Keith, in a time when no words seem sufficient, yours are nevertheless nourishing...and I believe true. They reflect my own thoughts from yesterday, which I recorded here: https://dianewoerner.substack.com/p/when-a-hero-dies.
Devastating. So holy that you were blessed with the words in that moment. I’m sorry for your grief and hope your grandson has experienced a life filled with love.
Thank you for offering that to remind us of the real devastation in this tragedy. Heartbreaking for his wife and their two children.
One more thought, if I may. The verse that immediately came to mind when I first heard he'd been shot (but didn't yet know how serious it was) was John 12:24. I do believe there will be immense fruit brought forth out of his dying. It's not like there are questions out there that Charlie has not already addressed. But now there is an enormous new awareness of his many engagements with those questions, and I believe those who are seeking truth will have new access in a way that is uniquely crafted to connect with them.
