[00:02:07]  Hey, everybody.
[00:02:08]  Great to be here.
[00:02:09]  Wow.
[00:02:10]  Steve, what a group.
[00:02:11]  This is amazing.
[00:02:13]  New Mexico is not a lost cause.
[00:02:15]  No, it's not.
[00:02:16]  We're still fighting, right?
[00:02:18]  Let's fight.
[00:02:22]  You know, I want to welcome everybody.
[00:02:23]  We have some pastors here, too.
[00:02:24]  If you're a pastor, would you do me a favor?
[00:02:26]  Would you just stand right now so we can acknowledge you if you're with me?
[00:02:29]  Thank you.
[00:02:30]  Thank you for being with us.
[00:02:32]  Thank you.
[00:02:36]  You know what?
[00:02:37]  We work together.
[00:02:38]  We can win.
[00:02:39]  And I said this to the pastors a minute ago that when I heard about Charlie Kirk way back when COVID was first happening, I thought, man, he's the one God raised up to help fight for the kingdom.
[00:02:53]  And he says he's not a pastor or a theologian, but I think he's more of a theologian.
[00:03:00]  He knows a ton of stuff.
[00:03:02]  He's smart.
[00:03:03]  And Pastor Charlie, see, I'm prophesying now, man.
[00:03:08]  I'm not a pastor.
[00:03:10]  I am a patriot, though, but I'm not a pastor.
[00:03:16]  But I want to thank you for coming to New Mexico.
[00:03:18]  I'm always honored when you come, and it helps.
[00:03:21]  You know, I love the people of New Mexico, and don't love your government, I got to be honest.
[00:03:26]  Not a fan.
[00:03:30]  And somebody asked me, this is how you know your state needs some work, when somebody said, so why are you going to New Mexico?
[00:03:40]  And I said, honestly, the first reason is Pastor Steve.
[00:03:44]  This is a very special man.
[00:03:46]  He's a great man.
[00:03:49]  He has what I would call Elijah energy.
[00:03:54]  If you don't get the reference, just read the Bible.
[00:03:57]  You'll understand what I mean.
[00:03:59]  And the second reason is this church.
[00:04:00]  You guys always so warmly welcome me.
[00:04:02]  You support us.
[00:04:04]  And all throughout the year, I get emails from people who come here, who listen to our show, who support us in Turning Point USA.
[00:04:11]  And you guys supported me when we went to our mostly peaceful event at University of New Mexico.
[00:04:17]  You were there, I remember that.
[00:04:18]  That was something.
[00:04:20]  And the third reason is: I believe New Mexico is the most pagan state in the country.
[00:04:26]  Not the least godly, but the most pagan, where there's just a lot of weird stuff in this state.
[00:04:33]  And this state needs a revival, needs liberty lovers and freedom fighters to rise like never before.
[00:04:44]  And I am a contrarian by nature, Steve.
[00:04:50]  So when people say something is a lost cause, I have a tendency to lean in.
[00:04:55]  When people say, oh, you're not allowed to have that person on your podcast, like, why?
[00:04:59]  I like that person.
[00:05:00]  I'm going to have him my podcast.
[00:05:01]  I hate being told what to do.
[00:05:04]  And by, let's just say, not so impressive people.
[00:05:09]  I also have this idea of a social contract that there's no such thing as a forgotten part of America.
[00:05:16]  And we're all in this as American citizens.
[00:05:20]  And New Mexico needs the attention.
[00:05:22]  It needs the support.
[00:05:23]  And honestly, you need the encouragement to continue to fight for these ideas and these values and these truths.
[00:05:29]  And that's what we're going to talk about tonight.
[00:05:31]  You know, the last time he was here, there was some witch doctors in the house.
[00:05:36]  This is a true story.
[00:05:38]  And they put some kind of two times ago, actually.
[00:05:41]  And he got sick.
[00:05:43]  So here's what I'm going to start this off with.
[00:05:45]  In the name of Jesus, if that's you, you can't do anything in this house to anybody.
[00:05:51]  And it's not an exaggeration.
[00:05:54]  I mentioned this on my show, and the media ridiculed me.
[00:05:57]  I said, I came here with this church once, and I talked about how, you know, transgenderism is from the pit of hell, and that how, you know, a 13-year-old should not be taught this idea that you could change your sex because it's not true, and that we should not chemically castrate our young people.
[00:06:14]  I talked about how we should not allow the innocent to be massacred in the womb.
[00:06:18]  And three people stood up, and I wasn't sure what they were doing.
[00:06:21]  And I got super sick at that very moment.
[00:06:25]  And they were doing all sorts of weird things.
[00:06:27]  And you know this if you live here, there's a very strange, like shaman witch culture thing.
[00:06:34]  And the media came after, oh, Charlie Kirk claims he was hexed at a church.
[00:06:39]  100% true.
[00:06:40]  My team will say, and hey, the land of enchantment strikes again.
[00:06:44]  Let's just put it that way.
[00:06:45]  But not tonight.
[00:06:46]  Not today, Satan.
[00:06:47]  Jesus is going to let's get right into what you've already mentioned.
[00:06:56]  The transgender, homosexual, alphabet mafia type people and where we should stand as individuals, as parents, that maybe they're dealing with this in their families.
[00:07:13]  But it never negates the scriptures.
[00:07:16]  No matter what we're doing with our kids, it doesn't negate what the Bible says.
[00:07:21]  And it's not confusing.
[00:07:22]  It's very clear.
[00:07:23]  And so you have a lot of information about that and a lot of thoughts.
[00:07:29]  And so let's just dig into that one right now.
[00:07:31]  Yeah, this is a social contagion.
[00:07:33]  And this is something that some people are afraid to talk about.
[00:07:35]  They're afraid to engage in.
[00:07:37]  We need to lean right in.
[00:07:39]  We need to lean in as parents.
[00:07:40]  We need to lean in as patriots.
[00:07:42]  We need to lean in as churchgoers, as followers of Christ, as lovers of the word.
[00:07:46]  We need to lean in.
[00:07:47]  Because this thing is accelerating in its ferocity.
[00:07:50]  It's accelerating at how they're going after children.
[00:07:53]  But let's just remember the sequence of events.
[00:07:56]  For years we were told, live and let live.
[00:08:00]  That is a lie.
[00:08:01]  It is live and let them rule.
[00:08:04]  It is not live and let live.
[00:08:06]  If it was just about some guy wearing a dress in his living room, that we would not be talking about that.
[00:08:12]  Okay, that's weird, it's delusional, it's creepy, it's strange.
[00:08:15]  But that's not what we'd be opening up our very precious and valuable time with.
[00:08:19]  This is now a social contagion, where that if you do not agree with it, you could lose your job.
[00:08:25]  That if you don't teach your kids it, then all of a sudden you're a hater.
[00:08:29]  That you could lose possession of your kids in certain states.
[00:08:33]  In the state of Washington, I would not be surprised if this doesn't happen here sometime soon.
[00:08:38]  If you are 13 years old, a parent is not allowed in the doctor's office visit with the kid unless the kid says, I want the parent there.
[00:08:48]  13 years old.
[00:08:51]  This is an intentional agenda to separate you from your children.
[00:08:57]  30 years ago, there were two gender-affirming care clinics in America.
[00:09:02]  Now there are hundreds.
[00:09:03]  What has changed?
[00:09:04]  Well, TikTok is not helping.
[00:09:06]  I'll be very honest.
[00:09:07]  Young people are being exposed to these ideas at a very early age.
[00:09:11]  Number two, this is largely being driven by young ladies that do not have strong father figures around, and they are in social and moral chaos.
[00:09:21]  Single mothers are heroes for what they have to do.
[00:09:24]  But if they do not have a father figure around to tell them no, it is the father's job to say no to restore order in the home.
[00:09:33]  God created men and women and God created the covenant of marriage for a reason to raise kids.
[00:09:39]  So we have socially chaotic environments at homes where then there are kids that are susceptible to this.
[00:09:46]  Now there are two types.
[00:09:47]  There are men who think they are women and women who think they are men.
[00:09:50]  Interestingly, the women who think they are men, which is a delusion, it's not true, happens mostly at 11, 12, or 13 years old.
[00:09:59]  This is puberty anxiety that is being weaponized in a way to castrate our kids.
[00:10:05]  If I took 10 random women here, I said, was there any time where you felt uncomfortable in your body when you were 11, 12, or 13 years old?
[00:10:14]  You're all laughing.
[00:10:15]  You're like, of course.
[00:10:18]  But puberty was the solution.
[00:10:21]  We're now saying puberty is the problem and giving them puberty blockers.
[00:10:26]  When in reality, we should allow nature, God's design, to run its course.
[00:10:31]  We need people in these young ladies' lives and say, you are not what you might think you are in that moment.
[00:10:37]  I am glad that the dumb things that I believed when I was 12 years old were not irreversible damage to myself or my body.
[00:10:46]  And yet we now have an entire regime that is set up saying that if you might even think you are that thing, then you can get loopron.
[00:10:56]  You can get your breasts removed.
[00:10:58]  It's even worse than that.
[00:10:59]  We are actively seeking it out.
[00:11:01]  We have teachers.
[00:11:02]  We have doctors that are saying, are you sure you're not the other gender?
[00:11:06]  What gender are you?
[00:11:07]  We are inviting quote-unquote gender transition where kids were like, well, maybe I do have to identify.
[00:11:14]  It is now the fashionable and the cool thing where you get special points, special attention.
[00:11:20]  So imagine the attention seekers back when I was in high school or in elementary school, they used to be the pranksters.
[00:11:28]  Now the attention seekers are the transgender kids.
[00:11:31]  You get extra attention of how wild and how wacky you can be.
[00:11:36]  And this is what we must be so clear with.
[00:11:39]  And the media comes after anyone who dares to say this, is that it does not have to be this way.
[00:11:45]  Is that if you address it with truth, what we have known through history and the psychological literature is that it ends.
[00:11:52]  But unfortunately, the entire scientific community, from the pediatricians, from the American Psychiatric Association to the AMA, they are blackmailing parents.
[00:12:02]  There might be some parents here tonight that are being actively blackmailed.
[00:12:07]  And I want to tell you what's going on.
[00:12:09]  They're all given the most powerful, quite honestly evil one-liner in the history of parenting.
[00:12:17]  They will take the parent into the room and they'll say, look, your kid's transgender, and there's nothing we can do about it, and we're going to affirm that young person.
[00:12:25]  And if you don't, I just want you to understand, would you rather have a dead daughter or a live son?
[00:12:33]  They are told this and to say this.
[00:12:35]  And all of a sudden, as a parent, you're like, oh, my goodness, that is emotional blackmail, everybody.
[00:12:40]  Instead, you should say, get out of the way, witch doctor.
[00:12:44]  I'm going to tell the truth to my kid.
[00:12:47]  And that's what this is.
[00:12:49]  This is witchcraft.
[00:12:51]  To think that you can change the being of a kid.
[00:12:55]  And it is this huge lie.
[00:12:57]  So even if you're a 14-year-old girl and you believe that you are a boy, and you're under this delusion and nothing works, there's another lie that happens where you convince that girl by chopping off your parts that you can then become the boy, which will never happen.
[00:13:12]  So it's a non-stop pursuit of something that they will never arrive at.
[00:13:19]  Just, okay, I'm going to get a hysterectomy.
[00:13:22]  I have to get a fake this, a fake that, these drugs.
[00:13:25]  And then you find out that when they're 26, 27, 28 years old, they want to kill themselves.
[00:13:30]  And we wonder why.
[00:13:32]  And they are damaged.
[00:13:33]  And what we are seeing now, and we can go as deep as you want, Steve, into this, we are seeing tens of thousands, and it's just the beginning, of detransitioners, of young ladies and young men that say, well, when do I get to have puberty?
[00:13:46]  There is no puberty for them.
[00:13:49]  We gave them Lupron, which, by the way, we give to rapists in prison to try to castrate them.
[00:13:55]  And they're like, well, when do I get to, maybe I'm a girl and I thought I was always a girl.
[00:13:59]  They're left with nothing except, sorry, the medical industry made millions off of you, pal.
[00:14:05]  Made millions off of you.
[00:14:07]  And we exploited you.
[00:14:10]  The final thought on this, Steve, and we can riff on this.
[00:14:12]  There's this unbelievably powerful detransitioner video that's happening out of New Hampshire.
[00:14:17]  And this young lady comes up in tears and she says, I'm never going to be able to have kids.
[00:14:21]  I'm permanently infertile.
[00:14:23]  I never had puberty.
[00:14:24]  But let me tell you why.
[00:14:26]  It's because from a young age, everybody around me was afraid to do anything but affirm me.
[00:14:33]  And affirmation ruined my life.
[00:14:36]  You should not affirm the mutilation of young people.
[00:14:41]  It is our job as adults to stand up against it.

