In this debut episode of The Brad Jurkovich Podcast, Dr. Brad Jurkovich sits down with Abigail DeJarnatt, founder and CEO of Counteract USA, to reflect on the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk and its ripple effects across the conservative Christian movement.
Abigail shares her firsthand experiences with Charlie just days before his death at the Build Up Korea conference, where his final message centered not on politics, but on the transforming power of the gospel. Together, Brad and Abigail discuss the urgent need for Christians to integrate faith and public engagement, the spiritual battles facing Gen Z, and the resolve it takes to stand firm in a culture often opposed to biblical truth.
From Abigail’s own story of surrender and the founding of Counteract USA, to her challenge for pastors to feed their congregations deep, gospel-centered teaching, this conversation delivers a call to courageous leadership, cultural clarity, and unwavering hope in Jesus Christ.
