I first met Charlie Kirk a dozen years ago on the campus of Colorado Christian University, where I was teaching some 40 high school students a two-week course on the Constitution and the outline of American history.

Bill Armstrong—then the president of CCU, a former US Senator—asked me to set aside an hour to two for a young man starting a new project called “Turning Point USA.” That was Charlie—at age 18 or 19. Of course, I agreed.

I was not prepared. Charlie took and held their attention and implanted in them an enthusiasm for political engagement of the sort that endures. He had a gift. Charisma cannot be taught. It simply shows up. Charlie had it. He never lost it.

All is hardly lost in the ongoing struggle to preserve the Constitution and religious liberty. Charlie would be the first to say the Lord is in control.

We shall not see his equal again.
