PHOENIX—In an interview just months before his assassination, Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk said, “I want to be remembered for courage for my faith, that would be the most important thing. The most important thing is my faith.”

More than 10,000 gathered at AmericaFest in Phoenix over the weekend, the first major Turning Point USA conference since Kirk’s death on Sept. 10. When The Daily Signal asked attendees about Kirk’s legacy, their responses showed that Kirk is being remembered exactly how he wanted to be.
Charlie Kirk, a Christian Martyr
Attendees of Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest shared with The Daily Signal that Kirk’s faith has inspired them to live out their Christian faith.
“I see Charlie Kirk’s legacy as living in faith, living in purpose, living out his God-given gift of blessing others through communication, through civil discourse, and through living a life that was believing in the best of America, believing in the best of his family,” said a father who brought his three young daughters to the event. “[Kirk] is inspiring generations to love Jesus.”
Just got home from church.
I wore my white freedom Charlie Kirk shirt.
Saw a guy there wearing the same thing.
I shook his hand and he told me he started coming to church after what happened to Charlie.
I felt that.
THAT is the legacy Charlie would be proud of.… pic.twitter.com/AglVeY4aIc

“I see Charlie Kirk’s legacy as a martyr who wanted to make a difference in the world,” one young woman told The Daily Signal.
One young man, wearing the white “Freedom” shirt Charlie was wearing when he was killed, said, “I see him as a disciple, and a leader, and a role model, specifically to young men.”
TPUSA Announces ‘Make Heaven Crowded Tour’
AmericaFest also put faith at the center of the weekend’s festivities.
The conference included a Faith Night on Saturday with worship and prayer on the main stage. The audience also heard from Christian leaders like Allie Beth Stuckey and Bryce Crawford.
On Sunday morning, the doors opened earlier than usual for continued worship and a church service.
Since Kirk’s death, the organization has partnered with over 8,000 churches nationwide. Kirk’s wife and new Turning Point USA CEO, Erika Kirk, announced the organization’s 2026 Make Heaven Crowded tour.
Andrew Kolvet, Turning Point spokesman and executive producer of “The Charlie Kirk Show,” told Christian Broadcasting Network that this will be a “revival tour all across the country.” The tour will travel to major cities, including Washington, D.C., Phoenix, and Nashville.
Faith Takes Center Stage
Speakers from the main stage extolled the virtues of Charlie Kirk’s faith as well.
“Charlie’s death made me want to reconnect with God,” said Fox News host Jesse Watters on the main stage Saturday night. He had previously shared with Erika Kirk that, since Charlie Kirk’s death, he has formed a Bible study with his male co-hosts on “The Five,” calling it “the most beautiful thing.”

St. John 17:1
These words spake Jesus, and lifted his eyes to heaven, and said, ” Father, the hour has come, glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given Him. And this is life eternal, that they might know thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you has sent.I have glorified Thee on the earth,, I have finished the work which You gaveth me to do. And now, O Father, glorify thou me with Thou own self with the glory I had with You before the world was. 9 I pray for them : I pray not for the world, but for them which You have given Me. , for they are mine. 15 I pray that God will keep them from evil. They are not of the world, even as I am not. 17 Sanctify them thur God’s truth, thy word is truth. 18 Enen as You has sent me, I also sent them into the world. 21 That they may be one: as God, Father, art in Me, and Jesus in thee, that they also may be one, even as We are One23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that thou hast sent Jesus and hast loved them, as God has loved Jesus 24, I will , that they also, , whom God hast given Jesus, be with Jesus, where Jesus is: that they may behold My glory, which God has given me: for God loveth Jesus before the foundation of the world!!!

FATHER YeHoVaH wakeup your shepherd’s to be COURAGES and speak TRUTH about YOUR SON and YOUR Chosen People. YOUR EKKLESIA-CIVIC GOVERNMENT-WE THE PEOPLE must VOTE for Conservative Capitalism Christian Freedom Values and GO MAKE DISCIPLES IN YESHUA’S HOLY NAME AMEN AMEN
Claiming Romans 8:28 over the martyrdom of beloved Charlie Kirk. Our Lord knows the beginning from the end. Mrs. Kirk was absolutely giving a worldwide prophecy when she said his death would unleash the most profound movement of God across the nations! My cousin gave me a cherished gift this Christmas. She ordered me a wrist band from Turning Point U.S.A. which says:
WE ARE CHARLIE KIRK. The body of Christ must be so in tune with His Second Coming that we are watching and sometimes participating in the martyrdom of Christians around the world and in various persecutions. What did Paul say? “Count it all joy.”
Dear Father, help us to be Your disciples, not just complacent, busy Christians occupying a pew one day of the week or even less. Wake us up, dear Lord, for your redemption draws nigh!. In the mighty name of Your Son and Savior of the World, Jesus Christ of Nazareth/ Yeshua HaMashiach! Amen and amen.
my prayer God that the conservatives come in unity to defeat evil. I pray for Tucker, Candace Owen and those who have come against Israel and support Hamas and some who are holocaust deniers. Open the eyes and hearts of the blind to see truth that we as a nation need to bless Israel so no curse comes our way. I pray in Jesus’s name.
