The death of Kirk, an evangelical Christian, has not only deeply touched many across the globe but has inspired a significant number to go to Church and explore or embrace Christianity.
Kirk was extraordinarily influential both politically and culturally. He has been credited with helping Donald Trump secure a second term as president and is also known for respectfully engaging students on campuses across the country about a wide variety of issues, including abortion, Christianity, and the Constitution.
He reportedly was recently attending Catholic Mass with his wife and children and had said he wanted to be remembered for “courage for my faith.”