=== Womanhood As A Costume (15:48) ===

[00:14:45]  This is not some sort of fringe issue.
[00:14:47]  This is in our classrooms.
[00:14:49]  This is in our social media.
[00:14:50]  It's coming after every single kid.
[00:14:52]  And it is from the pit of hell.
[00:14:55]  This is spiritual warfare, everybody, of Lucifer himself trying to come after your kids.
[00:15:01]  And only the truth of Jesus Christ can stop it.
[00:15:04]  The question is, will the church have the cojones to say, you're not coming after our kids?
[00:15:14]  So there's not 733 different genders.
[00:15:17]  There's zero genders.
[00:15:20]  There's zero genders.
[00:15:21]  There's two sexes.
[00:15:24]  Gender is a made-up term.
[00:15:25]  Reject the premise.
[00:15:28]  Gender was introduced in the 1960s in psychological literature by people who hate you and hate your values as a way to try to make you think that gender is on a spectrum.
[00:15:36]  There are zero values.
[00:15:37]  Gender does not exist.
[00:15:38]  Sex does.
[00:15:39]  That's it.
[00:15:40]  You might have a horoscope.
[00:15:41]  You might have a personality.
[00:15:43]  You might have a certain attraction.
[00:15:44]  You might have a delusion.
[00:15:45]  You might have a psychological condition.
[00:15:47]  But that doesn't make you a different gender.
[00:15:49]  We have accepted the premise.
[00:15:51]  There are two sexes, male and female.
[00:15:53]  That's it.
[00:15:54]  There is nothing else.
[00:15:56]  That's so good.
[00:15:57]  So the next time, when someone says, oh, how many genders are, you say there's no genders.
[00:16:02]  It's a made-up term.
[00:16:04]  They have created a whole new category and they were so smart because they introduced it slowly.
[00:16:09]  Because you notice how they no longer say what sex are you.
[00:16:12]  They say what gender are you?
[00:16:14]  Which they might as well say, like, what is your birthstone?
[00:16:21]  Or what month were you born in?
[00:16:23]  Oh, I'm Capricorn.
[00:16:24]  It's irrelevant.
[00:16:25]  Instead, it's the sex issue that matters.
[00:16:28]  And so this is why we are going to lose.
[00:16:30]  Oh, 800 genders, 900.
[00:16:32]  They're never going to stop.
[00:16:34]  Because now they've convinced the society that gender is nothing more than your individual personality trait.
[00:16:39]  This is why the pride flag is now eating itself, literally.
[00:16:43]  You notice how the pride flag changed these last couple of years?
[00:16:46]  Used to just be the hijacking of God's covenant with his people to never destroy the earth again, which, of course, remember, Satan will always take the symbols and the promises of God and invert them against us, always.
[00:16:56]  And that's what he did with the rainbow, right?
[00:16:58]  One of our most precious symbols, by the way, we should reclaim the rainbow.
[00:17:01]  Reclaim the rainbow, everybody, from the homosexual lobby.
[00:17:06]  We need to reclaim the rainbow.
[00:17:08]  And by the way, they're already destroying the rainbow because they destroy everything they touch.
[00:17:13]  They never build anything.
[00:17:15]  They're parasites.
[00:17:16]  So the pride flag is now a triangle with a circle with all these sort of intersectional groups.
[00:17:24]  They're like, I thought it was about lesbian and gays.
[00:17:26]  Like, no, no, no.
[00:17:27]  Now it's lesbian, gays, bisexuals, queers, intersexual, asexual, plus.
[00:17:32]  You think I'm joking?
[00:17:34]  It will never stop.
[00:17:35]  Because as soon as we granted the premise that you could choose your gender, then they'll be like, well, maybe I'm kind of like pansexual.
[00:17:43]  No, no, no, you have a mental illness, dude.
[00:17:46]  Like, this is weaponized mental illness is what this is at this point.
[00:17:50]  That's not a joke.
[00:17:51]  And here's the thing.
[00:17:52]  I do have compassion for them.
[00:17:53]  I want them to get help.
[00:17:54]  Like, go get counseling.
[00:17:55]  Somebody can help you.
[00:17:57]  The biggest help is to break you free of that stronghold of Satan for Jesus Christ to speak into your life.
[00:18:03]  Number one thing.
[00:18:04]  But mental illness is not going to go away.
[00:18:07]  Why is that my problem?
[00:18:08]  And that's where all of a sudden you realize the T, an LGBT is tyranny.
[00:18:15]  It's not enough that they have to wear the dress.
[00:18:20]  They have to make you agree that they are what they say they are.
[00:18:25]  And you say, no, no, I can obviously see your man.
[00:18:28]  Like, you're not fooling anybody.
[00:18:29]  Like, no, no, no.
[00:18:31]  I am a woman.
[00:18:33]  First of all, you can't tell me what a woman is, but like, what is that?
[00:18:37]  By the way, praise God for Matt Walsh's brilliant What is a Woman documentary one of the most amazing things unbelievable and then here's the succession of events You must tolerate it Then you must accept it Then you must celebrate it and then you must participate it and then you must participate it with your children and we this is called tolerance if you are anything But this.
[00:19:03]  You are a hater.
[00:19:04]  You are a hate group.
[00:19:05]  Like, wait a second, I thought it was just about live and let live.
[00:19:08]  Because I bet most of you have the temperament of it's not my problem if you wear a dress and you're a 35-year-old in your living room.
[00:19:14]  That's not the problem.
[00:19:16]  These people are freaks.
[00:19:17]  They have to go into the society and go after the innocent to make them participate in their freakdom.
[00:19:24]  No, we are not going to put up with it.
[00:19:26]  Your neurotic behavior is not going to spread to the rest of society.
[00:19:32]  But they have to make you conform and then they'll call you all the words possible.
[00:19:37]  And this is the war on normal.
[00:19:39]  If you read their literature, by the way, the actual philosophical literature, they say the postmodernists say we must destroy the idea of the ordinary or the normal.
[00:19:47]  And I bet some of you are saying, hold on.
[00:19:50]  I know where this is headed.
[00:19:51]  Yep.
[00:19:52]  Minor attracted persons.
[00:19:56]  Yep.
[00:19:56]  Pedophiles.
[00:19:57]  100%.
[00:19:58]  It's already happening in California.
[00:20:01]  The next step, the next Overton window is: wait, if you can determine your own truth, your own gender, your own existence, your feelings matter more than objective reality, why should we punish or criminalize a 45-year-old man who wants to have sex with a 12-year-old?
[00:20:25]  The answer is: under their morality, there is no argument.
[00:20:29]  There is no argument.
[00:20:31]  This is where this is going very quickly.
[00:20:35]  And only the church can stop it.
[00:20:37]  So when absolute truth is removed, absurdity reigns.
[00:20:41]  And so, and then the homosexual community can't reproduce anything, so they have to recruit.
[00:20:47]  And this is the recruiting tool.
[00:20:49]  Yeah, they cannot reproduce, so they must recruit.
[00:20:51]  And again, it's not about, this is what's so important.
[00:20:56]  It's not about somebody's own personal whatever, what they do.
[00:21:02]  That's not why we're spending so much time on this topic.
[00:21:05]  They're evangelizing.
[00:21:07]  That's why it's an issue.
[00:21:09]  They're pushing it in schools.
[00:21:10]  They're pushing it on social media.
[00:21:12]  They're pushing it through mega corporations.
[00:21:14]  They're pushing it on Netflix specials.
[00:21:17]  That's why we are all saying, time out, no more.
[00:21:21]  We're not putting up with it.
[00:21:23]  And because there is this unease at the bottom of all liberalism is insecurity.
[00:21:33]  And this is why some people ask me, they say, Charlie, I just don't understand the mind of a leftist.
[00:21:39]  Because you're probably anchored in a community at church.
[00:21:42]  You have a good relationship at home.
[00:21:44]  You have a good relationship with your kids.
[00:21:46]  Maybe a stable job.
[00:21:47]  You are secure.
[00:21:50]  At the basis of all left-wing radicalism is insecurity.
[00:21:54]  And they have to take it out on you.
[00:21:57]  The way that they take it out on is making you conform.
[00:22:00]  And it is never enough.
[00:22:02]  There is nothing you can do to appease them.
[00:22:06]  Because the rules are constantly changing because they believe in perpetual revolution.
[00:22:11]  And so they must remove this idea of truth.
[00:22:15]  What is truth?
[00:22:16]  Truth is unchanging.
[00:22:18]  Truth is Jesus.
[00:22:19]  Truth is the logos.
[00:22:21]  Truth is ultimate reality.
[00:22:24]  Truth is the word of God.
[00:22:26]  And for those of you that are not believers tonight, we can at least believe that truth is God's creation.
[00:22:32]  We can at least agree at that.
[00:22:34]  The effects of God.
[00:22:36]  God created man and woman in the image and likeness of God, of the Creator.
[00:22:41]  And so this is getting in such a place, Steve, where I'm finally seeing people wake up and stand up, but it's not happening fast enough.
[00:22:52]  We are going to have hundreds of thousands of young people at this pace that will have massacred themselves and mutilated themselves.
[00:23:00]  You know, people laugh when I say this is the gayest generation in history.
[00:23:04]  It is.
[00:23:06]  40% of our young people are LGBTQIA plus.
[00:23:11]  Literally the gayest generation we've ever seen.
[00:23:14]  Let's just take this.
[00:23:15]  How are we going to reproduce the species?
[00:23:18]  Like, let's just start with that.
[00:23:20]  We're just going to kind of hope it happens.
[00:23:23]  This is a major problem, everybody.
[00:23:25]  And guess what?
[00:23:26]  It all is tied together.
[00:23:27]  Don't be shocked when all of a sudden you have that paired with the most depressed, suicidal, alcohol-addicted, drug-addicted generation in history.
[00:23:35]  You launch a war on truth, you are going to enter a form of hell.
[00:23:41]  Wow.
[00:23:42]  Wow.
[00:23:43]  Yep.
[00:23:46]  And so we got to get in the fight.
[00:23:48]  We have to get in the fight.
[00:23:49]  So what does that look like?
[00:23:50]  It's so like the number one marching order.
[00:23:52]  We have thousands.
[00:23:54]  By the way, 2,000 people here tonight or something, Steve.
[00:23:57]  When you encounter a lie, have the courage to at least say no.
[00:24:04]  This is your number one weapon.
[00:24:06]  People say, Charlie, we need to win the White House.
[00:24:09]  Forget all of that.
[00:24:09]  I agree.
[00:24:10]  We'll talk about that tonight, okay?
[00:24:11]  This is the most important thing.
[00:24:13]  Don't put up with it.
[00:24:14]  When someone says, well, my pronouns are like, dude, you're a dude.
[00:24:17]  Like, I'm not going to do this.
[00:24:19]  It's not going to happen.
[00:24:21]  Like, you're not going to force me to tell a lie.
[00:24:23]  Do not lie.
[00:24:25]  Do not, by the way, this is a good rule for life.
[00:24:26]  You will be a happier, freer person if you just don't lie.
[00:24:30]  Just like, where were you?
[00:24:32]  Were you really this?
[00:24:33]  Wherever it is, when you're asked the question, tell the truth.
[00:24:36]  The truth will set you free.
[00:24:38]  And so that's the number one thing.
[00:24:40]  And then, number two, understand that the other side uses name-calling as the weapon of intimidation.
[00:24:50]  They weaponize name-calling.
[00:24:52]  Do not care what they call you.
[00:24:53]  Come on.
[00:24:54]  It does not matter.
[00:24:55]  I am called every possible name in the book.
[00:24:59]  I don't care.
[00:25:01]  You know what I do care?
[00:25:02]  I care what God thinks of me.
[00:25:09]  I care about what my wife thinks of me.
[00:25:12]  I care about what the men in my life that are pastors that I consider advisors think of me.
[00:25:18]  If Pastor Steve texted me and said, Charlie, you're in error, I would listen in a second.
[00:25:21]  Say, okay.
[00:25:22]  If the Washington Post texts me and tell me I'm in error, I'm like, today's a great day.
[00:25:30]  This is great.
[00:25:34]  Who do you fear?
[00:25:37]  Come on.
[00:25:38]  I have learned the majority of the church truly does fear man.
[00:25:43]  Not this church.
[00:25:44]  This church is the exception.
[00:25:50]  And this is why so many people are without wisdom.
[00:25:56]  Because wisdom begins with the fear of the Lord.
[00:25:59]  Why are we in a country where the Biden administration says that men can give birth?
[00:26:06]  Not an exaggeration.
[00:26:07]  It's not a joke.
[00:26:08]  They call it birthing people, and the CBC has offered now evil, sinister medical guidelines that men can take certain drugs and lactate.
[00:26:19]  I appreciate those of you that are laughing because that's the only way that you could process this.
[00:26:24]  I totally get it, by the way.
[00:26:26]  I love it.
[00:26:27]  But come on.
[00:26:28]  Why would we want to?
[00:26:32]  Well, this is, I mean, I'm a man.
[00:26:34]  I don't want to have a baby.
[00:26:35]  I watch my wife.
[00:26:36]  I'm like, girl, go, go, girl.
[00:26:37]  But I'll be the cheerleader in that movie.
[00:26:41]  Well, and this is so smart.
[00:26:50]  When some freak man comes to one of our events and he's like, I'm a woman, and he wears a dress.
[00:26:55]  He's like, I want to be a woman.
[00:26:56]  I go, are you sure you want to be a woman?
[00:27:00]  You sure?
[00:27:04]  God made different brains.
[00:27:07]  There's a great study.
[00:27:10]  This is amazing.
[00:27:12]  Have you heard this?
[00:27:12]  No, but I'm loving it.
[00:27:17]  Where they put men in a room alone with no distractions.
[00:27:23]  And they asked the men after 30 minutes, what were you thinking of?
[00:27:29]  And for no surprise, they said, sports, sex, or nothing.
[00:27:36]  They did it with females.
[00:27:39]  And this is what's so interesting.
[00:27:42]  They said, what were you thinking?
[00:27:45]  They were reviewing conversations that they had in the last couple of days.
[00:27:52]  Let me be very clear.
[00:27:54]  No man in the history of the species has ever reviewed a conversation that we've had.
[00:28:09]  Oh, man.
[00:28:11]  I'm glad you're here.
[00:28:14]  God made our brains different.
[00:28:17]  Not just our bodies, not just our parts, our brains different.
[00:28:20]  And by the way, we both need each other.
[00:28:22]  We need strong men in America.
[00:28:24]  We need strong women in America.
[00:28:27]  And the trans movement does not believe that.
[00:28:31]  They believe womanhood is a costume.
[00:28:35]  They believe that womanhood is something you wear on Halloween.
[00:28:39]  Prove me wrong, by the way.
[00:28:41]  They think womanhood is just dressing in a dress and putting on makeup.
[00:28:45]  How insulting to women.
[00:28:48]  They think that being a man is talking in a deep voice and taking testosterone.
[00:28:54]  How insulting to men.
[00:28:57]  It's not a costume to wear.
[00:29:00]  And instead of arguing with reality, let's get really to the basis of this.
[00:29:04]  These people are mad at God.
[00:29:07]  That's what this is.
[00:29:08]  They hate God, yeah.
[00:29:10]  These people do not believe there is no God.
[00:29:12]  Some of them do.
[00:29:13]  These are the people that are scorning and screaming, why didn't you make me in a different body?
[00:29:18]  That wouldn't solve it.
[00:29:19]  You got a soul problem, man.
[00:29:22]  You're angry at the divine.
[00:29:24]  That's what's really going on here, is that you are too prideful.
[00:29:28]  And again, I will say narcissism.
[00:29:30]  The most narcissistic generation in history is also the most suicidal generation in history because they're thinking about themselves all the time.
[00:29:39]  I'm not happy.
[00:29:40]  I'm not this.
[00:29:41]  Yeah, it leads to people killing themselves in record numbers.
[00:29:44]  Suicide's a real thing.
[00:29:45]  Ever think that maybe we're telling young people they are the most important person ever, it leads to actually self-harm?
[00:29:51]  It's counterintuitive, isn't it?
[00:29:54]  And I'll prove it to you in a second.
[00:29:55]  Self-esteem is one of the worst things that we started teaching in our schools.
[00:29:58]  I'll prove it to you.
[00:30:01]  This is narcissism.
[00:30:03]  The trans movement is, everybody look at me.
[00:30:05]  Everybody pay attention to me.
[00:30:06]  Everybody give me what I want.
[00:30:08]  Instead, you should be like, yeah, you're not the most important person in the world.
[00:30:10]  God loves you.
[00:30:11]  He loves you so much that you got to improve yourself a lot.
[00:30:14]  Go on a journey like Abram in Genesis 12.
[00:30:17]  Go on an adventure.
[00:30:19]  And God is going to have all sorts of different unexpected miracles for you.
[00:30:22]  But first, you have to repent.
[00:30:24]  You have to understand that there is a God and you are not him.
[00:30:27]  And God designed you with a purpose.
[00:30:30]  So, but let me get to the self-esteem thing.

