Charlie Kirk’s wife, Erika, revealed that their 3-year-old daughter has found comfort after her father’s death knowing that she will see him again some day in Heaven.
“We’ve come to the understanding, and I’ve tried to explain this to her, that Daddy’s still with us, he’s just in a different location, and he’s building us a home in heaven. And I’ve said this before, but she said, ‘I can’t wait to go.’ I said, ‘Me too, baby,’” Erika told Fox News’ Sean Hannity.
“My daughter and I, we’ve talked about this at night. She would ask, ‘What do you think Daddy did today in heaven?’ And I’ll have her relay that back to me,” Kirk added.

Charlie Kirk was shot and killed while speaking at a Utah college campus in September. His family has clung to their faith since his death, relying on the Lord to get through this extremely difficult time. Meanwhile, the Lord has been faithful and helped Erika and her kids find peace and healing after Charlie’s death.
“The world is evil. But our Savior. Our Lord. Our God. He… He is so good. I will never have the words. Ever. The sound of this widow weeping echoes throughout this world like a battle cry,” Erika wrote on an Instagram post shortly after her husband’s death. “I have no idea what any of this means. But baby I know you do and so does our Lord,” she said, speaking to her late husband. “They have no idea what they just ignited within this wife. If they thought my husband’s mission was big now…you have no idea. You. All of you. Will never. Ever. Forget my husband @charliekirk1776 I’ll make sure of it.”
Charlie’s death has not only ignited his family’s faith, but also the faith of our nation as millions have decided to take their faith seriously and to attend church following his death.
“It’s been five days of seeing God do what He does — bring people to Himself, stack the odds against Himself to tear them down,” explained Allie Beth Stuckey. “I’ve seen Charlie’s martyred blood water the seeds of revival and I’ve seen those seeds already begin to take root and sprout up. Charlie’s unflinching boldness for the gospel is not for naught. It has already ignited so much faith, so much hope and fierceness for the truth.”
“It’s brought people to their knees, to the pews, into their Bibles, many for the first time,” Stuckey continued. “Many for the first time in a long time. I mean, no doubt, churches were fuller yesterday than they were the previous Sunday. I heard from so many of you that your pews were fuller, that there were spontaneous baptisms at your church, that people walked down to the altar and gave their lives to Christ, that you’ve had atheists, agnostics, seeking friends reach out to you, asking to come to church with you.”
Charlie Kirk’s death was a true tragedy for our nation, however, it has been amazing to see how the Lord has used it for good to bring revival across the country, starting with Kirk’s own family.
