All of us at the American Cornerstone Institute are heartbroken over the tragic passing of our dear friend and partner, Charlie Kirk.
Charlie was a devoted follower of Christ, a dedicated father and husband, and a tireless patriot who gave everything he had to preserve the principles that make America great. He possessed a sharp ability to engage in respectful dialogue discussing our nation’s pressing topics civilly and openly with everyone, including those with whom he disagreed. His unwavering commitment to faith, family, and freedom inspired millions, and his absence will be deeply felt across this nation.
ACI was fortunate to partner with Charlie and Turning Point USA on the Executive Branch for America program. Over the last few years I traveled to college campuses with TPUSA and spoke with thousands of students, encouraging the next generation of leaders. That partnership was a reflection of Charlie’s passion: to equip young Americans with truth, courage, and conviction.
Today, we grieve alongside Erika, their children, and the entire Turning Point family. We wrap them in our prayers and cling to the promise of Scripture, “Well done, good and faithful servant… enter into the joy of your master.” – Matthew 25:23
Charlie’s legacy will endure through the lives he touched and the movement he built. May we honor him by carrying forward the mission he so faithfully championed.
May he rest in peace in the arms of our Savior.
Dr. Ben Carson