=== The School Shooter Psychologist (02:41) ===

[00:30:34]  So there was a very interesting psychologist recently who had an opportunity to talk to dozens of school shooters.
[00:30:40]  A very dark thing, right?
[00:30:42]  Like darkness beyond our imagination.
[00:30:44]  It's one thing to kill yourself, which again, I don't mean to minimize, but it's happening in a very huge way.
[00:30:50]  And if you're struggling with that, get help.
[00:30:52]  Ask this church for help.
[00:30:53]  There is help that awaits you, okay?
[00:30:55]  I've lost friends to suicide.
[00:30:56]  I've lost co-workers of suicide.
[00:30:58]  Real thing.
[00:30:59]  But even worse than killing yourself, imagine taking a weapon and going to a school and killing young kids.
[00:31:04]  It's like beyond anything we could even comprehend, right?
[00:31:07]  This psychologist came and he was blown away after talking to the 10th or the 20th or the 30th school shooter.
[00:31:14]  He said, every single one of these shooters does not have a guilt problem.
[00:31:20]  They're not like ridden with guilt.
[00:31:22]  They're not walking around with heaviness.
[00:31:26]  They said, they're all narcissists.
[00:31:30]  I want you to think about that.
[00:31:32]  That the people that are committing the worst crimes imaginable are the furthest, most radical, understandably radical extension of the self-esteem movement.
[00:31:42]  That they think they are so important that they want the whole world to look at their final crime.
[00:31:51]  Whoa.
[00:31:53]  Where instead of teaching self-esteem to young people, we should be teaching them self-control.
[00:31:59]  Come on.
[00:32:00]  When you tell an eighth grader, you're perfect the way you are.
[00:32:06]  I remember being taught that as a freshman in high school, and we had a stupid sign in our classroom.
[00:32:10]  You're perfect the way you are.
[00:32:12]  And I turned to my teacher.
[00:32:12]  I said, then why am I here?
[00:32:17]  Why am I doing my homework?
[00:32:19]  Why do my math problems?
[00:32:21]  Why improve if I'm perfect the way I am?
[00:32:24]  So then people will say, well, Charlie, what message would you prefer?
[00:32:27]  You're not all that you could yet be.
[00:32:30]  Come on.
[00:32:31]  That's a much better message for a young person.
[00:32:35]  That you got to put in the work.
[00:32:38]  Self-gratification is a deeper society.
[00:32:42]  Now, delayed self-gratification.
[00:32:44]  Preventing yourself from self-perpetual indulgence.
[00:32:47]  So there's a lot there, Steve, but it all comes back to biblical principles.
[00:32:51]  As we have discarded the Bible in Western society, we're in moral chaos.
[00:32:56]  And only the church, only Christians, only the truths of the Bible can get us back on track.
[00:33:01]  Charlie, would you say that even with movements like the climate change, the women's live movement way back in the day, that it was, it's all a precursor to dehumanize human beings.

