material that we are seeing. This

[01:55] country was founded by courageous

[01:57] bibleelving Christians. Jeremiah 29:7

[02:00] [music]

[02:01] seeks the welfare of the nation that you

[02:03] are in because your welfare is tied to

[02:05] your nation's welfare. What makes this

[02:08] movement different [music] is that you

[02:10] are here as a grassroots response to the

[02:13] top [music] down revolution happening in

[02:15] this country. Disobedience to tyrants is

[02:18] obedience to God. [music]

[02:20] Because liberty is not man's idea. It is

[02:24] God's idea.

[02:28] >> [music]

[02:28] >> Will the people who are the sovereign in

[02:31] this country do everything they possibly

[02:33] [music] can through this incredible

[02:34] blessing given to us by God to fight

[02:37] back and win.

[02:41] [music]

[02:45] Where then is the road to peace? You and

[02:47] [music] I have the courage to say to our

[02:49] enemies there is a price we will not

[02:51] pay. There is a point beyond [music]

[02:53] which they must not advance.

[03:00] When Turning [music] Point USA was

[03:01] started, I could not have imagined what

[03:04] God had in store [music] for this

[03:05] organization. My political journey was

[03:09] in the midst of the Obama craze in

[03:12] Chicago. As someone who [music] was

[03:14] generally conservative, I realized this

[03:16] generation, millennials, is going to be

[03:18] the most progressive generation in

[03:19] history if we don't do something about

[03:21] this.

[03:22] We're we're active in about 15 campuses

[03:24] and we're growing [music] very very

[03:25] quickly. And keep in mind, this is not

[03:27] just a flash in the pan movement. Uh

[03:28] we're going to become an institution to

[03:30] give them the power and the confidence

[03:32] to stand up and let their voice be

[03:34] heard. I was 18, [music] no idea what I

[03:37] was doing. No connections, no money. We

[03:39] didn't have an office. We didn't have a

[03:40] staff. It was just me [music] just

[03:41] traveling the country doing this pure

[03:43] grit, pure energy. We are an

[03:44] organization committed [music] to ideas

[03:47] and to principles, not the political

[03:48] parties or politicians. We are in a

[03:50] generational battle right now that the

[03:53] stakes could not be higher and the

[03:55] [music] experiment and the gift that our

[03:57] founding fathers gave to us could be

[03:59] easily lost if we don't make the proper

[04:01] [music] choices and rights. That's a lot

[04:04] of people you tell.

[04:07] [cheering]

[04:09] >> After Charlie's assassination, we didn't

[04:11] see violence. Instead, we saw what my

[04:14] husband always prayed. We saw revival.

[04:20] You're going to hear what Charlie did,

[04:22] but I'm here today to tell you the why

[04:25] in what he did. The why brought him the

[04:28] courage. The why brought him the wisdom

[04:31] and the strength.

[04:33] The why is the one that Charlie wanted

[04:36] to [music] welcome as the guest of

[04:37] honor. The guest of honor, his resume is

[04:40] long.

[04:42] He's the king of glory.

[04:44] He's the prince of peace.

[04:46] >> [music]

[04:47] >> He's the savior of the world. He's the

[04:50] living God. He's the God of all mercy

[04:53] and grace,

[04:55] the total embodiment of love, the total

[04:58] embodiment of truth. And he's here today

[05:01] to call his children back to him.

[05:04] [music]

[05:05] I know I speak for everyone here today

[05:07] when I say that none of us will ever

[05:10] forget Charlie Kirk. We speak with

[05:14] Charlie and for Charlie louder than

[05:16] ever.

[05:20] [music] The tyrant dies and his rule is

[05:23] over. The martyr dies and his rule has

[05:26] just begun. [music]

[05:29] We should be thankful, not angry to live

[05:31] in this country. [music] Would you

[05:32] agree? We should be thankful. We should

[05:33] be pissed in the ground and say we are

[05:35] the luckiest human being [music] ever to

[05:37] exist that we are able to live in this

[05:39] country at this time. And yet I I see

[05:42] that [music] half our country seems

[05:43] upset. They see they seem angry that

[05:46] they're born [music] in this country.

[05:48] America is the greatest country ever to

[05:50] exist. Period. Bar none. Is the greatest

[05:52] country ever to exist. Right.

[05:55] [music]

[05:56] 250 years of brave Americans have proven

[05:59] those words true. Ordinary people

[06:01] [music] choosing sacrifice over comfort,

[06:04] duty over self. I want to honor God in

[06:07] all that I do. I want to be a great

[06:09] husband, a [music] great father. I want

[06:11] to serve this country. I want to try to

[06:14] continue to lead [music] this movement

[06:15] and to speak truth and to never lie. To

[06:17] stop thinking about yourself all the

[06:19] time and then think about what you

[06:21] should do to help other people and to

[06:23] defend [music] this country above

[06:25] yourself. You still live in the greatest

[06:27] nation ever to exist in the [music]

[06:28] history of the world. There is still so

[06:30] much to be hopeful and to be thankful

[06:32] for. And we have agency. [music]

[06:35] When truth is under attack, America has

[06:37] always answered with voices [music] that

[06:40] refuse to be silenced. Charlie was one

[06:43] of those voices. And now it's our turn

[06:45] to [music] pick up the mic. We have only

[06:49] begun to fight.
