Jeremy Pryor's Podcast Charlie Kirk’s Death Unveils the Real War We’re In
The shocking murder of Charlie Kirk has shaken many of us. But more than grief, it has unveiled something deeper.
In this episode, Jeremy and Phil Cotnoir wrestle with what moments like this reveal: not just political tension, but the spiritual battle beneath it all.
What do these “micro-apocalypses” show us about meaning, about the sacred order holding our society together, and about the false religions rising in our culture?
Jeremy shares how his own thinking has been reshaped, why silence is no longer an option for Christians, and how we can respond with clarity, courage, and truth.
This is a sobering yet hope-filled conversation you won’t want to miss.
