Charlie Kirk - Did I Know You?

I know this much...

I remember the day Princess Di died and man, I cried a lot!

Also, watching Michael Jackson's funeral brought me to a sobbing mess!

Plus, I wailed at the back of a cinema during the Fast and furious 7 movie, as the final scene came on as a tribute to Paul Walker!

As for Charlie Kirk, when I read that he had been killed, I felt like I went into shock - a state of sheer disbelief. It was as though I’d just received news that my own brother had died.

Did I know Charlie Kirk personally?

Did I know any of these people personally?

No!

So, why did their deaths rattle me so much?

Did they rattle you? What about when a close relative or loved one died?

Why does death, rattle us?

Even the death of a stranger like Charlie Kirk or even Elvis?

Well, I share two of my reasons right here on this episode of the April May Gems Show

(available LIVE first via FreshFM radio, NZ from 7:30pm - on Tuesday the 30th September and via podcast shortly after.)

I also play a Charlie tribute song on the show that was written and sung by a country rap truck driver by the name of Diesel.

I also hope to challenge you with these two words (which also happen to be the titles of two other songs I play on the show today) …

Rise Up!

Be encouraged, inspired, uplifted and even challenged, as you listen to Episode 59 on the April May Gems Show - When the Death of a Stranger Rattles Us – like Charlie Kirk.