=== Climate Change And Worship (12:52) ===

[00:33:16]  In other words, we don't matter.
[00:33:18]  Yeah, that's so smart, Steve.
[00:33:19]  So let me just figure, just kind of connect the dots.
[00:33:22]  I'm sure some of you have probably said, where are the feminists protesting female sports?
[00:33:27]  You're probably confused, right?
[00:33:30]  Let me explain it to you, and you've probably never heard this.
[00:33:33]  The reason why the feminists are so quiet and they're so confused is because at the root of feminism is they wanted men to actually act like women.
[00:33:46]  Their argument was that we want to get in the workforce.
[00:33:49]  We want to run the companies.
[00:33:50]  We want to freeze our eggs.
[00:33:52]  We want to become partners at the law firm.
[00:33:54]  So they're not that bothered that women want to take the next step to just say that they're men.
[00:34:00]  Feminism is not actually protecting God-granted femininity.
[00:34:04]  Feminism is teaching our young people to become more masculine.
[00:34:09]  So it makes sense.
[00:34:10]  Women's liberation is not about limeration.
[00:34:13]  I just have to say, we have a huge problem in this country of 32-year-old college-educated young women with cats.
[00:34:21]  It's like a huge problem.
[00:34:24]  With cats?
[00:34:26]  Cats.
[00:34:26]  C-A-T.
[00:34:27]  Yeah.
[00:34:28]  Yeah, cats.
[00:34:29]  Very cats.
[00:34:34]  I have no moral problem against cats.
[00:34:38]  But obviously.
[00:34:42]  But they have the degrees.
[00:34:45]  They're earning a lot of money.
[00:34:46]  Why are they so miserable?
[00:34:48]  For some of them, they can make it work.
[00:34:50]  For a vast majority of them, it's because they said no to the biological push that God put in them.
[00:34:58]  Find a partner and have kids.
[00:35:00]  And we wonder why there's like this tyranny of single, childless, secular women in our urban metropolitan areas.
[00:35:09]  Like, I'm so angry.
[00:35:10]  We know.
[00:35:13]  It's not hard to determine.
[00:35:15]  We know why.
[00:35:18]  It's because you have bought into the lie that becoming a partner at a law firm or becoming a banker at Goldman Sachs and having a bunch of cats or dogs or whatever is going to bring you fulfillment.
[00:35:33]  And then they get really bitter because all of a sudden they realize that their clock is running out.
[00:35:38]  32, 33, 34.
[00:35:39]  And they're like, I have to find somebody to marry in a hurry.
[00:35:42]  And men are like, I don't want to marry you.
[00:35:43]  Like, holy mother.
[00:35:55]  They're like, why?
[00:35:59]  So the men are like, forget it.
[00:36:00]  I'm going to go to the 23-year-old beautiful Christian girl at the local church who loves the word.
[00:36:07]  I'm not going to go marry the cat lady.
[00:36:11]  And yeah, she has a bunch of tokens and she has degrees from every university.
[00:36:17]  And our politics is largely being driven by these people on the American left.
[00:36:23]  And they're perpetually angry.
[00:36:24]  And in some ways, I have sympathy for them.
[00:36:26]  I really, I mean this like non-sarcastic.
[00:36:28]  I have sympathy.
[00:36:29]  And it's kind of similar to the trans thing.
[00:36:30]  Like once their clock runs out, there's nothing we could do for them, right?
[00:36:34]  But it's important for the young ladies in the audience, the young ladies that are listening to this and the media that will definitely write this up.
[00:36:40]  Like don't believe that lie.
[00:36:41]  The good ones do run out.
[00:36:44]  Like find a good man early and have a family.
[00:36:47]  It's way more fulfilling than becoming a partner at some law firm.
[00:36:51]  It's way better.
[00:36:53]  It's better for you.
[00:36:54]  It's better for the kingdom.
[00:36:56]  It's better for your soul.
[00:36:57]  It's better for your country.
[00:36:58]  It's better for everybody.
[00:37:00]  And yet we've told young women not to do that.
[00:37:02]  So to answer your question, is it about dehumanizing?
[00:37:05]  Of course it is.
[00:37:06]  Our birth rates are going down in this country.
[00:37:09]  We're wondering why we're so unhappy.
[00:37:10]  I have a one-year-old daughter.
[00:37:11]  It's the best thing ever.
[00:37:13]  Ever.
[00:37:14]  Don't believe that lie.
[00:37:16]  Now, I have these like fake macho men sometimes that come into my comments on Instagram.
[00:37:22]  And I won't say any names, but like they have like big Instagram followers.
[00:37:25]  And they're like late 40s, early 50s.
[00:37:27]  They're like, Charlie, stop telling young men to get married.
[00:37:29]  You could be happy by sleeping around.
[00:37:32]  And look, I don't think they're happy.
[00:37:34]  I'm joyful they're not, you know, but I'll say this.
[00:37:36]  I have something that if you continue your current life's course and you just kind of like sleep around and you never have kids or get married, I have something you're not.
[00:37:44]  Like my genes are going to continue on.
[00:37:47]  And you're not.
[00:37:49]  And I'm going to be able to say I did something hard that wasn't just always about myself.
[00:37:54]  You want to stop being a narcissist?
[00:37:55]  Have a kid.
[00:37:59]  Humbles you really quick.
[00:38:00]  Very quick.
[00:38:03]  And get married.
[00:38:04]  Get married, then have a kid.
[00:38:06]  Let's make sure we get the order.
[00:38:07]  You got to put a ring on it.
[00:38:08]  Got to put a ring on it.
[00:38:09]  Here's what you will learn.
[00:38:11]  And it's so against what the culture says.
[00:38:12]  The beautiful things, the deep things, and the worthwhile things take work, commitment, and sacrifice.
[00:38:18]  Come on.
[00:38:20]  There is no easy way to it.
[00:38:21]  Our society is like, oh, you can order a package easily on Amazon or an easy hit of this drug.
[00:38:27]  Reject that in your life.
[00:38:28]  The deep things, the beautiful things, the worthwhile things take sacrifice and take work.
[00:38:33]  The climate thing is interesting.
[00:38:34]  I know we don't, we want to get to questions here in a second, which I can't wait to talk to you guys and hear from your questions.
[00:38:42]  These are pagan earth worshipers is what the climate thing is.
[00:38:45]  This is no different than the Egyptians of the Pharaoh that God had his chosen people delivered from in Exodus.
[00:38:55]  No different.
[00:38:56]  They worshiped the Nile River.
[00:38:58]  Our people worshiped some rock or whatever.
[00:39:02]  The Bible was written as a refutation of pagan earth-worshiping civilization, as a direct refutation.
[00:39:12]  And so they are inherently a climate cult of death.
[00:39:17]  You know, I joke around.
[00:39:18]  I don't know who talks more about the end times now.
[00:39:22]  Like eschatological Christians or Greta Thunberg?
[00:39:28]  Like, I hear it a lot.
[00:39:29]  Charlie, Jesus is coming next Thursday.
[00:39:31]  The world is going to end.
[00:39:32]  And then I spend time around some environmentalists.
[00:39:35]  They're like, the world's going to end in 10 years.
[00:39:37]  I'm like, you're talking like an end times pastor, man.
[00:39:41]  They just think it's going to be the weather.
[00:39:43]  That's why.
[00:39:43]  It's like, the weather, it's going to do it.
[00:39:46]  Yeah, I don't think so.
[00:39:47]  Every prediction you've ever made is wrong.
[00:39:49]  Every solution you have is about us getting less freedom.
[00:39:52]  So let me make that clear.
[00:39:54]  Every prediction they've made is wrong, and every solution that they put forward is less freedom for us.
[00:39:58]  Yeah, not buying it.
[00:39:59]  Get out of my face.
[00:40:00]  Get out of our politics.
[00:40:01]  Like, everything you've told me is wrong.
[00:40:05]  And so it's about dehumanization because, Steve, and we'll close with this, because it ties the trans thing, the abortion thing.
[00:40:13]  It goes back to, you know, Matt Welsh had the question, what is a woman?
[00:40:17]  The more important question, I could do a documentary around this.
[00:40:19]  I want to do a series of what is, because I think Matt Welsh is onto something so unbelievably deep, which is they can't even define the terms they use all the time.
[00:40:28]  So I could do like these 10 to 15 minute docuseries, what is democracy, what is racism, the most important one, what is a human being?
[00:40:38]  And they can't answer that question.
[00:40:40]  Because if they're honest, they will say a human being is nothing more than an accident of millions of years of Darwinian evolution and nothing more than an evolved clump of cells.
[00:40:51]  The West was built and America was founded on the truth that rejects that.
[00:40:55]  That a human being is made in the image of God with a soul.
[00:41:00]  That's a big difference.
[00:41:02]  Because if you believe that, that means every human being deserves protection.
[00:41:07]  Every human being has dignity.
[00:41:09]  They believe every human being is expendable for the ultimate purpose of the state.
[00:41:14]  That it's nothing more than, oh, a couple million people here, rounding error.
[00:41:17]  We believe that every human life is loved by the Lord.
[00:41:21]  Whoa, that's totally different.
[00:41:23]  That's why we get upset when we hear that New Mexico is the late-term abortion capital of America.
[00:41:28]  That's when we get upset when we hear that kids are castrating themselves.
[00:41:32]  We get angry.
[00:41:33]  Because those are image bearers, Steve.
[00:41:35]  Those are people we want to spend eternity with, not just some sort of inconvenience to your power grab.
[00:41:42]  What is a human being is the most important question that divides America today.
[00:41:49]  We believe human beings have souls and they do not.
[00:41:52]  Want to do some questions?
[00:41:53]  Yeah, we can do questions.
[00:41:55]  I have a follow-up as they get ready for that.
[00:41:58]  You know, Charlie, do you think...
[00:42:00]  You guys can start lining up and we'll do that.
[00:42:03]  And by the way, questions, not speeches.
[00:42:04]  We'll get to that in a second.
[00:42:05]  Yeah, and I'm going to monitor that.
[00:42:08]  Do you believe that one of the reasons the church hasn't stood and fought harder maybe is because we really don't know the truth.
[00:42:17]  We know some things, it's like climate change.
[00:42:20]  You know, I went back and read Genesis 1, and part of climate change is that we're ruining the earth.
[00:42:27]  It's called anthropogenic for a reason, human cost.
[00:42:31]  Right, so we ruin the earth, right?
[00:42:33]  God said, be fruitful and multiply.
[00:42:35]  Is so deep, Steve, what you're getting onto here, which is if you take the climate cult at face value, they believe we human beings are the pollutants.
[00:42:48]  That nature is perfect and that we are harming nature.
[00:42:54]  So, this is dumb for a couple of reasons.
[00:42:58]  For any of you that have hunted or spent time in the wild, you know that nature is anything but moral.
[00:43:06]  Nature is harsh.
[00:43:08]  Now, the effects of God's creation is really beautiful to look at in splendor or wonder until you don't have air conditioning until it gets to be negative 20.
[00:43:22]  It's easy to be an earth worshiper in perfectly conditioned apartments at the University of New Mexico.
[00:43:32]  Super easy.
[00:43:33]  Why don't you go worship the earth?
[00:43:35]  I'll pick a zip.
[00:43:36]  I'll pick a latitude and longitude.
[00:43:38]  Tell me how long you last.
[00:43:40]  Now, maybe they'll be able to make it, but I don't think they're going to be bowing down to the trees and the rivers and the rocks after a week.
[00:43:50]  The Bible changed everything because the Bible said that God was not in nature, God was above nature.
[00:43:58]  And even more specifically, we're above nature and God is above us.
[00:44:01]  A hierarchy, moral hierarchy of nature, man, God, nature, man, God.
[00:44:08]  Our whole civilization was built on this.
[00:44:10]  That nature is there for us.
[00:44:13]  Now, we should conserve it.
[00:44:16]  We should understand it, but you should never worship it.
[00:44:20]  You should never.
[00:44:22]  That is, it happens very quickly, by the way.
[00:44:25]  More so than you could believe.
[00:44:26]  And I'll prove it to you before we get to the questions.
[00:44:29]  What's happening in Maui is unacceptable in this country and is ignored by the media in a weird way, isn't it?
[00:44:36]  We don't know how many, there could be a thousand people dead and like nobody cares.
[00:44:41]  It's really strange.
[00:44:43]  The Maui director of water, whatever title he had, you see this video?
[00:44:48]  And I'll prove to you how paganism, how deadly paganism is.
[00:44:52]  He's like, well, we're very careful how we deal with water here because in Hawaiian culture, water is worshipped.
[00:45:01]  Whoa, hold on.
[00:45:03]  You are now distributing water based on the holiness of H2O?
[00:45:09]  Like, people's houses are burning.
[00:45:12]  And you're like, we have to be careful because native Hawaiians have a different, you know, what the Christian thing is.
[00:45:17]  God gave us water to save human beings' lives.
[00:45:20]  Distribute as much as possible.
[00:45:24]  That is paganism versus Christianity.
[00:45:27]  Christianity is use all the water you can if it saves one life if it saves a single life because we do not worship the water we were something way more infinitely amazing than the water and tragically it has now cost people's lives in Hawaii Wokeism, paganism, bad theology, bad morals will result in people dead, but they don't care because people are rounding errors.
[00:45:56]  This is why how Stalin justified his 50 million people he killed.
[00:46:00]  House Mao justified the 40 million people he killed.
[00:46:04]  Because people are not souls.
[00:46:06]  They're atoms.

=== Atoms Not Souls (06:56) ===

[00:46:08]  They're speed bumps.
[00:46:10]  All on the way to their ultimate power grab.
[00:46:14]  There it is.
[00:46:16]  You know, Romans 1, Romans 1 talks about all of this and then ends up talking about homosexuality.
[00:46:23]  And isn't it interesting?
[00:46:24]  They thought themselves to be wise.
[00:46:26]  They became fools.
[00:46:27]  They worship the creation instead of the creator who is blessed forever.
[00:46:31]  Isn't that amazing?
[00:46:32]  It's so clear.
[00:46:33]  And yet we see people do it.
[00:46:34]  You know, I call them, you know, tree huggers and frog lickers here.
[00:46:39]  I love that.
[00:46:40]  Because I'm so great, by the way.
[00:46:42]  I'm like, now we have light pollution.
[00:46:44]  There's too much light.
[00:46:46]  And, you know, now there's too much light because of Christians.
[00:46:50]  I mean, it's so absurd.
[00:46:54]  And I always tell people, I'm not that smart, but I'm smart enough not to believe that dumb stuff.
[00:46:59]  That's just dumb.
[00:47:00]  And we need to, don't you think we need to be bold enough just to never be ashamed of the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ?
[00:47:08]  Yes.
[00:47:12]  Be strong and courageous.
[00:47:14]  Be strong and courageous.
[00:47:16]  You will have to face the Almighty one day.
[00:47:19]  That scares me a lot more than the New York Times.
[00:47:22]  I agree.
[00:47:22]  Let's do the question right here.
[00:47:24]  Well, hi, Charlie.
[00:47:25]  Hi, Pastor Skeen.
[00:47:28]  I am so grateful that you are willing to stand on the front lines of insanity in this world.
[00:47:32]  Thank you.
[00:47:33]  Thank you.
[00:47:35]  So I just want to let you know, I work with Karenette here in Albuquerque, and we are the life-affirming Christian Christ-Centered Organization.
[00:47:43]  I also appreciate what you do in the community and talking to people.
[00:47:46]  What I want to ask you is, with our government so crazy, and we are so aware of what's actually happening, why are we still having conversations about this government?
[00:47:59]  Why are they not out of office?
[00:48:01]  Why are we not taking them down in droves?
[00:48:05]  Yeah.
[00:48:05]  Look, I mean, if you cannot build a government on truth, you must build a government on corruption.
[00:48:15]  That is an iron law of politics.
[00:48:18]  This is an unbelievably corrupt state, the way you guys do your elections in this state.
[00:48:22]  It's unbelievably corrupt.
[00:48:25]  I truly believe a majority of people of this beautiful state do not agree with what this government is doing.
[00:48:30]  I believe that at my core.
[00:48:32]  I really do.
[00:48:36]  So you have to fight.
[00:48:37]  I know there's some people here tonight doing ballot referendums.
[00:48:40]  Win what you can.
[00:48:41]  I'm a big fan of the ballot referendum stuff.
[00:48:43]  Thank you guys for that.
[00:48:45]  You can't give up.
[00:48:46]  School boards, county commissioners, off-election races, and you're running for office, good.
[00:48:51]  And you know what?
[00:48:52]  If you lose, run again.
[00:48:53]  And the church should be involved.
[00:48:54]  And if you lose, run again.
[00:48:56]  Be a non-stop fighter for liberty.
[00:48:58]  And I'm telling you, you will break through.
[00:49:01]  You will build consensus.
[00:49:03]  And let me just give you a little bit of hope.
[00:49:06]  The community that is most open to move from the left, if they're presented, is the Hispanic community when it comes to this idea of white liberalism.
[00:49:21]  White, woke Northeastern liberalism is being imperialistically put into these Hispanic communities.
[00:49:28]  I've seen it happen.
[00:49:30]  If you tell a rank-and-file Hispanic mother that they're going to teach your son that he can become a woman, that dog does not hunt in most Hispanic communities in New Mexico.
[00:49:43]  It does not.
[00:49:45]  So, you have to proclaim it.
[00:49:47]  You have to own it.
[00:49:47]  The trans agenda is deeply unpopular in the black community and the Hispanic community.
[00:49:52]  So, don't give up and don't give in.
[00:49:54]  God bless you.
[00:49:54]  Thank you.
[00:49:57]  Thank you.
[00:49:59]  I wrote a list of what we, the people, want.
[00:50:03]  What do we, the people, want?
[00:50:05]  For example, we want jobs, not mobs.
[00:50:10]  We want educators, not indoctrinators.
[00:50:14]  We want flag waivers, not flag desecrators.
[00:50:19]  We want workers, not freeloaders.
[00:50:23]  We want journalists, not propagandists.
[00:50:27]  There's 25 that I have, but this gentleman, I gave him the list of 25.
[00:50:33]  He's going to give them to you.
[00:50:34]  You're hired.
[00:50:35]  Thanks so much.
[00:50:41]  That was the best non-question I've received at an event in quite some time.
[00:50:45]  Go ahead.
[00:50:47]  Thank you for being here.
[00:50:49]  I'd like to know your views on the mask mandate coming back this fall.
[00:50:56]  Is it coming back?
[00:50:59]  Not here.
[00:50:59]  It won't come back here.
[00:51:02]  And your thoughts, Pastor Steve, you're going to fight it.
[00:51:06]  It won't be a fight.
[00:51:07]  We're just not going to do it.
[00:51:08]  This is.
[00:51:11]  Oh, it's coming.
[00:51:13]  You know, on our show, our podcast, which we're going to have something up here.
[00:51:18]  So if you guys aren't subscribed, we'd love to have you do that.
[00:51:21]  We talk about how they're going to try something for 2024 that will be similar to 2020.
[00:51:26]  Well, why won't they just do a repeat?
[00:51:28]  Just bring COVID back, baby.
[00:51:31]  I know this sounds strange, but I actually hope they bring back the mask because I don't think that is going to resonate with most people.
[00:51:43]  I really don't.
[00:51:44]  I mean, I never went along with that crap ever, right?
[00:51:48]  But just as another symbol, Aristotle famously said that tyrants want people to be unfamiliar with one another.
[00:51:56]  They want people to be strangers.
[00:51:58]  Masks are dehumanizing.
[00:52:02]  And by the way, why do we need masks if the vaccine was 100% safe and effective?
[00:52:09]  Like, I thought this vaccine was the greatest thing ever.
[00:52:11]  Thank you for your question.
[00:52:12]  By the way, if you guys would follow the QR code, oh, it just disappeared.
[00:52:16]  It was on.
[00:52:17]  We'll do it at the end, or you could do it now.
[00:52:19]  Every single phone has a podcast app.
[00:52:21]  It blesses us significantly.
[00:52:23]  And once you get to the page, you press the plus sign.
[00:52:26]  It's a way to help us from cancellation.
[00:52:28]  All the tech oligarchs are trying to come after us.
[00:52:30]  How many listen to our show?
[00:52:32]  Anyone listen to our?
[00:52:32]  Oh, that blesses us so much.
[00:52:34]  So you guys are already on board.
[00:52:36]  But if you're not, thank you, thank you, thank you.
[00:52:38]  We'll keep that up for a little bit.
[00:52:39]  And thank you, Steve, for letting me.
[00:52:40]  Let me follow up with that.
[00:52:41]  What?
[00:52:42]  What?
[00:52:42]  Okay.
[00:52:43]  Every study I've read said that none of that worked.
[00:52:47]  Masks didn't work.
[00:52:48]  Social distancing, we know with Fauci was a joke.
[00:52:50]  They just made up a number.
[00:52:53]  And so, are the American people that dumb, or you think we're that smart now to say, we know it didn't work.
[00:53:00]  Studies have proven it didn't work.
[00:53:02]  So, Steve, this is a really interesting question.

