3 Megachurch Pastors Discuss Charlie Kirk’s Martyrdom & Church Revival | Live Free w/ Josh Howerton

About this sermon

In this bonus roundtable episode, Pastors Josh Howerton, @Josh_McPherson, and Ryan Visconti Visconti of @genchurchaz reflect on a weekend marked by salvations, record church attendance, and a deep spiritual hunger following Charlie Kirk’s assassination. They emphasize that this moment in history is more spiritual than it is political, urging pastors to preach the truth boldly, call for repentance, and lead with courage. Honoring Kirk as a martyr grounded in Scripture, the pastors share how church leaders can discern the times, raise spiritual urgency of the Gospel, and faithfully steward the influx of seekers turning to the Church. 👍 Like, Comment, & Subscribe for more life-changing podcasts! 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss an update! 👇 DON’T MISS OUT!