=== Wanting To Be Slaves (03:35) ===

[00:53:05]  What do the scriptures tell us about human nature?
[00:53:09]  Do human beings want to be free?
[00:53:18]  Yes.
[00:53:19]  How about raise your hand if it's yes?
[00:53:21]  Okay, raise your hand if it's no.
[00:53:24]  Yeah, it's about 50-50.
[00:53:26]  So let's take the Jewish people, the Hebrews.
[00:53:29]  They see 10 miracles.
[00:53:32]  The Red Sea is parted.
[00:53:34]  They are delivered from serfdom.
[00:53:37]  Within days, Steve.
[00:53:39]  Days.
[00:53:40]  They wanted to go back.
[00:53:41]  No, it's worse than getting back.
[00:53:42]  It's worse than that.
[00:53:43]  They say, hold on a second.
[00:53:45]  Who's this Moses guy?
[00:53:48]  Who's this guy?
[00:53:50]  And they start complaining.
[00:53:51]  They're very good at complaining, the Hebrews, like the best.
[00:53:54]  The entire Numbers 11 is just them complaining.
[00:53:58]  So let's talk about Numbers 11, which, by the way, the actual title of the book of Numbers is in the wilderness.
[00:54:02]  It's not Numbers.
[00:54:04]  So one of my life's goals is to get the Book of Numbers named accurately because it sounds like a math book, and I think Christians don't read it because of that.
[00:54:12]  In the wilderness, 11.
[00:54:14]  It's true, the actual Hebrew is in the wilderness.
[00:54:18]  They say this.
[00:54:19]  You could fact-check me in the original Hebrew.
[00:54:22]  They say, we want to go back to Egypt, despite the fact it says that God blew quail off course and manna from heaven, and they needed or wanted for nothing.
[00:54:30]  And they said, in Egypt, we had leeks, cucumbers, melons, and meat.
[00:54:38]  And the best verse, I think, in the entire book of Numbers is they said, and it was all free.
[00:54:49]  And you're like, whoa, you were a slave.
[00:54:52]  They said, well, we didn't have to pay for it.
[00:54:57]  God delivered his people.
[00:55:00]  They saw the most unbelievable things you could see.
[00:55:03]  And here they are in the wilderness, needed or wanting for nothing, not having cucumbers, leeks, melons, and meat.
[00:55:10]  And they say, we want to be slaves.
[00:55:14]  I'll prove it to you further.
[00:55:15]  Why?
[00:55:17]  Why was it that God had to have the entire generation die off except Joshua before they were able to enter the land of Canaan?
[00:55:26]  Because that generation did not want freedom.
[00:55:30]  They didn't.
[00:55:32]  Freedom is a value.
[00:55:34]  Come on.
[00:55:35]  If you do not teach it, people do not want it.
[00:55:38]  I'll prove it to you even further.
[00:55:40]  One of the most powerful interviews I've ever had is with Yeonmi Park, a North Korean dissident in America.
[00:55:45]  And I said, Yeonmi, she grew up in North Korea, and she has an unbelievable window into the psychology of totalitarianism and the psychology of people.
[00:55:53]  She said, Do people want to be naturally free?
[00:55:55]  Grew up in North Korea.
[00:55:56]  She said, We don't have a word for it.
[00:56:00]  She said, We don't think in totalitarian countries.
[00:56:02]  Free, we just do what we're told.
[00:56:04]  We obey.
[00:56:06]  Now, once presented, and once you have a memory of it, some people want to be free.
[00:56:12]  But left to our own pattern, our own broken, sinful nature, we do not want to be free.
[00:56:19]  We want to be taken care of.
[00:56:22]  We're naturally lazy, Steve.
[00:56:23]  We would rather go back to Egypt and have cucumbers, leeks, melons, and meat.
[00:56:29]  Take us back to slavery instead of us living freely in the wilderness.
[00:56:36]  That's what happens when you don't teach freedom as a value to your young people.

=== Teaching Freedom As Value (15:36) ===

[00:56:40]  So, to answer your question, Steve, are the American people stupid when it comes to masks?
[00:56:51]  They're not wise because they're well, they're not wise because they have no wisdom, but they're human.
[00:56:58]  We haven't taught freedom as a value.
[00:57:00]  We have half the country on government benefits.
[00:57:03]  We have a country looking for nothing for something.
[00:57:05]  They want somebody else to give it to them.
[00:57:08]  We have a country that constantly wants somebody else to make their life easier.
[00:57:14]  Why should we be shocked when all of a sudden the government tells them to go put a cloth mask on so it's going to make them safe?
[00:57:20]  Which is what is so ironic about the whole thing.
[00:57:23]  This is a group of people so afraid of death that they'll never actually live.
[00:57:29]  That's so good.
[00:57:36]  Good, good stuff.
[00:57:37]  My question revolves around the gender debate.
[00:57:41]  Proverbs chapter 26 says, do not answer the foolish arguments of fools or you'll become foolish as they are.
[00:57:49]  We know you go all around the country debating college students.
[00:57:57]  They won't listen.
[00:57:58]  They don't care about biology and science.
[00:58:01]  What they say is it's a social construct.
[00:58:05]  And so how do you reason with a fool when they don't care about the science, they just care about the social construct, and that's what's important to them.
[00:58:15]  That's why I say there are zero genders.
[00:58:18]  Because in some sense, I do agree they've created a social construct that's completely irrelevant.
[00:58:23]  Now, if we all of a sudden want people to fill out on their citizenship papers, you know, on a passport application, you know, how do you like, what food preferences you have, which is as important to me as your gender, because gender means nothing to me.
[00:58:36]  It basically tells me your horoscope.
[00:58:39]  Then fine.
[00:58:40]  But I will say this.
[00:58:42]  There are other verses that will say that you must speak the truth in all places.
[00:58:46]  Ephesians 5, 2, you must reveal the deeds of darkness.
[00:58:50]  You must expose them.
[00:58:52]  And I feel that's my life's calling.
[00:58:54]  One of my life's calling is to go to the darkest places that humanity has, college campuses, and to fight for righteousness and goodness.
[00:59:04]  And I'll prove it to you by what Christ told us.
[00:59:09]  What Jesus told us is to be salt and light.
[00:59:12]  Now we hear that, but we don't think deeply about what it means.
[00:59:14]  What does salt and light have in common?
[00:59:17]  They change the environment that they come in contact with.
[00:59:21]  Light brightens up a dark place, and salt will make something saltier.
[00:59:25]  College campuses are very dark places.
[00:59:28]  In some ways, I'm almost like a cultural missionary.
[00:59:31]  Now, you are right about the radicals, but I'm going to give you a little bit of hope.
[00:59:36]  Gen Z boys are the most conservative generation of boys since 1975.
[00:59:46]  And I see these young boys, the most based, the most outspoken activists that I have ever come across are 16, 17, 18-year-old young men.
[00:59:58]  And I'm going to tell you why.
[01:00:01]  They are looking for anything that says it's okay to be a man.
[01:00:06]  Come on.
[01:00:07]  Anything.
[01:00:10]  Our culture is so feminine.
[01:00:13]  It's toxically feminine, honestly.
[01:00:17]  That we are creating.
[01:00:18]  And by the way, the women are the ones that agree the most when I say it.
[01:00:22]  What's so funny?
[01:00:23]  Because they know that young boys are going to lead, I think, one of the most fun, exciting, rebellious counter-revolutions in American history against all of this woke nonsense.
[01:00:42]  And you see it with Joe Rogan's podcast, with the ascendants of Jordan Peterson, of Peter Attia, Andrew Tate, who's a mixed bag, but he says some good things.
[01:00:52]  But young boys are like, finally, somebody is telling me that having a high testosterone rate and not dressing like a metrosexual and actually lifting weights and embracing this idea of going on an adventure is a healthy and a good thing.
[01:01:14]  So there's some hope.
[01:01:15]  And I'll tell you another piece of hope.
[01:01:16]  This happened at the University of New Mexico despite all the nonsense they threw at us.
[01:01:23]  Every single campus tour I have done in the last 12 months, except one, which was intentionally derailed by the administration at UC Santa Davis, that's the only one, we could not find rooms big enough to fit all the students that wanted to attend our on-campus events.
[01:01:38]  Every single one.
[01:01:40]  We have waiting lists of students that want to come.
[01:01:43]  So yes, the radicals, but there is this amazing movable middle.
[01:01:48]  And they see the disaster of wokeism.
[01:01:52]  I am not very optimistic politically right now.
[01:01:55]  I'm kind of in the middle.
[01:01:56]  I'm unbelievably optimistic culturally.
[01:01:59]  There is a freight train coming for the woke.
[01:02:02]  There is something happening.
[01:02:02]  I'm telling you, I see it.
[01:02:04]  It's happening on social media.
[01:02:06]  It's happening on TikTok.
[01:02:08]  It's happening on Instagram.
[01:02:10]  These people have no arguments.
[01:02:11]  They can't defend themselves.
[01:02:13]  And do not be shocked.
[01:02:15]  This is why Turning Point USA, in my opinion, is the most important organization in America.
[01:02:18]  Is that if we can make this happen or two or three years and Gen Z becomes conservative, every one of their models is wrong.
[01:02:26]  This will get so out of control.
[01:02:28]  So there is hope, everybody.
[01:02:30]  The reinforcements are coming.
[01:02:32]  And so I'm going to keep on talking to the fools.
[01:02:38]  Charlie, this is an online question from a Brianna.
[01:02:42]  Would you ever consider running for political office?
[01:02:45]  I consider that a compliment.
[01:02:46]  I hope she means that positively.
[01:02:48]  Look, not in the immediate term in any way, shape, or form.
[01:02:52]  And I'm going to tell you why.
[01:02:53]  People say, Charlie, you're going to run for Senate of Arizona.
[01:02:55]  I'm like, oh, my goodness, no way.
[01:02:57]  You're going to run for governor, like Congress, and all that.
[01:02:59]  I say, look, I meet a lot of politicians.
[01:03:01]  Most are not happy in their work.
[01:03:03]  I am so fulfilled.
[01:03:04]  I am the happiest person you'll meet.
[01:03:06]  I get to speak the truth every single day.
[01:03:07]  I am so fulfilled, so joyful.
[01:03:10]  I get to spend time with my family.
[01:03:12]  I hate Washington, D.C.
[01:03:14]  I actually hate government in general.
[01:03:16]  I just do.
[01:03:17]  I just don't like it.
[01:03:19]  But honestly, let's think about it.
[01:03:20]  Do I make a bigger impact by being a single vote in the U.S. Senate or whatever?
[01:03:26]  Or preaching or teaching to millions of young people every single week, rising up a new generation, being able to speak my mind, telling the church to stand, and having no restraints whatsoever of what I'm able to say.
[01:03:42]  Instead, I want to help you guys run for office and support that next generation and multiply that.
[01:03:48]  And I am comfortable and anchored, and I feel so called of where I am right now.
[01:03:56]  And I believe that the more of the influence actually today is outside of politics than actually in those governmental positions.
[01:04:09]  Thank you.
[01:04:09]  So I am stepping, I stepped down from Blexit because I had to, and Lexit as well.
[01:04:16]  I will have to.
[01:04:16]  So those roles will need to be filled in New Mexico.
[01:04:19]  But so we talked about the parallels of history a while ago.
[01:04:26]  During Nazi Germany, the Nuremberg trials, they tried to figure out how to hold them accountable because they changed their constitution, right?
[01:04:34]  And they said it was a higher law that governed all societies.
[01:04:39]  And the same thing was used, the word of God was used, that higher law during our revolution.
[01:04:44]  So how would we today, in a sense, use the word of God to hold a lot of these politicians accountable?
[01:04:54]  Because I think that's what's on a lot of people's minds is they're getting away with it and they're doing it again.
[01:05:00]  So how can we immediately, in a sense, hold them accountable with the word of God?
[01:05:05]  It's a great question.
[01:05:06]  People, I'm curious.
[01:05:09]  How many of you would vote for Trump as the nominee today?
[01:05:12]  Raise your hand.
[01:05:13]  Okay.
[01:05:14]  Yeah, that proves my point.
[01:05:16]  So I get the question all the time.
[01:05:18]  Why?
[01:05:18]  Charlie, he's the worst person ever.
[01:05:20]  He's all this sort of stuff and all this.
[01:05:23]  And that's not true.
[01:05:24]  And I'm a friend of his.
[01:05:25]  I'm a defender of his.
[01:05:26]  But you know why I think so many hands went up?
[01:05:28]  Because I bet some people's hands went up and you're probably annoyed with Trump.
[01:05:31]  But your hands still went up.
[01:05:33]  And I want to compliment you because you're telling me how smart you are.
[01:05:37]  You see a much bigger game at play here than Donald J. Trump.
[01:05:42]  You're seeing something that's way bigger than Trump.
[01:05:46]  He just happens to be the temporary player in that.
[01:05:49]  Because what you are seeing is an unprecedented persecution of an innocent man, a political dissident and a former president by an unelected administrative state coming after the entire decent half of the country.
[01:06:02]  And we are supporting Trump because we are putting our middle finger towards you and say, no, we're not going to put up with that.
[01:06:07]  You are not going to shred our Constitution.
[01:06:10]  You are not going to indict an innocent man.
[01:06:12]  You are not going to remove him from our ballot.
[01:06:14]  And yes, I will support the man that enrages you so much.
[01:06:18]  I support him more because of it.
[01:06:21]  That's why we support Donald Trump.
[01:06:33]  And, you know, I'll get to the question in a second, but I decided to say.
[01:06:38]  He's preaching right now, though.
[01:06:39]  You got to admit.
[01:06:40]  He's preaching good.
[01:06:42]  And it's not about his personality.
[01:06:44]  It's not about all that stuff.
[01:06:46]  Do you love the Constitution?
[01:06:48]  That's what's on the ballot.
[01:06:51]  The United States Constitution is on the ballot, everybody.
[01:06:57]  The promise of our founders is on the ballot.
[01:07:02]  What every single one of our forefathers fought for is on the ballot.
[01:07:08]  This is so much bigger than his tweets.
[01:07:12]  And whether or not you agree with how he does stuff, if we allow this to happen, if we roll our eyes, we say, oh, well, maybe we want a candidate who doesn't have as much baggage or whatever nonsense these people are peddling.
[01:07:25]  I'm not even saying you have to love the guy.
[01:07:27]  You can hate him.
[01:07:28]  I don't care.
[01:07:29]  You have to understand that he is a symbol now.
[01:07:33]  He's a symbol.
[01:07:34]  He's a symbol for every single one of you that have been accused of something you did not do.
[01:07:40]  He's a symbol for every single one of you that have lost your job unjustly because of your views.
[01:07:44]  He's a symbol for every single one of you that have been persecuted by government.
[01:07:48]  I don't care if you hate him.
[01:07:51]  I ask you to love the Constitution more than you hate Donald Trump.
[01:07:54]  That's all I'm saying.
[01:08:00]  And if we do our job in 2024, if we do our job, we need to tell voters across the country and say this is a choice election.
[01:08:10]  The election is simple.
[01:08:11]  Do you believe of what Thomas Jefferson laid out in the Declaration of Independence?
[01:08:16]  One of the courses in events necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands that have tied them with another.
[01:08:21]  Do you believe that our founding fathers were right?
[01:08:25]  Or do you want, if these people win in 2024, you will be voting for a new founding?
[01:08:32]  That's what this is.
[01:08:33]  They're trying to re-found the country.
[01:08:37]  That's what's really going on here.
[01:08:40]  Hey, Charlie.
[01:08:41]  God gave me a vision to build an organization and a school called Barn Burners, and it's developed candidates for leadership and to run.
[01:08:48]  Next week is our local elections.
[01:08:50]  What would you say to this audience about our elections next week?
[01:08:54]  That's our file date.
[01:08:55]  I love it.
[01:08:57]  The local matters more, and so you have to contest for it.
[01:09:01]  What do I tell them is scrap for every single vote.
[01:09:03]  The grassroots muscle really, really matters.
[01:09:06]  Get the signatures.
[01:09:07]  Run for the school boards.
[01:09:08]  Run for the local stuff.
[01:09:10]  And do not be deterred by all the sloppy tactics, right?
[01:09:13]  But make sure if you're going to run for office in a pagan state like New Mexico, which it is, I don't mean to offend you.
[01:09:20]  Come on, let's be honest.
[01:09:21]  You got to get your spiritual disciplines right.
[01:09:24]  You got to be fasting for your nation.
[01:09:26]  You got to be praying for help.
[01:09:28]  You have to seek wisdom from your pastors.
[01:09:30]  You have to attend church regularly.
[01:09:32]  You have to make sure you're not doing substances that might bring in the demonic.
[01:09:36]  If you are going to contest against a stronghold, you better take the spiritual disciplines very, very seriously.
[01:09:44]  That's what I would tell them.
[01:09:51]  Hello, Charlie.
[01:09:52]  My question is regarding the other candidates that are running.
[01:09:57]  You know, they have, I believe they have the thing that's going to happen tomorrow.
[01:10:01]  Will you be watching?
[01:10:03]  And also, Vivek, I remember you stating something at your event in Florida regarding him being in the cabinet.
[01:10:12]  What do you think about his ideas regarding education, you know, getting ready some of the, you know, some of the departments that we shouldn't have in the country?
[01:10:23]  Great question.
[01:10:23]  By the way, thank you for watching our event.
[01:10:25]  That means a lot.
[01:10:26]  Thank you.
[01:10:26]  Thank you.
[01:10:27]  Look, I think we should end the Republican primary.
[01:10:29]  This is a clown show.
[01:10:30]  I mean, this is a total joke.
[01:10:31]  Okay.
[01:10:32]  Now, I like Vivek a lot.
[01:10:34]  I want to make sure, I want to say something about the Republican primary.
[01:10:37]  I am sad.
[01:10:39]  I'm saddened by a great governor, Governor Ron DeSantis, who's ruining his political chances.
[01:10:45]  I don't like what I'm seeing right now.
[01:10:46]  This guy is a, I'm not going to do any spin stuff.
[01:10:49]  He's a great governor.
[01:10:50]  He is not a good presidential candidate.
[01:10:52]  He should bow out of the race and spend his $100 million to help Donald J. Trump win the presidency in November of 2024.
[01:11:01]  Period.
[01:11:03]  And when I say this, DeSantis people attack me as if I'm anti-DeSantis.
[01:11:08]  I'm actually trying to help you out, bro, based on all of your applause.
[01:11:12]  You could be a hero in the movement.
[01:11:14]  $100 million right now in Arizona, Georgia.
[01:11:17]  Do you know what a shot in the arm that would be?
[01:11:19]  Maybe a million for New Mexico.
[01:11:21]  How about that?
[01:11:21]  That would be great.
[01:11:22]  Right?
[01:11:22]  Do you know what a shot in the arm that would be?
[01:11:24]  And you're going to spend $100 million so you can go finish third in Iowa, man?
[01:11:29]  Redirect that.
[01:11:30]  He has $110 million in a super PAC right now.
[01:11:33]  I'm begging him.
[01:11:34]  Look like the hero.
[01:11:36]  People will not forget all this stuff.
[01:11:37]  They'll forget all this recent stuff.
[01:11:38]  They'll remember you as the guy that bowed out and then he said, you know what?
[01:11:42]  I want the Republic to be saved more than being the nominee because you're not going to be the nominee, pal.
[01:11:47]  It's not going to happen.
[01:11:48]  Okay?
[01:11:50]  And at his current pace, he's going to burn through the cash and we're all going to be mad at him because we're going to be like, well, we could have used that $100 million in Georgia.
[01:12:00]  We could have used that $100 million in Wisconsin.
[01:12:03]  So end the primary.
[01:12:04]  It's a clown show.
[01:12:05]  I will be watching the debate.
[01:12:06]  But more importantly, I'll be watching Donald Trump's interview with Tucker Carlson that night, which I think is way more entertaining.

=== Consider It A Blessing (04:54) ===

[01:12:17]  Hi, Charlie.
[01:12:19]  I'm Michaela, and I'm 11 years old.
[01:12:21]  And my question is, how do I survive middle school with all this going on?
[01:12:28]  So prioritize your church life.
[01:12:31]  This church is here to support you and love on you and tell you the truth.
[01:12:34]  Because, and this church, and I spoke to them, has an amazing youth ministry, a really solid, biblically based, terrific youth ministry.
[01:12:44]  Steve, your team has done a great job with that.
[01:12:46]  Really great.
[01:12:47]  But honestly, I'm not going to lie to you.
[01:12:50]  If you stand for truth, you will be attacked.
[01:12:54]  But consider that a blessing, as it says in the scriptures.
[01:12:58]  Consider it a blessing to be attacked.
[01:13:00]  And it doesn't feel that way when you get called names.
[01:13:04]  But instead, here's what I'm going to tell you.
[01:13:09]  You will be stronger because of it.
[01:13:11]  You will grow deeper in your faith.
[01:13:14]  You will grow closer to the Lord.
[01:13:17]  And then five years, 10 years from now, you'll look back at all the difficulty you had for standing for truth as the best thing that happened to you.
[01:13:25]  Come on, that's so good.
[01:13:27]  Let it go, Michaela.
[01:13:29]  Thank you.
[01:13:29]  And get involved with Turning Point USA.
[01:13:33]  I think there's young people here with Turning Point USA.
[01:13:36]  Is there young people here that's Morton?
[01:13:39]  You know, that wanted to.
[01:13:40]  Back there.
[01:13:41]  Where are they?
[01:13:41]  Stand up, guys.
[01:13:42]  Those are our heroes, I'll tell you.
[01:13:44]  They do a great job.
[01:13:44]  Where are they?
[01:13:45]  All the young people that are involved, stand up.
[01:13:48]  They do a great job.
[01:13:49]  Yeah.
[01:13:51]  How you doing, man?
[01:13:53]  Hey, good.
[01:13:53]  Thanks for coming out, Charlie.
[01:13:54]  And Pastor Steve, thanks for being a great pastor.
[01:13:57]  My question is, I'm a parent.
[01:13:59]  I have a teenage daughter.
[01:14:00]  And it was a really cool day today.
[01:14:02]  We had a Monday where the other parents that we hang out with, we all had the day off.
[01:14:05]  So we got to hang out and spend some time together.
[01:14:07]  The other couple, I love them.
[01:14:08]  I've known them for years.
[01:14:10]  They are letting their teenage daughters, two twin girls, go through the transitioning process.
[01:14:14]  Hormones, the whole thing.
[01:14:17]  And I've watched this process as a father, as somebody who used to be involved in youth ministry, and as a Christian, it breaks my heart.
[01:14:22]  And I don't want to let go of that family because I feel like we should be a light in their life.
[01:14:27]  You know, just that light.
[01:14:30]  But now the next step they're talking about is genital mutilation.
[01:14:34]  And I just don't know where we draw the line.
[01:14:36]  Do we continue to be an influence or do we step away?
[01:14:39]  And it's an emotional question.
[01:14:42]  How old are these young girls?
[01:14:44]  14.
[01:14:46]  Yeah.
[01:14:47]  You need to continue to be an influence and you need to do everything you possibly can to prevent that surgery from happening.
[01:14:52]  You need to.
[01:14:53]  And I know that's not easy, but you have to try to intervene.
[01:14:58]  You have to try to show parents videos of detransitioners.
[01:15:02]  I don't even think these parents understand.
[01:15:05]  I cannot say in church what genital mutilation actually is because it's worse than that.
[01:15:12]  How do I say this in a way?
[01:15:15]  I literally can't.
[01:15:16]  I can't, or else people will like.
[01:15:18]  They drill holes for young men to have the perception that they have female parts.
[01:15:27]  For young ladies, they will take a part of their elbow, take the skin off in an eight-hour surgery, and create an angioplasty-type environment on their private parts so that they have the appearance of a male part.
[01:15:45]  I'm being very careful the way I'm describing this.
[01:15:48]  The harm will be so much after general mutilation, they will be on painkillers for the next six to nine months, guaranteed.
[01:15:56]  The stress will be so much, almost guaranteed, they'll be on benzos, Prozact, Zoloft, or SSRIs, almost guaranteed.
[01:16:03]  They will have to be on some regimen of Lupron to suppress the puberty.
[01:16:08]  And then they're going to be upset.
[01:16:09]  Why am I so depressed?
[01:16:10]  So they'll get more antidepressants.
[01:16:13]  And then if, when they're 20, they say, boy, I wish I wouldn't have done that, everyone will say too bad.
[01:16:22]  Do everything you possibly can to try to intervene.
[01:16:25]  I'm sorry that those parents, I'm going to be very honest.
[01:16:28]  Those parents are abusing their kids.
[01:16:32]  They are active co-conspirators in the mutilation of their own children.
[01:16:38]  Pray.
[01:16:39]  Pray for the Lord to open an opportunity because it takes a truth teller to stop a lie.
[01:16:46]  And the final thing I'll say is this, is these doctors don't give a snot about these kids.
[01:16:51]  They just want to get paid.
[01:16:52]  And any doctor who will put a 14-year-old under general anesthesia to give them a hysterectomy should be put in gitmo for the rest of their life.
[01:17:04]  God bless you and thank you.
[01:17:10]  I'm going to do an online question real quick, Charlie.

=== Speech Is A Threat (06:32) ===

[01:17:12]  Can you briefly speak about the wokeness of our military?
[01:17:15]  Yeah, this is such an important question.
[01:17:17]  Yeah, I mean, wokeness destroys everything.
[01:17:22]  I'm very against this stupid proxy war that we have in Ukraine against Russia, by the way.
[01:17:27]  Why don't we secure our southern border before we're sending money to Ukraine?
[01:17:30]  It's the dumbest thing that we're doing.
[01:17:34]  Our military is not prepared for a kinetic war against China right now.
[01:17:37]  This is not an insult to those of you that are in the military, but I had a first-hand whistleblower come to me from Coronado.
[01:17:44]  And he said, Charlie, we were doing flight simulator exercises, and we missed all of our targets and all that stuff.
[01:17:50]  And he said, the person running it disciplined three people because they misgendered fellow service members during the exercise.
[01:18:04]  We have pride ceremonies on aircraft carriers.
[01:18:07]  We have gay poem readings that are happening, not a joke, on aircraft carriers, aircraft carriers.
[01:18:14]  We have gay PSAs.
[01:18:19]  So the military has become a laughingstock and a joke.
[01:18:24]  And military enrollment is down 30 to 40 percent.
[01:18:26]  We're like, oh, I wonder what's going on.
[01:18:29]  And you know what?
[01:18:30]  I'm saddened by saying this.
[01:18:32]  I do not support anybody I care about to get near the United States military.
[01:18:37]  Stay away from it right now.
[01:18:39]  Until we get a new commander-in-chief, I do not, and I know that that's a controversial thing to say, but I would not serve under a platoon commander of a transgender freak.
[01:18:51]  Are you kidding me?
[01:18:53]  Someone that has all those mental issues is going to be responsible for someone I care about in a theater of war?
[01:18:59]  Not going to happen.
[01:19:02]  And China wants it to happen.
[01:19:04]  They love seeing this woke stuff happening.
[01:19:07]  Look, this is very simple.
[01:19:10]  The military has a mission statement.
[01:19:11]  It's not a social experiment.
[01:19:13]  It's not a college campus.
[01:19:14]  It's not group therapy.
[01:19:16]  The military exists to defend the homeland and kill our enemies.
[01:19:19]  Anything that jeopardizes that mission should not be allowed in the United States military, especially this pride, transgender garbage.
[01:19:27]  Next question.
[01:19:31]  I just wanted to say I really appreciate you guys coming out here and telling all the truth that this, not just this state and this country, needs to hear.
[01:19:38]  But my question kind of is in that area of this view in life.
[01:19:46]  I am a 20-year-old man, and I have to deal with hiding my perspective in life because I could be under threat of being fired from my job or I could be canceled or just attacked personally.
[01:20:02]  How do you deal with the hypocrisy and people like who scoff at the oh, what is it?
[01:20:12]  I'm sorry.
[01:20:13]  The commandments.
[01:20:18]  The Constitution.
[01:20:20]  Our First Amendment.
[01:20:21]  We have a right to speak.
[01:20:23]  Yes.
[01:20:24]  But everyone seems to be taking that away from us, but it won't take it away from them because it applies to them.
[01:20:31]  That is such a good point.
[01:20:33]  So look, I'm glad you're here.
[01:20:37]  And what you have just articulated is why we no longer live in a free country.
[01:20:42]  Forget the laws for a second.
[01:20:43]  Forget all the government stuff.
[01:20:45]  When we have a nation where a 20-year-old comes up, he says, I'm afraid to voice my opinions because I'm going to lose my job, you are living in a weird, perverted version of Mao's America.
[01:20:56]  That is not a free country.
[01:20:57]  It's not.
[01:20:58]  And I know a lot of you probably feel the same way.
[01:21:00]  In fact, I think some of you might be sitting in the way back because you're like, I want to make sure nobody sees me here.
[01:21:09]  That's really wrong.
[01:21:10]  So let me tell you how we break it, and then I'm going to answer the question directly.
[01:21:14]  We break this by every one of us being the same person in public that we are in private.
[01:21:21]  Come on.
[01:21:22]  They cannot cancel us all.
[01:21:24]  That's easier said than done.
[01:21:26]  Easier said than done.
[01:21:27]  How do we deal with the hypocrisy?
[01:21:29]  They don't believe in speech.
[01:21:30]  They never have and they never will.
[01:21:31]  Speech is not a value of the left.
[01:21:33]  Speech is a threat to the left.
[01:21:35]  If we had free speech, we could disassemble their ideas.
[01:21:38]  We could speak about it.
[01:21:39]  They need to shut us up for their takeover of America.
[01:21:42]  That's why you must never stop telling and speaking the truth.
[01:21:46]  The truth is the spoken truth, the logos, as we say in the Greek, is so necessary to disassemble the regime of lies.
[01:21:56]  They don't believe in the First Amendment.
[01:21:58]  That's why they've indicted 18 people in Fulton County, Georgia for exercising their First Amendment rights.
[01:22:03]  This is why Douglas Mackey is going to federal prison for making a meme.
[01:22:08]  He made a meme, everybody.
[01:22:10]  And he's going to federal prison making fun of Hillary Clinton.
[01:22:12]  10 years in federal prison.
[01:22:15]  We have 60 of all the indictments.
[01:22:17]  You know what the cruelest indictment of them all is?
[01:22:20]  That it's getting almost no media coverage?
[01:22:22]  That if you have any extra money or if you have prayers to give, you need to pray for these people is 16 senior citizens in Michigan.
[01:22:30]  And I'm not seeing a lot of heads nod because a lot of people don't know this.
[01:22:34]  16 senior citizens in the state of Michigan who signed a piece of paper being an alternate elector, a constitutional right, have been indicted by the Michigan Attorney General and are facing 30 to 40 years in prison.
[01:22:47]  They are drawing social security.
[01:22:50]  These people have net worths of $30,000 to $40,000.
[01:22:53]  These are teachers.
[01:22:54]  There's an 81-year-old grandmother by the name of Rose Rook, 81 years old, who has been indicted facing 50 years in jail in Michigan because she signed a piece of paper as an alternate elector for Donald J. Trump.
[01:23:12]  They don't believe in speech.
[01:23:14]  At this point, the cruelty is the point.
[01:23:17]  They want to see us suffer in a show trial way.
[01:23:21]  I'm telling you right now, if we do not start speaking out loudly, defending these people, they're going to come for every single one of us in their own way.
[01:23:28]  They will kick you off social media.
[01:23:30]  They will fire you from your job because if you say it'll never come to me, man, that is just so wrong.
[01:23:36]  But even if it doesn't, fight for those who are under attack because it's the right thing to do.
[01:23:44]  So God bless you, man.

=== Cruelty Is The Point (02:51) ===

[01:23:45]  Thanks for being here.
[01:23:45]  We'll take a couple more.
[01:23:46]  Is that okay, Steve?
[01:23:47]  Yeah, okay.
[01:23:50]  Thank you, Pastor Steve.
[01:23:52]  Thank you, Charlie, for coming and speaking the truth.
[01:23:55]  Thank you.
[01:23:56]  Appreciate that.
[01:23:57]  My question has to do, you were mentioning about the birth rate going down, and it's happening all over the place.
[01:24:07]  My question is, China has an agenda that specifically talks about reducing the population of the world by 90%.
[01:24:19]  Do you think that all this transgender stuff, the puberty blockers where people cannot create, procreate anymore, has a lot to do with that agenda?
[01:24:32]  Probably, yeah.
[01:24:33]  I mean, I don't want to get too deep into their motives and their agendas.
[01:24:36]  We could be here all night, but it helps.
[01:24:38]  Of course, I mean, when 40% of young people are gay, that means we're going to depopulate ourselves.
[01:24:43]  Yeah, exactly.
[01:24:45]  Who needs mass sterilization when your whole generation is gay?
[01:24:50]  So I'm not saying if it's a plan, it is an effect of what happens when you have the LGBT takeover.
[01:24:55]  If you do not believe human beings are image bearers, but the Chinese do not, why wouldn't you eliminate 90% of the planet?
[01:25:02]  So I think that answers your question.
[01:25:04]  Thanks so much.
[01:25:05]  We'll finish everybody in line.
[01:25:07]  All right.
[01:25:07]  We'll take everybody and then we'll do that, okay?
[01:25:09]  Hi, Charlie.
[01:25:11]  I got placed on leave for not taking the vaccination for about seven months.
[01:25:17]  I worked for the labs, and a lot of people lost their jobs, good people that never, they didn't get brought back.
[01:25:25]  Now that I'm back, there's a big push for pronouns and for all of this crap.
[01:25:32]  Yeah.
[01:25:34]  What is your advice to stand up for the people that didn't get to come back and just make a difference in an evil workplace?
[01:25:45]  Yeah, first of all, I mean, we don't have enough time to really get into the vaccine thing.
[01:25:52]  The mandatory vaccine thing will go down as one of the great frauds in American history.
[01:25:57]  And how people have not been held accountable for that is just so infuriating to me.
[01:26:07]  My message is, you didn't take the shot, did you?
[01:26:09]  Where is that?
[01:26:11]  Then you're actually the lucky one.
[01:26:12]  That's your reward.
[01:26:13]  I hate to be so blunt.
[01:26:15]  The fact you didn't take the shot, that's kind of like your prize.
[01:26:18]  Because I wouldn't want to be one of those that took the shot.
[01:26:20]  I'm sorry if you did.
[01:26:21]  I hope it works out for you.
[01:26:23]  I hope it's great.
[01:26:31]  So that's your prize.
[01:26:33]  And you get to say, I stood when it wasn't easy.

=== Pray In Jesus Name (11:49) ===

[01:26:36]  Come on.
[01:26:37]  That is really important.
[01:26:42]  Okay, two more questions?
[01:26:44]  Okay.
[01:26:45]  Hi, my name's Ariana.
[01:26:48]  How old are you, Ariana?
[01:26:49]  I'm 15, gonna be 16.
[01:26:52]  And I've been blessed this past year and now this year to attend Legacy Academy.
[01:26:59]  But before that, I was in public school until sixth grade when my parents decided to homeschool me because of the environment I was being surrounded by.
[01:27:08]  So my question is, is now that I'm attending Legacy, you know, I'm in this Christ-like environment where I'm growing my relationship with Christ.
[01:27:17]  But how do I get involved to standing against what's coming into this world and attacking my generation?
[01:27:25]  You know, I have friends still from the public school and seeing the way they're changing.
[01:27:30]  How do I take a stand against that?
[01:27:32]  So you got to start a Turning Point USA chapter at Legacy Academy.
[01:27:35]  We got to get that done, Steve.
[01:27:36]  Okay.
[01:27:39]  Got to get that done.
[01:27:40]  Is Miss Torres in here?
[01:27:42]  Is Miss Torres or Coach Joyce?
[01:27:44]  Is any of our Polini, is anybody in here?
[01:27:48]  Don't tell me they're not in here.
[01:27:50]  Okay, hey, if you could get with her and let's start a chapter.
[01:27:53]  You're going to be the president.
[01:27:55]  I love that.
[01:27:57]  God bless you.
[01:28:01]  Thank you.
[01:28:03]  This will be the final question.
[01:28:05]  And as we're getting the final question, I just want to re-selfishly plug.
[01:28:09]  We're going to put the QR code up.
[01:28:11]  If everyone who's not subscribed or aware, let me just kind of give you an idea.
[01:28:15]  We do three hours of content a day.
[01:28:17]  Thank you for those of you that watch it.
[01:28:19]  It is the hardest thing I do every day to sound interesting for three hours, but we do a ton of research.
[01:28:26]  What is an action item, Charlie?
[01:28:28]  Please turn off the white noise cable news and find your news source from people that dive deeper.
[01:28:35]  Instead of like all this like sloppy stuff, oh, this go deeper.
[01:28:39]  Find like not just my show.
[01:28:41]  I'm biased, obviously, but Matt Walsh or somebody that is telling the truth, okay?
[01:28:46]  Steve Bannon, Dan Bongino, whatever, right?
[01:28:49]  Megan Kelly has some great stuff on the trans stuff.
[01:28:52]  And so if you follow that QR code with your phone, just type in Charlie Kirk Show, we'd love to earn, it's my favorite word in the English language, earn the chance to become your daily news source.
[01:29:01]  You have the final question?
[01:29:02]  Final question.
[01:29:03]  I'm checking out at a restaurant.
[01:29:05]  A transgender person's checking me out.
[01:29:08]  What can I say to them to be most effective?
[01:29:11]  As you're checking out at the restaurant, boy, just say, Jesus loves you.
[01:29:16]  And Jesus is the truth.
[01:29:18]  And remember, sometimes somebody in sin, what they need most is someone to tell them that they're in error.
[01:29:28]  And don't do it in a harsh way.
[01:29:29]  Don't do it in a mean way.
[01:29:31]  Don't do it in a cruel way.
[01:29:32]  But you see that trans person and say, I just want to let you know that there is a God who created you, that Jesus loves you.
[01:29:40]  And if you're not living as God intended you, and one day you feel like you're at rock bottom, just understand that there's hope for you.
[01:29:48]  That's it.
[01:29:50]  You don't have to make it a long speech.
[01:29:52]  But every chance you get when you see somebody that's living in error, share the gospel with them.
[01:29:58]  Share the truth with them.
[01:29:59]  Affirmation is what is hurting these people.
[01:30:02]  These are broken people.
[01:30:02]  We're all broken, right?
[01:30:04]  What the transgender movement has done is we are telling people to own their brokenness.
[01:30:10]  Think about how weird that is.
[01:30:12]  Do we go around and telling people that you identify as an adulterer or as a gambler or as a drinker?
[01:30:20]  No.
[01:30:21]  Your identity is in Jesus Christ alone.
[01:30:24]  That's what I think you should say.
[01:30:26]  Steve, we want to wrap it up.
[01:30:28]  You know what?
[01:30:29]  First of all, can we thank Charlie for coming all the way to New Mexico?
[01:30:34]  Yeah.
[01:30:36]  I'm just going to applaud you.
[01:30:39]  That was great.
[01:30:49]  So, here's how we're going to wrap this up.
[01:30:54]  One of the things that Charlie Kirk believes in is the Lord Jesus.
[01:30:58]  And one of the things that we talked about in the past is that if you don't know Jesus, you can.
[01:31:06]  Because he's the truth.
[01:31:08]  And it'll help us not be ashamed of his word or who he is.
[01:31:13]  Because Jesus is the word.
[01:31:16]  And the Bible says, if you're ashamed of me before men, I'll be ashamed of you before our Father in heaven.
[01:31:22]  And the only way to not be ashamed is to publicly declare the Lord Jesus in your life.
[01:31:30]  I'm not asking you right now to be saved.
[01:31:32]  I'm asking to make Jesus Lord of your life.
[01:31:35]  And if you do that, he'll save you from eternal death.
[01:31:38]  He'll save you from the absurdities that's being taught.
[01:31:43]  And that's why some of you, maybe when Charlie was talking, you felt uncomfortable.
[01:31:50]  You can't blame the truth.
[01:31:52]  You have to blame the lie that you've been believing.
[01:31:56]  Because the truth sets us free.
[01:31:57]  He said it over and over again.
[01:32:00]  And one of Charlie's hearts is that people would go to heaven and not hell.
[01:32:04]  That's why he fights.
[01:32:06]  I believe he's called to this.
[01:32:08]  I'm glad he's not running for an office.
[01:32:10]  Seriously, I am.
[01:32:12]  I hope and pray that he stays right where God has him because he's an influencer in our world today.
[01:32:21]  You want to add anything to that?
[01:32:23]  You want to say anything?
[01:32:27]  You can say, you want to add anything?
[01:32:28]  No, I'll just say, if you're not yet in a relationship with Jesus Christ, it's the most important thing.
[01:32:33]  Some of you might have come here tonight for the politics, but I want you to leave with Jesus.
[01:32:37]  Some of you might have come here tonight because you're like, I like Charlie.
[01:32:39]  He does those videos on Trump.
[01:32:41]  I want you to leave with Jesus.
[01:32:42]  Because you're going to have a time where you face the Almighty.
[01:32:45]  And only knowing Jesus Christ will get you into eternity.
[01:32:48]  So here's what I want to do before we say goodbye.
[01:32:52]  First of all, I want to thank you for being here.
[01:32:54]  I think it sends a message in New Mexico because you know they're watching.
[01:33:00]  Hello, Governor.
[01:33:04]  She needs Jesus.
[01:33:05]  Oh, she needs Jesus bad.
[01:33:12]  And all of our people that watch our services, they need Jesus.
[01:33:16]  So if you're here with just a moment of reverence, if we could just have every head bow just for one second, and you say, hey, preacher, would you pray with me?
[01:33:23]  Charlie, would you pray with me?
[01:33:25]  Man, I've never really given Jesus my life.
[01:33:29]  But you know what?
[01:33:30]  I'm understanding more and more that I need to.
[01:33:34]  And there's no condemnation here.
[01:33:35]  We're all for you.
[01:33:36]  People that are right with God, they want you in the family.
[01:33:40]  Maybe you're here and you say, you know, I came because I'm involved and I'm a fighter.
[01:33:46]  But man, I haven't walked with Jesus the way I should have.
[01:33:49]  I know who he is, but now I need to make him really Lord of my life.
[01:33:55]  If that's you in Jesus' name and you say, hey, would you pray with us?
[01:34:00]  Would you pray with me?
[01:34:03]  Right where you're standing, if you just do us this honor, that it's really honoring Christ.
[01:34:09]  That if we confess Jesus before men, he'll confess us before our Father in heaven.
[01:34:14]  And what I'm going to ask you to do in just a moment is a form of confession.
[01:34:19]  It's a type of confession.
[01:34:21]  So if you're here and you say, Pastor Steve, Charlie, would you pray with me?
[01:34:26]  I really do need to get my life right with God.
[01:34:29]  If that's you in Jesus' name, would you do us an honor?
[01:34:31]  So we know if we're praying for anybody, would you, right where you're standing, just lift your hand and I'm going to pray with you right there.
[01:34:38]  We're going to pray with you.
[01:34:39]  God bless you.
[01:34:39]  Thank you.
[01:34:40]  Thank you.
[01:34:40]  Thank you, sir.
[01:34:42]  Who else?
[01:34:42]  Thank you.
[01:34:43]  Thank you up top.
[01:34:45]  Thank you over here.
[01:34:45]  I see your hand.
[01:34:46]  Thank you.
[01:34:48]  God bless you.
[01:34:48]  God bless you, young man.
[01:34:51]  God bless you, sir.
[01:34:52]  God bless you, young lady.
[01:34:53]  God loves people, but you'll never know his love till you say yes.
[01:34:57]  Is there anybody else just by lifting your hand, you say, why you want me to lift my hand?
[01:35:00]  Because it gives you a moment to say, thank you.
[01:35:02]  I don't care what anybody else thinks.
[01:35:05]  I fear God more than anything else.
[01:35:08]  Thank you, sir.
[01:35:10]  Thank you.
[01:35:10]  Thank you, ma'am.
[01:35:12]  Anybody else?
[01:35:13]  I'm just looking across.
[01:35:15]  Thank you.
[01:35:15]  I could tell you a sad story, but I believe the Spirit of God is big enough to speak to each one.
[01:35:22]  And we just have to have the courage to say yes.
[01:35:27]  Anybody else before we close?
[01:35:29]  Say, Preacher, this is my day.
[01:35:32]  Charlie, would you include me?
[01:35:33]  Thank you.
[01:35:34]  Would you include me in your prayer?
[01:35:36]  So many hands.
[01:35:37]  Thank you.
[01:35:38]  I see your hand waving.
[01:35:38]  I see your hands.
[01:35:39]  God bless you.
[01:35:41]  God bless you.
[01:35:41]  I see your little hand.
[01:35:44]  Anybody else?
[01:35:47]  Thank you, sir.
[01:35:48]  Do you want to pray?
[01:35:49]  You want me to pray?
[01:35:50]  Father, in Jesus' name, I lift up each one.
[01:35:52]  So many hands were raised.
[01:35:54]  And you wouldn't even think in this environment that it would be, but truth will set us all free and keep us free.
[01:36:03]  So, Father, I pray that they'll experience your freedom in a way that they never have in their hearts and minds.
[01:36:10]  And they will stand and fight to stay free.
[01:36:15]  Because the oppressed always vote in their oppressors.
[01:36:18]  But God, you lead us to a place of wisdom, freedom, and eternal life.
[01:36:26]  Bless each one in Jesus' name.
[01:36:28]  If you lifted your hand, I want you to pray this prayer loud with me right where you're standing.
[01:36:32]  You won't be praying alone.
[01:36:34]  I'm going to ask everybody in here that's right with God to pray with us in support of them.
[01:36:39]  And maybe you didn't lift your hand, but you should have.
[01:36:42]  We're going to introduce you to our friend Jesus because he's the only Savior of the world.
[01:36:46]  Your church affiliation, your church attendance, your grandparents, your parents cannot cause you to be born again.
[01:36:53]  That's a personal thing between you and Jesus Christ.
[01:36:56]  Would you pray this prayer with us aloud, loud enough for your ears to hear your voice?
[01:37:01]  The Bible says we believe in our hearts and confess with our mouths.
[01:37:05]  So would you pray this with us right now?
[01:37:06]  Would you pray, God?
[01:37:08]  I choose to believe in your son Jesus.
[01:37:12]  And I believe you raised him from the dead to give me a new life.
[01:37:19]  So with my heart, according to your word, I believe that.
[01:37:24]  And now with my mouth, I willingly confess.
[01:37:29]  Jesus, be Lord of my life.
[01:37:33]  Now I thank you for saving me, for forgiving me.
[01:37:38]  I choose you, God.
[01:37:40]  Thank you for choosing me.
[01:37:42]  In Jesus' name, amen and amen.
[01:37:45]  Let's thank the Lord.
[01:37:49]  Can we thank God for Charlie being here?
[01:37:52]  Let's thank him one more time.
[01:37:54]  Thank you.
[01:38:02]  Thank you guys for being here.
[01:38:03]  He'll come back.
[01:38:04]  And when he does, we'll fill this place up again.
[01:38:07]  Thank you so much.
[01:38:08]  Have a good night.
